    I think if they fought now Thurman would take floyds 0

    I see this kid blowing up into a huge superstar in the future after floyd and manny retire. He got the talent can box got power is young hungry and got the whole package to be a star and his interviews are interesting.
    I think if he fought floyd now he could be the first to hand him that 0.

    I think the Thurman hypetrain comes to an almighty stop the second he steps up just like the Porter one did.

    Decent enough talent more talented than Porter but he is very green. He needs a few more years to develop.
    I'd keep him well away from Floyd, Manny and Marquez especially.
    Too predictable and will get timed darting in.

        I agree, but people used to say the same thing about pacquiao. I think Thurman is going to surprise a lot of people. I sense he's a special talent, he just needs tougher opponents to bring it out of him. I'd love to see him against Maidana, I think he'll put a beating on chino.

          he dominates has been and never was and the c+ level fighters he face gave him problems lol karass, diaz, chaves, just wait till he faces someone in the B+ level he will be sitting on his ass like all the rest of em.

            Few people even knew who Manny was before he beat Barrera. When he started getting hype, he was already very proven. He was never in the same situation Thurman is right now.

              he starts real slow and gets knocked around
              Thurman would beat Maidana though. Maidana ducked him twice. He chose to fight Soto-Karrass and Josesito Lopez instead of Thurman.

                  That is something that no one has been able to do yet. Probably won't ever happen.

                    Here we go again. He seems a solid fighter, but not sure why he became the chosen one for everyones hopes and dreams all of the sudden.

                    Lets see who he fights next and how he does with increased competition.
