    he'd do better than the commonly touted names Amir and manny

    still got Floyd beating em all

    for all of Thurman's flaws he's a natural bodypuncher, which should be an asset vs Floyd

    he's reckless but so are Amir and manny. His ring instincts are great unlike Amir's

                  After seeing how damned well Amir boxed Collazo, using his speed and movement, and cutting down his combos,*I could see him perhaps beating Thurman quite easily. He beat the crap out of Collazo, and basically didn't even get touched. That Amir Khan is going to damned tough for anyone to beat.

                  Thurman isn't big enough to get the fight unfortunately. I would like to see Thurman fight Brook, but it seems like Brook is ducking him. Thurman Brook is a logical fight, but maybe Thurman isn't that interested in that fight either.

                  Thurman is nasty, but I see speedy fighters being a problem for him. He has power, but he's quite slow, and the fastest guys around should be able to give him lots of problems.

                    I think Thurman/khan is 50/50

                    You can make a plausible case for both guys

                      How is Thurman slow? He has pretty good hand speed and can throw fast combinations. He's in no way a slow boxer.

                      Khan's performance over Collazo doesn't really tell me anything about how he would do against Thurman. They're like two completely different fighters.
