Does anyone feel Thurman will actually be a disappointment when he steps up?

[bojangles1987]

I swear none of these people ripping on Thurman have ever watched him fight. That's how he always fights, with lots of movement, looking for counter punching opportunities. He only goes wild when he has his opponent hurt or if he's responding after eating a good punch. Bundu was never hurt.

Fights like this happen to everyone. They're good learning experiences. No one is Mayweather or Pacquiao in 20 fights, not even Mayweather and Pacquiao.

Struggled?

In what world?

He put on a clinic man. I've been telling people Bundu was akward and tough. he showed another side of himself tonight.

I've seen people suggesting Bundu is better than Thurman. WTF world does NSB live in?

[SN!PER]

I'm going to laugh when these guys bet against Thurman thinking he's overrated, then knocks out Bradley & Maidana and they shit their pants.

I wonder if those people who said Thurman never moves like that even watched his match with Soto Karass. He was moving like that the entire time.

What some people need to realize is that this was the kind of opponent Thurman wanted since he never got an answer from Devon. He wanted a solid opponent who could be a challenge to him and that's what he got. He clearly beat another tough undefeated opponent and people knock him for it? That's crazy!

To be honest, I don't see Porter, Brook, or Maidana doing any better against Bundu than Thurman.

Let's wait to seeThurman fight Maidana and all types of questions will be answered.

I don't think Thurman struggled at all last night. Sure, Bundu put up a better fight than expected but Keith handled him well. This was one of those "win now, look better next time" kinda fights. Hard to "look good" against an awkward guy like Bundu

lol people calling Bundu a bum obviously don't follow boxing properly. The guy was a proven top class amateur, unbeaten as a pro and never dropped or even hurt before yesterday.

The reaction to this fight just shows how desperate people are for Thurman to not turn out to be the real deal, he puts on a clinic and shuts out a quality fighter and people say he's been exposed.

[bojangles1987]

All these fake ass Thurman fans who are Pacquiao fans would have never been Pacquiao fans if they watched him from the beginning, when he lost to worse fighters than Bundu.

"He lost to a bum, he's a bum, he's an overrated protected hype job, what's so special about him?"

If this is how they react to shutting someone out, I'd imagine they'd never forgive ATGs who lost to worse fighters or struggled worse than Thurman did with worse fighters.

That's part of it, but I think the perception that Thurman was just supposed to walk right through Bundu is making people say dumb stuff too

[John Locke]

As for Thurman vs Marquez, if Thurman fights like he did yesterday, stays disciplined and uses his feet, I think he beats Marquez. The size and age disadvantage would be too much for Marquez to overcome against such a good and versatile fighter.
