      Nah, go to a forum dedicated to any sport and you'll see equal ******ation. Sports makes people say dumb things, no matter which sport you talk about.

        I'll agree with that. One fight doesn't mean a whole lot especially given the layoff & surgery.

        Be funny though if he continues to box in this fashion and runs into the other end of the spectrum where Erislandy Lara's at and no one wants to fight him for those reasons.

            He always utilises a lot of movement. He has in all his fights except the southpaw that beat Paul Williams all those years ago.

            Maybe a lot of fans only watch highlight reels these days.
            If I KO Bundu in 4, I'll fight Amir Khan.

            His mouth got him the boos.

              Paying customers have every right to let the fighter know that they are not enjoying what he's doing in the ring.

              Professional boxing exists solely to entertain. If the fans are not entertained, our sport will cease to exist.

                He is absolutely right

                He got booed

                Khan didn't

                It was probably khan fans booing or Mexicans who are known for such disgraceful booing

                They threw stuff at broner after a war with maidana

                  There's only so much you can do against bundu, no one is going to look "good" fighting him. Keith dominated the guy the whole fight, I don't know what else people expect from the guy. They need to get him a top ten guy though.

                    I do not feel bad for Thurman. Every time you see him he telling you how great he is. He the one that put so much emphasis on knockouts being important.

                      No they cheered him like crazy at the weigh in, but Thurman promised everyone a KO and called out Floyd then put on somewhat a 'dull' performance thats why he got booed I suppose.


                      Anyway screw them fans., Thurman did pretty well IMO.
