    This right here man. Kovalev was walking Bernard down the whole fight and pinning him down against the ropes. Thurman was on his back foot most of the fight, there's really little comparison between the strategy exhibited by both men. Also one was facing a decent fighter with little experience at the elite level while the other beat a ****ed legend of the sport.

      i already told you, thurman was happy doing the minimum to win the rounds vs a limited old fighter, he won all of them, but it bored me.
      i've watched him since the quintana fight (which was for some kinda regional wbo light middleweight belt)

        I don't think Thurman was exposed, nobody is going to get the knockout every time but the comparisons in that video are totally ridiculous and as for the comment, Kovalev did win every round against Hopkins, he didn't knock him out but he did dominate him.

          At 4:30 Bundu says he felt Thurman faded in the later rounds.
          Again, "He's a big puncher, if I would've traded with him, I would have gotten the worst of it"- Leonard Bundu

          "He still has power even later in the fight. I didn't take no chances, HANDS UP"- Leonard Bundu

          those are leonards bundu's own words.

                I made a youtube playlist of his fights in order. I can post them if you want. He fights like that. It depends on what the opponent brings. If they box, hell punch and if they punch hell box and counter punch. Thats just the way he fights and for him to even have ko's against fighters like karass, who alexander went the distance with, quintana, julio diaz, who some fighters at top welterweight rankings went the distance with or struggled, yet keith thurman is a "bum" and got "exposed". Thats freakin hilarious. Ya just mad ya homeboy maidana was scared to fight thurman cuz he had "too many kos".
