      Good fight last night. Thurman did a very good job last night. Good hand speed, power, footwork. Still has some things to work on. Personally, I see he loads up on many of his shots, and really telegraphs his punches. Really stiffens up when he throws his punches and kind of pulls his lead hand back before throwing it. He got away with it last night, since Guerrero doesn't have very good defense, not a lot of head movement.

      Think Guerrero fought the wrong fight last night, tried to keep it at a distance. Too slow to try and box against Thurman, flat footed and slow hand speed. Guerrero was supposed to press from the first round and fight on the inside, and on the ropes. You take away Thurman's speed and power this way. Had success the last 2-3 rounds, but too late.

      Would like to see Thurman against a good pressure fighter, Maidana or Porter. Then against a boxing type, Khan. Two more big fights, and he's ready for Mayweather. Nonetheless, good win for Thurman last night, very good performance.

                Maidana has a much improved and actually really good jab and changes levels behind while closing the distance which would help versus Thurman. Ghost was using no jab, stayed at the same level with zero head movement.
