    Great showing by Thurman, he showed alot of different things clearly won but even in losing Guerrero didn't look bad and gave an excellent performance.

    AB did what he had to do to get the win but not enough to really impress and Molina looked more flat than usual to me.

          The way they jumped right into the fight was way better than that backstory ****.

            I also have to say Sugar Ray Leonard did a very good job as an analyst. Albert needs some work

              It takes effort from two boxers to make a fight entertaining.

              I thought Molina would be better and that Broner would look better than he did against that better version of Molina.

              But he did fine. Enough to win comfortably without ever looking too impressive. He doesn't seem to have much pop though, which is a big problem if he can't make 140 anymore. Even if he can, he's not troubling most of the top JWWs with that little power.

                Can't get em all right brah. If you want, I'm sure I can dig around and sleuth for your predictions on the Lara-Canelo fight and then compare them to mine.

                We know how that is going to end up so let's just call it a wash.

                  At least he didn't do it in the last round like Broner (which made a boring fight even worse), so I won't complain about it. It looked like Ghost was the one not trying to get hit in the 12th with all the smothering he was doing. Regardless, the fight was held at a pretty crisp pace. I wish Ghost would've started pressuring earlier so we could've seen what Thurman's inside game looks like when he's fresh. Whoever fights him next should try that route if they're capable.

                      Kenny Bayless did a good job in this fight... Glad he didn't jump the gun and stopped the fight. I would've been furious. As Guerrero was clearly fighting though hurt.

                      But he did a good job this fight.
