Comments Thread For: Thurman Beats Guerrero in Fireworks Filled Bout

I say bring on Thurman/Khan, winner gets the last shot to defeat Floyd.

That would be a great fight. Khan may box Thurman's ears off. Or Thurman may become the next Drago... Khan needs a bigger fight for the May / Pac winner, so make it happen.

Wtf? Does Marv Albert need to get his eyes checked. He kept saying Thurman was landing when he was missing.

But yeah, the commentators were riding Thurman dck.

Yea I was pretty annoyed at first. I had Thurman up 3-2 after 5...4-2 after 6.
But they were making it that Thurman was completely in control ..when it was actually close the first 5 rounds.

Thurman by decapitation. If he catches Khan with any shot he caught Guerrero with tonight, Khan is taking a nap lol

Great fight. Saved the card after that stinker between Broner and Molina. Thurman is a real talent and can see other top guys avoiding him after this. He did seem to tire after round 10. Maybe he needs to work on his cardio but power is undeniable. The Ghost certainly acknowledged the power. If Thurman can get fights against other champs he can make some noise for sure.

Impressed by Thurman tonight, wish guerrero would have pushed the pace in the earlier rounds but i guess thats down to how good thurman was tonight. Love to see him with Maidana next, would be a war.

Guerrero didn't look the same as he has in the past BECAUSE of Thurman. Keith deserves credit for beating a world class welterweight.

Well Guerrero didn't look good ever did he? Because he beat up Andre Berto? The Andre Berto that had already been beaten up by Victor "I'll quit if you hit me" Ortiz... That was stopped by Soto Carass... He has always had balls, but I mean come on. He is a decent durable inside ****er. He was obviously put there for Thurman to stand with and ****, instead he ran.

Same thing with Broner. They put him in there with a guy that is slow as dirt, willing to take punishment, and he just played it safe and pecked away, instead of getting in with combinations.

These fights were both setup as showcase fights where they were suppose to impress in.

Neither guy impressed really. Terrible way to start off a serious attempt to bring boxing back to network TV.

Also, terrible add placement. Anyone else notice the #runallnight add being show first, while the fighters are running from their opponents?

On the upside the production value was fairly impressive, and some of the things they tried to do could be cool.

Apparently Mares is fighting his sparring partner.

There's no way Khan is fighting Thurman. Thurman has almost as much speed as Khan and similar boxing ability with more power. Too risky for Khan.

Good fight.

After the KD, they started riding ghosts ***c.. Saying he was turning the fight around and "what a comeback"

At the end, a B class fighter outboxed a C class boxer... That's it


Please don't hype him up to superstar status. That's waht people did to ortiz and even Guerrero to justify them fighting Floyd....

He's good on his level, that's it
