Comments Thread For: Thurman Breaks Down 5/2, Sides With Mayweather

[elishua F]

When Thurman is done with his career or even before that time, he should be a commentator for HBO or Showtime or similar. He is a pretty smart guy who has solid analytical skills. No doubt he could do well. Start out as guest commentator.

replace roy jones. im all for it. keith is the realest dude in boxing next to paulie, you get straight realness with them, no tired a$$ cliche responses.

thurman also has interviews touching on spirituality and how music affects the brain lol, guy is definitely not your ordinary boxer. i would love for the PPV star baton from floyd and manny gets passed to him. he will be a great ambassador for the sport.

as much as i love floyd, the guy sucks at being the "face" of boxing, theres really no substance with him, its the same sht. thurman being the face of it is the best that can happen.

Thurman maybe right but he forgot something..If one or more hard punches landed on Mayweather's head he might switch to survival mode..His brain is not conditioned to beat Manny Pacquaio since the beginning and might tell him that his health is the most important of all..On the other hand if Floyd has already conquered his fear of Manny then he has a chance of winning...

a couple of hardshots and floyd will fight pacquiao, and in turn pacquiao will beat floyd even more, like pacquiao did to bradley

it's a vicious cycle and to come close to beating pacquiao takes focus like marquez showed

Indeed. Thurman is one of my favorite fighters right now and seems sharp.

I like Thurman, he speaks good sense, weather you agree with it or not. I'm not saying he's right all the time, I'm just saying he speaks logically.

[Mr. Punch-Out!!]

glad ...he welcomes the winner of Floyd-PAC...he got a lot of exposure on NBC. So it's definitely possible that he might get the not over Khan... It depends as well on how Khan does against his next opponent.

At this point, Thurman probably makes the most sense for the winner of this match so he just may get a shot at them next.

Pacquiao's hard shots will trigger some kind of reaction from Floyd...and I doubt it will be a good one (for Floyd, that is).

I agree with everything except calling the fight a mega fight. I've heard so much nonsense and ******ed bable about how the fight is better now than a half decade ago and I just lol.

It is a mega fight. If you think otherwise you must be living in a cave somewhere.
