    Yes. Thurman is a true character and the fact that he is both so intelligent and a straight up killa is what makes Thurman...Thurman.

      I don't think hippies get into boxing.
      That must be part of a chart or something.

            He plays the flute every morning, feeds birds, reads books under a tree indian style, rides a moped, bought a Prius, likes to meditate for at least and hour a day, doesn't drink or do drugs.

            Will this type of guy be able to be a star in boxing or would he be to weird to have a fanbase?

            Does Pac embrace the hip hop lifestyle? He's more popular than Floyd.

              lol, I said that before Pac is like a bunny rabbit bouncing around and ****.

              Funny thing is Dontaeblackpowernationboxing thinks Thurman is making fun of Pac, Thurman is not making fun at all he is just showing the type of style pac uses which is hard to time and awkward.

                Floyd is more popular with the American urban youth than Pacquiao, so is Broner. Floyd and Broner have more instagram followers than Manny.

                    If he keeps winning fights by KO he will be a star and he already is well known as a good fighter. I never knew any of that stuff about him but it doesn't matter. That stuff you talk about does no harm to anyone. Thurman fights about 4 times a year instead of only twice a year like many of today's boxers. I like that and I like watching Thurman fight. I think he will be a star.

                      Not drinking, not doing drugs, meditation, etc are actually warrior traits and beneficial in a sport like boxing.
