" You better watch his(Thurmanns) chin too"--Virgil Hunter

[sicko]

OK well let Khan fight him and expose his "Weakness" that you know he has.

Fan of Hunter but he is reaching a bit bring up Amateurs. Forget talking about it, make the fight happen and lets see it get done in the ring.

He is likely talking about Demetrius Andrade having Thurman number in the Amateurs...that is not saying much Andrade had everybody number during his Amateur career in the US

Ness was asking about Thurman

Hunter says people want to see Thurman vs Khan and many feel Keith knocks Khan out.

but he also implies he's known Thurman for a long time and has seen Keith Thurman dropped in the amateurs,

"but there are things I know about Keith Thurman that I wouldn't say, that you better watch his chin too. I know him from way back from the amateurs, I can tell you some things that will shock you, but i'll leave it alone" -Hunter

I'm not convinced Virgil isn't right. Maybe there's a reason Thurman didn't press the issue more against Bundu.

Thing is, even if he does have kind of a weak chin, as long as he's realistic about it, he can go far.

Look at Cotto.

That said, I'll go with Thurman by KO over Khan. Algeri let him off the hook a couple of times last night and I don't think Keith would have.


War One Time!!

I dunno, Thurman dont come off as someone with an incredible chin but at the same time I dont think its as bad as Hunter is trying to imply

Also he might have been hurt in the amateurs, but so has this guy:

Yeah but that is Felix Savon, that guy is LEGEND he literally was destroy everybody back then in the Amateurs and Olympics

LOL why does hunter always get butt hurt when the topic of Khans chin comes up?

[JulianQ]

Would love to see Khan versus Thurman. Will be an action packed fight. I think Thurman will put enough pressure on Khan to force Khan to sit down on his punches more to earn respect. There's no way Khan can run and move against Thurman like we saw against Algieri - that's a losing game plan. Khan would have to stand his ground and sit down on his punches more.

I don't see the fight going more than 6 rounds either way. Would favour Thurman but Khan definitely has a chance.

If Thurmans chin is glass then what is Khans in VIrgils opinion? Mechanical pencil graphite?

hahaha

more like Aluminum foil.

Khan is a clown plain and simple, he so sh.it he can't even have a good showing against a cherry picked opponent smh.

thurman puts bambi on ice again...
