    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 hear you.

      One thing I do know is if Khan gets hit on the button by Thurman, we are seeing The Bernie, Harlem Shake, Booty Dew, and the Bambi on Ice rolled up into one epic dance.

        Thurman's been shaken once that I can remember and that was against soto Karass who, according to that bkb glove, hits harder than rosado and Stevens. Both middleweights. Shut up virg.

          Khan doesn't really punch with conviction (at least not anymore), and even if he did, he isn't a big puncher. His punches sting from the speed, but they don't seem to cause serious damage. Thurman will not fold from Khan's power.

            soto karass is a very big guy with good power. karass would KO khan without a doubt in my mind.

                    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:

                      Thurman hasn't been stopped in over 100 amateur fights, I know he's exchanged knockdowns with Charles Hatley, who was one of the best amateur welterweights a few years ago, but very few fighters haven't been knocked down in their careers.
