      Thurman does have to foot work and ability to fire off combinations from any angle/direction to make it interesting. If he fought the way he did against Zaveck & Bundu then he would stand a good chance. Just non stop circular and in-and-out movement.

        I said that the only guy who has the tools to beat Floyd is Amir Khan. If Amir Khan shows up at his best, at his 100%, it would be a very tough night for Floyd, probably the toughest night of his life.... And if Khan shows up at his 100%, he can beat Floyd.
        Yup - your emphasis on tools makes what you wrote more than reasonable.

          There really is no risk because he possess no threat, he also has no fanbase or a cult following, his resume is not up to scratch and there is no way or no point in seeking a fight with Mayweather.

            His strategy would become a tragedy.

              I highly disagree, but again it is a waste of time to discuss.

                So Thurman noticed that Floyd likes to lure you into throwing a jab so that he can do the pull counter? Wow. What incredible insight.

                I like One Time but come on.

                  ease is an overstatement..he was caught several times early as well as late..his footwork was terrible and he feinted continually with his hands instead of his entire body allowing him to throw himself off balance..i stopped the tape a 25 plus times when i broke downt aht fight to mark when he was open for a straight right hand while he was attacking...i could see floyd smacking his nose with a right and just pulling back admiring his work while keith has no answer..he's not ready

                    nice to see mayweather finally gettin the respect he deserves on these boards..ppl arent buying the hype anymore keith..ww division will lose a kingpin in floyd when he leaves..unless spence is truly great who ever takes over will just be a manager on watch...there is not real talent like floyd there..and keith wont grow into that..he's not a smart boxer..he's limited dont let circling the ring vs bundo make u think he has educated feet..when he has to box in the pocket the guy is nothing but a hook artist with sloppy technique and an open face
