Comments Thread For: Thurman Stays Patient: Big Fights Need Time To Blow Up

[DreamerUSA]

robert scared the **** out of thurman lol, he cant believe guerrero took his shot and bucked em down in the championship rounds lol Thurman literally went from calling everyone out Mr "all about knockouts" to I gotta be patient and I dont need a knockout lmfao.

SHOOK he thought all figths were gonna be easy D level figths lol till he ran into guerrero who a B- fighter lol now got thurman rethinking himself and his career.

Yeah I could see how putting a guy on the canvas and completely dominating a fight could shake a fighter.

[Fetta]

Yep!

Said it yesterday, NSB serioulsy thinks there is more talent then there is in boxing.

They want Thurman to fight big fights now so in a year they can complain just like they are now cause there will be no one and no big fights left.

Cut the b.s. and fight.

Khan, Brook, Porter, Thurman, Garcia, etc are all at about the same level. There's nothing currently brewing that the public (casual fans) is clamoring for. So why wait?

[FloydvsPac]

What Thurman did to Guerrero was pretty shocking. By 2016, he'll be the 147 king. Neither Floyd nor Manny would take the risk.

[icha]

i just can't understand why a fighter the caliber of thurman would fight amir khan's leftover's

a fighter under AL Haymon cant get a good fight...

[tiliheels]

boxers are duckers..roy jones didnt tell hopkins its not big enough yet...he didnt tell toney its not big enough yet...floyd didnt tell corrales it's not big enough yet..neither did he tell judah that!

u fight the best and get a name and earn "BIG ENOUGH"..that goes for haymon, gp, tr, hbo or wat ever fighters that are not accepting the big fights...s/o to adrien broner even in a loss..he fought a top ten 10 ww w/o a title even being onthe line when he could have just begged around for title shots! s/o to hopkins took on a monster and didnt tell u it wasnt big enough yet and he's 50....i hope erroll spence ko's this dude..this talk is no good for boxing..he'd get mayweather money and do just like chino, victor, and robert

shocking? did u not watch the fight robert was in prior or directly after that one? stop actin like robert is anything other than a guy that got a "post jaile tune up fight" with floyd mayweather...he took a year off and got worse...and the truth is he even walked keith in to counters keith only won bc of handspeed and footspeed...he's nothing more than an exchange fest type fighters..he wont be king of anything vs technique that means business

it wasnt dominant due to who ghost is he's a hit and get hit guy....and he hit thurman from round 1 to 12 while have slower hands and slower feet...thurman looked completely am'ish at times just feinting right into counters from a guy no one considers a counterpuncher...i knew he would win but i was expecting much more

[sicko]

His time is coming, it is almost here actually and at only 26 years old that is very impressive that he worked his way up this fast. Also already making big money every time he fights. But you have to respect the fact that he is just not happy with the good Paydays he wants more and he wants to be the best and prove that he is the best.

Can't overlook Collazo and end up like Victor Ortiz lol take care of Collazo first and I'm sure that next fight is finally going to be the big one that he wanted

[rasdun]

Collazo is a 30-1 dog. nuff said. Khan, Porter, Brook, ; even Alexander or Maidana. There are plenty of fighters - and there should be more (Bradley, Rios, etc.) but that's a whole notha argument.

no need for fights to get bigger or "marinate" just make good fights!
