I think Thurman is good and solid, just not elite. I think he will have massive problems with Maidana, Brook and Porter, i would still favour him vs Khan, he can knock Khan out easily.
How do some ******s say Thurman is a hybe job? GTFO. That Collaza stoppage looked very su****ious though as if someone came to his corner, hey man you know you're not allowed to win, you got 20k$ extra and we stop it right here, looks like his hand got injured during camp as well. I thought he would have knocked out or totally dominated Collazo but he had a very hard time with him but thats no reason to call him a hype job. Thats just ******ed.Comment

The point is that his performance was flawed and very underwhelming, the body shot Khan landed vs Maidana would have made run time crumble.I think Thurman is good and solid, just not elite.

My take is that Collazo is a crafty veteran who went on the retreat early in the fight. It was partially caution and partially setting Thurman up. Keith is used to using his power to win fights and has a reputation as a power puncher. He got a little overconfident when Collazo started the fight backing up, but got thrown off a little when Luis suddenly started walking him down. Thurman is still young and learning and likely has learned something from this fight.Comment

Can't give the man credit for what he did take? The hate is strong with you, young Salim.
Something else I noticed about Thurman; he looked like he hasn't slept in days. Did you see the dark circles under his eyes?Comment

Lol na I'm just not sold on him yet. I gave him credit for beating Guerrero and Chaves. And his eyes always look like he hasn't slept in a month lol.Comment

I used to say the same thing about Broner when people would bring up the Ponce fight. Thurman probably has improved, but its not comparable to night and day between now and then. Thurman gets beat by Floyd easily.Why are you basing all of this on a fight from two years ago? Thurman has improved a lot since then and from the looks of his more recent fights, I think Thurman does have a chance against Mayweather.
Besides, it's not like he was in any kind of serious trouble against Chaves.Comment
