Meh like a smaller version of Canelo if that makes any sense. His punches don't look elite in how sharp they are when compared to the likes of Khan, Pacquiao, or Floyd but if he hits you clean you'd be on your @ss. Same with Canelo. He is a quick, heavy puncher but if you can find somewhere to operate outside of his strikes then he like Thurman will be in trouble. For instance tonight Thurman was all about hit and not get hit. Collazo made it his mission to get in and fight on the inside. Thurman should have taken the invitation and duked it out. Instead he got hit with one or two clean power shots and did everything in his power to dance his way out of an altercation. Thurman has to have his opponents on the end of his punches. His inside game is weak because the idea of fighting a fight on the inside is a risk that PBC fighters don't opt to take.
Rate Thurmans power

And just when you thought the conspiracy theories couldn't get any dumber, now I've learned that PBC fighters hold meetings where they discuss ways to avoid fighting on the inside.Meh like a smaller version of Canelo if that makes any sense.

I don't know where you learned that but considering you are such a PBC supporter it must just be illogical blather spewing out of your deluded fanboy mind. You mean to tell me that PBC fighters aren't taking advantage of having opponents cherry picked and then on most occasions, fighting a low risk fight taking every advantage, in and outside of the ring, possible?Comment

You said that dumb ****, not me
So this is exclusive to PBC fighters? You think a memo was sent out to all PBC fighters?Comment

A memo no. That sounds pretty absurd. But let's not forget who has the most to lose in all this. Al Haymon, the guy who just happens to have all his cards on a risky business move that hasn't been done before in boxing. Not to mention his most valuable fighter in Keith Thurman is under his management, under his banner of "PBC" too. Look at Top Rank or GoldenBoy and then look at PBC. One side of the coin you have guys leaving a part of themselves in the ring and fighting the fight and on the other you have "superstars" fighting guys who realistically should have no chance.
I mean
Garcia vs Lamont and Paulie....weak
Thurman vs Collazo and Guerrero...weak
Broner vs Porter(144 catch weight along with planned rehydration clause)....decent
Wilder vs a deteriorated Stiverne and bums....lets just hope he fights PovetkinComment

And what does that have to do with fighting on the inside? Does Porter not fight on the inside? FohA memo no. That sounds pretty absurd. But let's not forget who has the most to lose in all this.
