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.
Keith avoids the inside because he's not very good at that range.
See the Guerrero fight in a championship round when Robert pushed him to the ropes.
His power is overhyped by himself, although I do think if he learned to sit on his punches more and throw accurately he can certain do much more damage.
This is coming from a Thurman hater, he just doesnt know properly how to throw his punch.
