        It still wouldn't be good enough. They would find the 2 seconds in the fight that Thurman took a breather and make a thread about his lack of stamina.

          People on here were saying that Thurman is the 3rd best welter on the planet and would stop Pacquiao, stop being butthurt.

          I'm from "across the pond" and I like Danny Garcia, Mikey (though he's an idiot for leaving Arum), Hopkins, Donaire, Bradley (in fact, Bradley has becomeo ne of my faves in recent years).

          So try again butthurt fan.

          STFU, yall were saying he would stop Pacman, he would destroy Khan, brook and anyone not named Mayweather. Yall were saying he would be the perfect opponent for Mayweather.

          Thurman was hurt, retreating and disorientated and barely throwing punches by the end of the fight...he's lucky Collazo is a quitting bum. Khan handled Collazo with dam nease. Get off Thurmans nut.

          POS.

          I knew this would happen which is why I made this thread, all of you getting hurt like I'm ****ing your mothers.

          Like I always says: Be a fight fan, not a fighter fan.

          Maybe you'll be able to handle it better next time.

            I dont think Id put any money on Khan lasting 12 with Thurman. Khan has specifically avoided big punchers for the last 5 years. In the last 5 years, he has fought ONE puncher and that coincides with his KO loss.

              .
              You made this thread as some sort of display about your elite boxing knowledge, made up some hyperbolic claim of peoples opinions on here of Thurman, and now you want a fucking cookie.


              Here you go.

                  Soul, I know I'm coming off as an asshole.

                  I apologize.

                  What I'm trying to say is, are there really that large of degrees separation between the second tier guys?

                  By second tier I mean, Bradley, Khan, Brook, and Thurman?

                  It seems to me that those guys are looking for the golden ticket bout with Mayweather, or even Pac, which is very understandable.

                    You have a Keith Thurman avatar, and made a lengthily post about how Thurman is only 'good'. Keith Thurman has made it, he has devoted critics. When you have devout critics, you made it.

                      Damn it. If only there was that perfect fighter that never losses a fight or round, can come out of a fight unscathed and never have a bad night due to whatever styles they may encounter.

                      I'll keep looking out and bashing anyone that gets a punch landed on them cleanly, looks a little tired because, you know, they're boxing for 3 minutes a round and have guys trying to punch and defeat them.
