    He can take it, if not he would have lost. Collazo isn't that bad, he went 12 with Mosley, Hatton, Berto and Khan. Thurman has potential but he still has some learning to do.
    They should step up the opposition, Maidana, Khan, Porter, Garcia and Brook would be good measuring fights, he would probably be the dog against them, but he could win. We'll never know if he keeps fighting lesser opposition.

      Thurman kept his composure and work his way back into the fight. Better than others that simply just fold and go away

          LMAO!

          The hard hitting featherweight Guerrero.

          Why Thurman so scared of Spence?

            Thurman gets hit hard or pressured, he gets on his bike, similar to Khan

Great for furture promotions. De la Hoya should be shot dead.
              I always thought this as well

                goddamn yanks

                we will wait and see, i have a feeling he will fold when he's in with good opposition, i will be the first to give him props if he proves my feeling wrong though.

                The thing is, haymon will feed him bum's and avoid any kind of test for as long as possible.
                There it is.

                Nuff' said.

                Here tell it to your binky.

                  He is not very rugged and can be hurt to the chin or the body. He is a good puncher but other welterweights hit as hard or harder than he does. He hit Collazo flush with big punches many times and Collazo was still standing. He is a hit and run fighter and not an all out attacker like Maidana, Matthysse or Ruslan. I think he is good but not the best. I think Mayweather, Pacquiao and Mayweather can beat him. I'd make him an even match for Porter, Khan or Bradley.

                    Sorry about having Mayweather beat him twice in the same sentence. I meant to say Mayweather, Pacquiao and Brook would beat him.

                      if micky ward lands a perfect left hook to the body it clearly is having more effect than say if sergio mora lands it...


                      That proves my point. Micky Ward is a d class fighter. Class means nothing.

                      Prescott is a lesser fighter than maidana.

                      Yet khan took maidana punches, but couldn't take Prescott punches.

                      Class means nothing. A perfect shot is a perfect shot.
