Thurman: Never Commentate Again...PLEASE!

[Baltimore]

I thought he was ok...he's a fighter, not a commentator...the Kreigal guy was annoying IMO.

I'm with you. I thought Thurman did pretty good for being a current fighter. When he was actually explaining the fight in front of him I thought he was great.

Kreigal was bad. Don't wanna disrespect veterans here but during the Vasquez fight he spent more time talking about PTSD than the actual fight. Seemed like he was trying to get fans to root for Vasquez more for that than for his actual fighting ability

Thurman is a full-time fighter and I doubt he takes commentary seriously. He probably didn't even get paid to sit at the booth.

He's still better than Sergio Mora and Daniel Jacobs. And pretty much everyone is better than Gus Johnson.

I thought he was okay, first time on the mic afaik.

He schools Garcia, 12-0. Hopefully they'll make that fight if KT can beat Porter. Angel might want another Salka though especially now Danny is drawing such a huge crowd.

I don't care if he's a full time fighter or a weed dealer, how the hell did he not know Garcia was a counterpuncher, that's literally his calling card. SMH

I'd be stunned if Garcia-Thurman is made after Thurman-Porter. Not because someone is dodging but because it wouldn't make much sense. I think they'll try and build it up to kick off 2017.

The modern boxing fan strikes again, happy with one decent fight for their fighter a year

Don't make me laugh. I've seen your boxing knowledge -- you've got quite some nerve directing that sort of comment toward me. Anyway, if every fighter had one big fight a year, we'd get nothing but big fights. Alarming lack of boxing knowledge to suggest this is some modern thing.

Oh ok ,so you think throughout the history of boxing, guys who aren't even THE MAN in their own division, fought decent opponents once a year?

Do enlighten me.

Imo, Thurman shined last night. Gus made him look superb. He was too busy gagging on Floyd's meat.

How so? The guy didn't know Garcia was a counter puncher and every time he got asked questions, he answered it with irrelevant crap. It was like watching one of his interviews, all noise, no substance.

Strawman argument. Bring it back to what you initially quoted and I'll be glad to enlighten you.

You're ******ed

[IMDAZED]

You're ******ed

That's more like it

[soul_survivor]

That's more like it

So, if you're NOT ******ed, and are so intelligent, why did you avoid the question?

It's ok, I know you bust a nut catching a glimpse of Floyd last night and you're still recovering.
