    But what good will come out of that if his eye gets busted up right away just from getting hit with a jab from now on?

      Thurman is a little pissed off because Brook would be his best fight at 147.

          Yup Kell Brook is a star with a ton of fans and respect from the boxing world now, $5-6 Million richer and Keith Thurman got troubled and knocked around the ring by Shawn Porter for much less money and just escaped with a lucky decision. Btw who is Thurman fighting next? Or is he taking a year off again?

            How times change, so now you're counting how much fighters make? As a boxing 'fan', why do you care about who's got more money? I remember when Golovtards weren't 'businessmen'.

            And lol @ escaped with a lucky decision. The majority of people scored the fight for Thurman.

                  When Marlon Starling jumped up two weights to fight then superstar Michael Nunn neither he or Nunn were criticized.And it was a pretty good fight.Now it's talked about with derision when you make a grab at greatness.
