Aggressive, effective fighters like Pac and Spence can break a guy like that. I'm not even a big Spence fan but at least the kid has confidence. Big confidence.
    You weren't tuned in between rounds? It's Birmingham's doing. Idc though cause even when he 'ran' he did the better work and landed the better shots.

      Thurman is slick and uses his legs well, and has very high ring IQ (this I admit I now acknowledge after this fight) and is responsible with his hands when he needs to be. People tend to focus on offense and hard hitting stoppage inducing type shots so they disregard defense, and Thurman goes for the KO but he can take those risks because he has a good chin and he is in shape, and well conditioned. He's not a flawless fighter but he's well rounded, and dangerous.

      I think if he doesn't let off the gas he stops Danny in the mid rounds.

        Spence is gonna finish him anyway. His power is overrated that's why he cannot Ko Bundu.

            It was a bit anti-climactic to be honest, seemed like the guys only wanted to take turns being aggressive.

            That sometimes happens when a fight is so big and the guys have a lot to lose.

            Thought Thurman let the fight get closer then it should have been, Garcia was hurt early and was reluctant to trade until the last few rounds.

              You mean "run" dude. Run. That's what they see. Running.

              They want rock-em-sock-em boxing all the time. Dudes criticizing Thurman for moving all of 3 rounds of a 12 round fight and totally ignoring the fact he outboxed Garcia over 8 of them. LOL

                Bradley is #2 behind Brook. Then comes Thurman. Pac isn't in the picture.

                  Thurman has a habit of swinging wide. Pac would counter that easily with his footwork. Thurman's power would be his shot. But if Pac can take his shots and can minimize the amount he gets hit with... he would beat Thurman IMO.

                    Thurman reminds me of the man in Doc's avi/sig. And no, Im not saying he's as good as Sweet Pea. -_-"
