Comments Thread For: Keith Thurman Explains Why He's Not Afraid To Let That '0' Go

I can't wait until these some of these big egos take a loss. It's so annoying listening to them talk like "Ain't nobody beat me!"
Both Thurman and Garcia need to take a loss. I'd say GGG too, but he's not as arrogant. Ward, but he's kind of mellow also.
If they weren't so arrogant about it, it probably wouldn't be so annoying.

I didn't see much arrogance. You have to have great self belief to become even a titlist. Calling himself a great fighter is just self belief. He hasn't said he is the best. The best ever. (not that he could anyway) but his self belief is in line with his accomplishments at this point.

The O is only important on the check a fighter receives- many

Lots of O's a boxers check is all that matters. Titles mean little anymore and perfect records mean little. It's the millions in the bank that is important-only money matters in life and good health.

This fight has had no promotions, it deserves recognition.

Keith is level headed and it shows.. I've got Keith to win by UD and make Danny look silly at times in the process..

How could you read this article then turn around and say Keith has too much ego??

This^^^^^^

Expect to see plenty of "overrated" or "over-hyped" threads this weekend for the losing fighter

Great point. Respect to both fighters. They've definitely earned it.

So what exactly does it mean when you say you're not afraid to let the zero go?

Yea I'm surprised at the lack of build up. A "Road to" would've been great.. But at least some more commercials.

I like Thurman's refreshing attitude. When he is quoted, it is obvious is super intelligent.
