Thurman vs Canelo

[O Prophet]

Thurman's style IMO would be a problem for Canelo because Thurman has great movement like Khan but much higher ring IQ, he didn't make the same mistake Khan made against Garcia. He would be even more cautious with Canelo.

Thurman called out Canelo a while back and team Canelo said that they would rather fight Porter than Thurman. Reason was probably Thurman can move around the ring very well while Porter comes to you.

I predict Thurman would outbox the slow footed Canelo but people would cry "Run Time".

Thurman is soft to the body was hurt bad by a body shot by Collazo and a body shot by Porter. Canelo is the best body puncher in the game hitting harder then both those guys. He would cut thurman in half to the body. Thurman doesn't move as well as Khan and Canelo was able to time and slow him down. And Khan while having a weak chin takes a body shot better then Thurman does and you saw the effect of those body shots on Khan by round 5 he was moving really bad. Thurman poses no threat to Canelo, he ain't even getting passed Spence who will also punish Thurman to the body if he runs.

Absolutely ******. That's all. Thurman nor Garcia are on the same level as Canelo. Size alone blows them both out of the water.

You are a fool and Canelo is a fat bum who can't cut off a ring, Thurman will box circles around him.

Bro you are jumping the gun Canelo sparks Thurman Kirkland fashion. He's an expert at fighting welterweights.

This! If thurman moved up to 154 and fought Cotto today (even with his age and long layoff) I would bet money on Cotto. Same with Lara, Boo Boo, Charlo ect Thurman ain't beating any of these guys and he won't be the man left standing at 147. He barely beat Porter for phuk sake. Many feel like Porter won that fight. And Porter isn't as good as any of these guys either.

An he wouldn't have to with Thurman. Thurman would catch every body shot Canelo threw and more. Thurman does not turn fighters, and is very wild at times. That first round against Garcia was pretty much disgraceful. Canelo would torch him with body shots and walk him down. Danny was starting to walk him down until Thruman decided to dance around for 3 rounds.

Thruman would be KOed just as KHAN was, there is a reason Canelo is moving up in wieght the guy is pretty damn big, and just entering his prime.

Thurman is 10x better than a shot Kirkland. Canelo and Oscar got yall fooled.

Khan and Cotto couldn't do that so what makes you think Thurman will? He can't take the body shots Khan took and Cotto is a far better fighter in every way and proven at 154. Thurman is phuking tiny compared to Canelo. He ain't lasting 6 rounds. But this is a mute point because he ain't getting passed Spence.

Yes but 10x still very short.
