I love Thurman but does anyone else think...

[AliBombaye]

that Thurman believes he's actually a better boxer than he actually is?

I think Thurman when in the ring boxing believes in his mind he's Sugay Ray Leonard or something when in reality his boxing skills aren't elite what so ever, more closer to above average. He gets hit way too much and always ends up in a dog fight for someone with supposed elite boxing skills and ring IQ.

When Thurman faces a high level boxer with a good chin we'll see how limited of a boxer he actually is.

I got Spence as leading the 147 pack and Crawford being his ultimate test when he moves up.

Peace

I think he is weak to the body

Is he supposed to have the mentality of young newcomer who can't hang with the big boys in that ring? You want him to portray himself like he's nothing special, when he's an unified undefeated 2 time champion at welterweight?

Nothing but hate for One Time but no problem, keep lining them up, he'll keep beating you favorite boxers

[GhostofDempsey]

So far he's lived up to his confidence. He beat two top 5, tough opponents back to back. Not everyone is going to be the next Ray Leonard. But I'm more than happy to watch the next Donald Curry, Ike Quartey or Vernon Forrest.

Hopefully we skip the Porter rematch...

Well said.

Thurman doesn't get any love on here or in the boxing community in general, barring a few long time fans. There isn't an active fighter 28 or under, with a better resume than One Time, except maybe Canelo. He's a unified champ in the best division in boxing and still overlooked.

[Canelo and GGG]

He belive in himself and he proved he can box , i dont see a problem its just his style

[NYG]

I'm a huge fan of Thurman, not sure what else you want from him. Guy will fight anybody and he actually fights, he can win in lots of different ways

[WesternChamp]

isnt that suppose to be a good thing???

Why do you have different standards? the ATG fighters you compare him to had losses... yet him having "close" fights is worse than that?

The man is good, no doubt about that.
