Big one time fan I think he is just versatile as hell when he was first on the scene he was knocking dudes out left and right as he progressed up the ladder he wisened up and started using his boxing iq more just like any other great fighter has shown.

so a guy who hasn't fought top 5 or a champ yet is the next best thing & a guy who is a division below WW is a legit threat to anyone in the division? SMDH..
Thurman has proven his worth & some.. Haters will hate, but he will do his thing & prove himself..
I'd favor Thurman over everyone at WW.. Crawford will be a good addition at WW but I see Thurman, Spence & Brook to be too strong for Crawford..

Originally posted by GhostofDempsey View PostSo 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.

Thurman lost to Porter if we're being fair and it's because he thought he could "out box" the busier, stronger fighter. Lets see what happens when theres a rematch.

I like him a lot but I think the Garcia fight exposed a lot of his flaws. He throws from too far out and his accuracy isn't great. I wish he would settle down because the power is legit but he's fallen in love with "boxing" ie lateral movement and potshotting.

If that's the case then little Gamboa exposed Crawford to have a weak chin?and exposed his flaw that he can't take a hit when are people are going to stop comparing boxers and give boxers their credit.
