Comments Thread For: Teddy Atlas: Only Guy I See Beating Spence at 147 is Thurman

What about Pacquiao? Spence being a south paw works very well into Pacs favor

How many southpaw champions has Pacquiao faced?

How many southpaw champions has Pacquiao faced? FYI, Floyd beat Judah, Ortiz, Guererro, and Pacquiao, just to name a few.

147 isn't brimming, so it's not much of a bold statement.
Since Spence beat Brook, Thurman is the next logical challenge.

I stopped taking Atlas seriously since he picked everyone, including Judah to beat Mayweather...

So true...when he called Keith the best athlete in the sport, I was like wtf lol Dude isn't even cut. Very soft to the gut. He's a stronger version of the young Sharmba Mitchell imo

Atlas be trolling too much

[Edward90]

Relax, everybody. He said that he COULD see Thurman beating Spence, not that he favors him to beat Spence. Even so, if Atlas predicts a winner, the other guy is more likely to win. I'm surprised by how often his predictions are wrong. I stopped paying attention to that a while ago... With that being said, he is right that Thurman is very cerebral in the ring. I don't think he lasts any longer than Brook did, but Thurman is no bum or pushover. He just isn't ecstatic about having to fight Spence.

Atlas means Thurman can box move all around the ring jab and he can punch throw bombs when he needs to porter is just straight ahead

[bronx7]

Thurman outboxed Garcia porter and outpunched them when needed he is athletic versatile most one dimensional

[ShowStopper21]

I disagree with Atlas on this one. Come to think of it, I pretty much never agree with Atlas as others have already stated. My $.02 is that Spence beats Thurman and does it comfortably. I'm not saying Thurman is a bum or anything like that but Spence is a better fighter...

Atlas: "Only Guy I See Beating Spence at 147 is Thurman"...

... me too... but I strongly doubt myself...

If you want to win money, always bet the opposite of this fool Atlas.
If Colozo had Thurman in trouble, Spence will put on the serious beat down. Think about it?
