    Thurman vs Brook would be interesting.

      F#ck man not a good look for Keith. If he fought Spence next I think he's getting KO'd. I'm not real confident he gets by Porter. And sh^t man I think I'm giving Manny a great chance at beating him too. Keith needs to fight Broner next.

        If I were Paq I would jump all over a fight with Thurman immediately and do whatever it takes to make that fight .

          Yes he did look weak and vulnerable
          But I believe the cause of that is two years off
          General ring rust , his timing was off but I attest he has a fughin chin
          Plus he had a man who’s been rejuvenated , last three wins with new coach and good to go on this occasion
          All and all he got some hard work in and I can see him only progressing

          But I wouldn’t throw him to the wolves just yet
          Thinking he needs two more fights this year ( please ) before being totally ready
          And let’s hope the hand doesn’t go to chit

            I think only a very small portion was ring rust. He virtually fought the same way he fought against Garcia. And Lopez was more aggressive than Garcia.

              If Lopez had him shaken up and buzzed, no reason not to think Spence will not finish him in that situation. Lopez got tired eventually but Spence can keep the pressure up for much longer period or until he eventually breaks.

                What does one have to do with the other?

                  Two years are long man
                  He looked rusty in my eyes , missed a bunch because of his timing
                  And Lopez came to fight
                  Also I believe Thurman’s stamina didn’t hold up , or he would of knocked him out the last three rounds
                  Can only go up
                  Personally , I would get a new trainer , never liked Birmingham

                    Actually I believe Brook from last 2 fights stops Thurman. But Brook fights at 154 now.

                      Spence stops Thurman.
                      All you're saying to me is that Keith has faced and knows how to handle adversity.

                      Can't say the same about Spence. He's only faced a pre-battered Brook. Hasn't taken any actual challenges.
