Comments Thread For: Lopez: Thurman is '1' at 147? Then Give Me 2 Through 5!

These pbc bum champs shouldn't call themselves champ. Who have they fought .they think just holding the belts hostage makes them great it's Embarrassing.

Lopez just exposed a pbc bum champ. Anyone with (real) champ level stamina and speed would have murdered Thurman tonight and closed the show.

Josesito Lopez is pretty much the same level than Benavidez.

Thurman, Spence, Crawford have to realise they have to fight EACH OTHER, not some club level guys or much smaller guys. Well, Thurman at least beat Porter and Danny Garcia, other 2 have no excuses.

Thurman had a great comeback opponent that pushed him

Absolutely right

I can’t believe people are brushing off his two year hiatus
Not like he decided not to fight , he had two injuries , one major ( hand )

Lopez last night came to fight , he probably smelled blood from a rusty returning fighter , and still couldn’t get him out
Wtf more donpeople want , give the guy a few fights and then tell me where he’s at

Here we go with the bum talk. Stop disrespecting the sport. You should excuse yourself from further commenting...go watch UFC. Extreme spectator here......

The only ones disrespecting the sports are these bum pbc champs refusing to fight each other. They think slinging that leather around their shoulder is all it takes. It's the utmost disrespect to the sport.

The most stagnant generation in history brought to you by pbc.

It used to be a champion was about finding a way to win. He didn't have to destroy, or hurt his opponent, only show he was better and keep going for what lies ahead.

Now its a popularity contest about who can look the best... "Oh my goodness!" Thurman did not kayo this guy!!!! hes done!!! pac would destroy him!!! Because against the flat footed Broner pac looked so good!

The irony is that a poster like Larry, who probably watched the fight carefully and probably can see little nuances about how Thurman actually is coming along...while many posters just look at the fight, while grabbing the cheetos, beer and pizza, listen to the commentators who have to drum thing up... and repeat what they have heard. Bottom line: Thurman has been consistent and found a way to win with no caveats. The middle divisions in boxing have the most people coming in. Even when the division is not as quality as other times, there is a lot of competition for top billing.

Nice points but bad comparison, Broner is athletic has hell not flat like Lopez.......

Lopez is a very durable punching bag. but he deserves the payday so fck it.

[Jblo]

I hope spence gets this punching bag lopez to showcase how better his skills are than thurman.. Welterweights out there lookin like middlweights these days lopez was huge. Really gave thurman trouble. Could have caused more if he would have kept goin to the body. Thurman is weak to body punches this wont go well for him against spence an crawford there body snatchers. Thurman reminds me of kovalev, his body just doesnt hold up to punches.

Errol Spence or Terrance Crawford easily ends Thurman in that seventh round
