    Having a lay off is no excuse to getting your face battered by a bum

    Regardless of time off, lopez is a journeyman and he almost had keith stopped. He took a beating in that fight. Bad cherry pick. Keith has just been exposed slowly. His ring iq is limited. Guy circles around the ring and then looks for quick combos. That's all he does all fight. He can't hold his own in the center of the ring. He's getting stopped by crawford and spence.

    High level guys like chino and canelo felt Lopez power but got him out early even washed fighters like Berto got Lopez out..... Goes to show Thurman current level...

      Lopez was beating Maidana and Berto convincingly just a few years ago before being stopped.


      To simply put; he's no bum.

          He put serious hands on canelo also... They stopped the one dimensional fighter early though... Keith supposed to be the best welter surviving Vs a journeyman

            One time is a problem

            Everyone keep talking about this man like hes nothing! Hes been off for 2 years almost. He fought well and showed his boxing skills and heart. Conditioning will be a factor because of the layoff. Being in shape and being in boxing shape are to different things. Give me a marathon runner or a top swimmer and through him into the ring he would get tired in the first round. Give Thurman a few more fights I expected him to get rocked or buzzed because of inactivity. That brain of his is vulnerable not use to being hit with 8oz gloves. He is smart athletic and can punch. He is the best welterweight in the world.

                And Lopez has been off since April 2018 so it's not like he's been extremely active. He's fought once a year since 2015. Thurman looked like ****

                  be better to judge Thurman after another fight or 2 and if he still looks like garbage then maybe he is past his peak

                    Agree.

                    compare that with the performance of a true elite like Vitali Klitschko.

                    Vitali beat the **** outta Sam Peter, the wbc champion in his comeback fight after a 4 YEAR layoff

                    there are levels to this ****. Thurman is done and will get destroyed by Spence and Crawford
