Comments Thread For: Keith Thurman: I'm Young, I Still Have A Lot To Offer The Sport

[4truth]

Keith is a good fighter. I hope he means what he says and that his body holds up.

[Mighty_Windir]

Of course he does.

Still in his prime, why would he hang them up after a split decision loss?

[OPS]

I would like to see you "cross the street," and fight Crawford "one time."

[WhatDisButtonDo]

Keith is going to wait for Spence to move up to try and campaign for the belts back

Main point of emphasis with Keith Thurman vs Crawford. I’ll break it down for you for layman boxing “fans”
Keith is weak to the body and his chin is very suspect. Watch the Lopez fight and when pacquaio landed some not so clean shots to his chin . He gets rocked. Crawford is a great technician and counter puncher . If he can land one clean like he did with benavidez he can finish Keith. But it took til 11th rd with benavidez. That’s a possibility of how Crawford fans beat Keith . But what’s more likely this fight will go the descision . If it’s descision fight Keith has a real chance to beat bud Crawford. Bud doesn’t have a high output til he gains control of the tempo and timing of his opponents. He is not Errol Spence . But with Keith , he can’t gain that tempo with Keith. If you learned anything from Keith vs pacquaio, even after his knockdowns and his face getting smashed in the 5th rd. Thurman came strong in the middle to late rds. Bud, even he has succeeded in the early rds, that’s not gonna stop Keith’s momentum and aggressiveness. Crawford will get punish from a heavy and legit welter weight. Keith is not benavidez or Jeff horn. Not even close. Bud is notgonna impose his will on Keith. Keith is gonna outwork bud and can put bud in the defensive mode, we have not seen so far. So when u hear bud is gonna crush Keith, they are just looking at their names and believing on hype and name alone. They have no clue how it will play out.

What funny is, Spence and crawford haven't proved anything in a WELTERWEIGHT division they are just a bunch of hype job who will keep protecting their 0 just like your idol.

Idol? It’s well established on these boards which one of us has a boxing idol. You are the king Pacquiao thread troll. You get butthurt by any comment even remotely unflattering about Manny.

You sound like an idiot talking out of both sides of your dumb ass mouth..if this fight ever happens which I highly doubt Thurman has the balls to compete for Crawford's belt, I'll bet you any amount of dollars, not only would Crawford win, he would win via TKO. Time to step up or STFU about what you think you know!

Crawford is gonna win because you said so? Don’t make me laugh. I gave you two scenarios of how Crawford would win and Keith and there’s strength and weaknesses.crawford should be favorite because Crawford is undefeated. Thurman got beat by a legend. But defeat is a defeat and It effects fighters psyche .Break the fight down. You don’t want to cuz you don’t know how to . Your argument is because this guy beat this guy and this guy beat this guy , therefore he’s gonna win!! Go sit down.

Please, just SOMEONE at 147 step out and meet Crawford. If Thurman can get a good payday, than make it happen. Crawford is wasting away here, and Thurman needs to prove he still likes boxing.
