    Thurman need to make a decision about his career.

    I hope Keith Thurman recover his hand 100%, but If that hand is going to be chronic injury every time he fight, spar, hitting the heavy bag, then is better he retire. I don't want his hand to suffer more damage. Also his heart is in question.

      That's too bad, injuries really following him around. His mind is F8cked too - watching the cameras following him around from the hotel to the arena during the pre-fight he just didn't look like a hungry fighter.

      I did gain some respect for him in how he adjusted his style in the mid rounds against Pac - when I saw that, I was suddenly intrigued in what he can do forward with that against a Spence or TC. Unfortunately, he's not durable enough to really be able to apply pressure like that for long...southpaws are always going to have the angle to his liver

        Am not sure why you guys think Crawford beats Thurman..if Thurman comes in motivated and in great shape, I 'll actually favor him over Crawford. Crawford hasn't really been tested. Name me one elite puncher Crawford has faced and we all know Keith can box and can also crack and Crawford chin is hella suspect. It is no whitewash like most of you think, 50-50 fight at worst. Crawford is actually the better match up for Thurman. Spence maybe all wrong for him as I can see a similar fight like Brook where Thurman rattles him early and Spence come on strong late. But with Crawford, they are both there to tussle till the end
        When you have to say "If Thurman..." you're already backpedaling, just like Thurman!

          Keith has fallen off lately, but if he comes back all 3 of them are on the same level.

          Keith and Spence have been proven at welterweight now. Terence still has a lot to prove but he has accolades from the lower weight classes.

          I don't think Spence or Crawford have faced a puncher like Keith though.

            Thurman aint consistent and losing to Manny showed that. He was letting Manny take off rounds then steal them back with Flurries.

            That's not gonna fly with Crawford/Spence and Porter who i think would win in a rematch. ( if he isnt 100%

            But thats kinda the point.... Does 100% even exist anymore with tbis guy?
            That's the only question that needs to be answered. Is there a 100% Keith Thurman anymore.

            He's still young so I'll hold my breath waiting a few years longer. But you're right, he might be done. Time will tell.
