  • How many 28-year-olds have a better resume than Keith Thurman?

    I've been seeing a few videos on youtube discussing how underrated Thurman is and why he doesn't get much love. So it got me thinking, how many active fighters 28 or under, have a better resume than Thurman? The only fighter I can really make a case for is Canelo.

    Porter B+ (A-)
    Garcia B+ (A-)
    Chaves B (B+)
    Collazo B
    Guerrero B
    Bundu C+
    Karass C+
    Diaz C+
    Quintana C+

    A solid resume like that along with being the unified champ and #1 guy in the most loaded and marketable division in boxing, should be enough for him to get more recognition.

      Yeah on paper. but honestly if you break it down it isnt very impressive.

      IMO he has 1 good win = Garcia, and lets be honest Garcia is not a legit WW and has been beaten by journeyman Herrera already.

      He lost to porter imo, a draw at the very least.

      Guys like soto karrass, bundu, chavez and guerrero are all solid C level meh win's.

        He gets the highest ratings in American boxing so I don't know if I'd say he's under-appreciated. His resume definitely looks pretty strong now and I think he's great for boxing

          B+, Porter is very underrated, his only two losses are against 2 of the top 3 guys at 147, in competitive fights. His resume is pretty close to Thurman's but he falls a bit short.

                I put him down as B+, but if he gets a few more signature wins, he will be borderline A-, when only a handful of fighters can **** with you in the most stacked division in the sport, it means you're not far off the best.

                Porter is better than your guy Garcia btw, I see Uncle Al making that fight happen soon

                  Garcia would **** porter up....he eats aggressive fighters like porter for breakfast. Garcia also has a better resume. Porter won't beat any top 5 ww either so his signature win will always be devon alexander.

                    He has a very good resume. Not everyone is going to be Sugar Ray Leonard, Thurman has a nice career going and he's got some bigger fights in the horizon. Personally, I like him, but he doesn't pass the eye test for me as being great yet.
