He did to me.
Thurman's body was in good shape but Diaz looked to be carrying more.

Thurman comes across as a nice guy but there's something a little 'off' with him and I cant quite put my finger on it.

Diaz corner wanted the fight stopped.

Thurman piling on the drama in the post fight interview.

Thurman on a Shaun Porter fight ... If they're ready I'm ready.

Thurman is a stud.

Unfortunately the way Thurman got that W over Diaz it doesn't really mean anything, but I guess Diaz wanted to preserve his career and not get pounded into sh*t in there.

Good win for Thurman I suppose.

Same, he reminds me of Joakim Noah

I don't see where he's done or said anything to make something seem "off" about him.

It's just his mannerisms, etc, when he speaks. Like I said, it's hard to pinpoint it exactly.

He sounds like a fight salesman for some reason. But he stands out because he's doesn't have a boring personality nor does he need to be a total jerkoff to do it. He is like a WWE character. It should work well for him in the long run as a self promoter. I like his attitude. We need more like him.

His lisp?

You don't see many people with speech impediments speak so confidently.

It could be that. Wasnt mocking him. I like him, seems a nice guy.
