It's probably not even top 10 in the USA as well.. Unless it's big promotion.

Thurman knocked him out in 3 rounds

As expected here in Australia.
Jarvis is a pretender who prefers bodybuilding to boxing and tonight a real fighter set him straight

Not surprising. Miles in talent as was known prior to start of bout. Nice performance by Keith. Hopefully we see him return to Australia later on 2025.

If Tszyu survives Spencer we should see Keith back at the end of the year against Tim.
I just hope it’s not another injury for Keith. Seems like he is a leap year fighter.
Unfortunately for Jarvis, he was here tonight.

first KO in 10 years.

he's probably only fought 5 times ahhaa

Some finish that was to be fair

I'm a tubby 56 year old bloke & I have quicker hands than Jarvis.

Would be nice if Thurman fought another couple of times this year. I was a huge fan of his when he was coming up & used to speak to his old trainer when I worked in St Pete. He owns a vegan soul food restaurant which Thurman fronted the money for. Top Bloke.

Or "once upon a time" to change things up.

While Brock clearly isn't world class, Thurman looked fantastic when he set about finishing off Brock

Brock had way too much confidence in himself and paid the price....enjoyed dishing it out, but not so good at taking it.

Let's hope it isn't another 1,000 days before see Keith in the ring again

Good comeback performance for Keith. Sets up the Tim Tszyu fight well. I still favor Tim, but this probably makes it an easier sell for people.

I’ll go with the real fighter here, Thurman by KO inside 5 rounds

It's all so obvious now, but there were doubters.

I think a round of applause is due -

A long, long way behind rugby, league, and cricket, even basketball sadly is more popular.
Still, I quite like the atmosphere at the Auckland Boxing Club. It doesn't bother me there aren't stadium fights here. If I was in England, I'd probably gravitate towards Copper Box/ York Hall type fight cards anyway.

The combination for the first knockdown was top drawer from Thurman, no way Jarvis should've been allowed to carry on, no surprise he got iced from first shot Thurman threw

Keith doing it in style, hope he gets to fight again this year and try some 154 big dog.
