I swear Keith is the most well rounded boxer right now at this moment. Power, great chin, great defense, great offense, charisma, and great gauge

of distance! Thurman is da best! Thurman is da best in the business! :bag: :box: :bag: :box:

Going a bit far saying he's the best in the business. I am a fan though :TU: In and out the ring.

Now I see and understand why Floyd ducked him, Thurman would edge Floyd Mayweather he knows how to steal rounds. He has that range of

distance down to a tee! Hey he''ll edge out Errol Spence as well with his boxing brain!

Lol.

Floyd at 40 still beats Keith currently. As does Manny.

Keith is way overrated and beating Garcia who really should have had 3 losses on his record already, hasn't changed my opinion on that.

I also like Thurman. A match up between him and Kell Brook is something I’d really look forward to....are Brook and this American I keep hearing about, Spence, down to fight soon? Is Brook anywhere near to being able to undergo a camp after his broken eye-socket?

About what? Whether I think Brook Thurman would be a great fight? Absolutely serious.

I think he was just so surprised that you are that out of touch with what has been going on with regards to the welterweight scene. Brook has agreed to fight Spence after a couple of extensions to sign for his mandatory or vacate in order to allow him to negotiate with Khan. (even though they said it was for time for his eye to heal) Tough fight between Spence and Brook. I predict we will be wanting Spence vs Thurman afterwards, and Thurman will put that off as long as possible.

I will be surprised if Thurman consciously avoids the winner of Brook v Spence, unless Brook wins by way of robbery, in which case Sometimes would likely demand fighting in the USA. Team Thurman took a pass on Spence earlier because it was not ripe for either of them business or legacy-wise.

Excellent move.

Perfectly fair comment. I don’t pretend to know what either man had for his breakfast.
The Brook Gennady fight seems very recent - although it was probably what, 4 months ago...maybe 3?
You Americans seem really into Errol Spence....to be dismissive of a guy like Brook.... Yes his career has been on a bit of a slow burner, but generally he passes the test. Fantastic confidence to rip it off Porter like that on his own patch. Kell Brook would not fear anyone - Errol Spence included I bet.

Who is being dismissive of Brook? I actually favor him slightly in this bout. Anyhow, Americans will tend to lean towards their own fighter in many cases.
