    Thurman's Well Spoken for a Fighter, but he Woke Up a Verbal GIANT when he Started Fucking w/Malignaggi...Paulie Said it Best, "It's PRIZE Fighting"...Thurman has Yet to HEADLINE a Single HBO Telecast, so Financially Speaking, Broner's the BETTER Choice...

    Paulie's on the Last Legs of his Career & Rightfully, he's Wanting the MOST Money Possible...

    Saw this earlier. Was cracking up :lol: You won't win a verbal match with Paulie...even Broner won't.

    Paulie's a Verbal BEAST....& he's Got just Enough URBAN SWAG to Beat Broner @ his OWN Game...

    LMAO @ Thurman saying "I woulda taken Cotto out."

    Prime Miggy would kick the living shit outta Thurman.

    Even now, Cotto would have to be favored.

    Doesn't matter if he beats Broner in the verbal talk.

    In the ring Adrien's gonna fuck him up.

    I don't think Paulie beats Broner nor Thurman, but of the two, he without QUESTION has a better chance of beating Thurman. Keith doesn't have the talent and skills that Broner has.

    The Thing is, Paulie's Gonna OUT TALK Broner Sooooo BADLY, he'll Likely Embarrass & Piss him Off....On Fightnight, Broner will Be in the Mood to HURT Paulie, as Opposed to Simply Winning a Boxing Match...

    Today's Cotto has lost to Floyd, and Trout.

    Would you pick Thurman over Floyd or Trout? Cause I sure as fuck wouldn't.

    Agreed, prime Cotto would beat him up no problem.

    I don't like Thurman, seems annoying,I don't think he's that good either.

    I kinda get the feeling Thurman's power is overrated.

    He does have pop in his left hook. Power wise, it's not like anybody ever compared his power to Tito or somebody like that.

    My opinion of him now is the same as pre-Sat.

    He's a player at 147, although him beating Floyd would be outta the question. Timmy probably has too many skills for him as well.

    At 154, he'd get stopped by Canelo, and thrashed by Trout, Lara, Cotto.

    no doubt... that stiff he was fighting on Saturday knew enough to throw it but was too slow and unskilled to get it there in time

    He backs up from every exchange with his his left low, head turned somewhat to the side and his chin exposed... that opponent was JUST missing him with the shot and Thurman never made any adjustment

    Anyone who can successfully push this guy back and has decent timing on the right hand can beat him

    Ever since the Cotto fight I've been a fan of Paulie. He's a tough boxer and deserves a little more respect that he gets.

    He's so brash but it comes across without malice..you gotta like him

    No power ='s easy mark at 147.

    Paulie can't beat either guy. The matchup will be Broner vs. Thurman but I'd like to see Broner go down to 140 and clean house there. At some point Khan and Rios will both jump to 147.

    God, I wish Paulie had some pop, so he can shut this guy up, just straight ignorance.
    I like Paulie, he knows the game about as much as anyone ever could, a great announcer and a masterful boxer, and tough as nails, just no pop, none...its what kills him...I would wish he would school Thurman though.

    Im not calling him great or anything, but he definately has skills and talent, I guess a bit of a stretch but you get what I'm saying anyway.

    I don't think his skills are all that impressive... he dances around well and has enough handspeed to shoeshine scrubby fighters... master boxers don't get found ad infinitum by the Ricky Hattons of the world

    He's a good boxer, but damn far from 'masterful'.

    If you meant to say he has pretty good skills, then just say that. There's no need to exaggerate his abilities.
