Bear in mind, due the cold war, some of these are mythical matchups, while others might happen one day. Try to predict what would happen in each: Porter vs Thurman Porter vs Bradley Bradley vs Garcia Thurman vs Bradley Thurman vs Garcia Porter vs Garcia Thurman vs Maidana
Thurman Bradley Bradley Bradley Even Garcia Maidana... Porter is a fucking garbage man...belt holder..hes a sparring partner....he ain't about this life. Thurman has a lot of bitch in him....still hasn't been exposed because he hasn't been in tough.... Bradley is still the class of the bunch... Garcia will beat Porter....draw with Thurman...just being generous cause Garcia is an okay fighter doesn't do anything GREAT...just a bunch of little things very well... Maidana will bring the bitch out of Thurman...
There is absolutely ZERO evidence to suggest Thurman has bitch in him. Zero! And he did face semi-adversity against Chaves. He kept his cool, adjusted, then eventually wacked Chaves outta there. I'm confident in saying that Thurman would kick Garcia's ass.
:bears: Btw, I've picked Garcia in all his matchups because everytime I pick against him he proves me wrong. And I don't think Thurman's no bitch.
Maybe so yeah. Seems decent to me though, far from the scrub people were making him out to be - even if in a powerful, afleet kind of way.
yes there is. Thurman definitely has bitch in him. It may be because his chin is Shit and he knows it but he's definitely a pushy footer.
Porter kos Malignaggi and absolutely wipes out alexander. How is he a garbage man? I think he beats thurman and bradley. And Garcia I don't know about. He lost his last fight so there's no reason to believe he couldn't lose to Porter too. Especially now at 147.
I had a feeling Double would consider Thurman a hippity hopper. He sure does score a lot of stoppages for a "pussy footer".
You can make a case for any fighter being overrated. Thurman is one of the best welterweights in the world, and can't be counted out against anybody at welter. That's not overrating him at all. It's simply stating a fact.
so it's not possible I simply rate him on the merits of his performances? Who the he'll has he beaten? He's a supposed belt holder and he hasn't fought anyone. His chin is crap. You'll see. Jeff Lacy had a lot of stoppages too.
