    He'd fight Ray Robinson if they let him, but he's not smart enough to look up where Ray is buried.

    Since the Pac fight, it has been obvious Thurman is simply looking to cash out and not rebuild his career. Really disappointing

    I think he turned into a pussy around the time he got married. The girl is fine, he's is using up all his testosterone in the bedroom. The Pac fight did put a little perspective on him when you consider Pac was pretty much washed. Thurman will come for a payday vs Tank and no more. It will be him circling the ring all night hoping to go the distance.

    Thurman has pop too. And can deliver it well on the counter. He tamed Danny Garcia with one shot. And tank's defense is underrated but it's still not great. But does this fight depend on thurman beating barrios?

    1. The Thurman who beat Garcia is looonnnnnnggggg gone. That fight was almost 7 years ago. Keith is a shell of that fighter now.

    2. Thurman already beat Barrios...

    Oh yeah. :D Mixed it up with the Ugas fight. Still, I doubt Thurman has lost his pop.

    Thurman was always a solid puncher rather than a genuinely big puncher imo. Even in his physical prime.

    It doesn’t seem like this one is actually happening either. I think Keith’s trainer denied it as did Espinoza.
