Thurman is a verifiable BEAST! He's the most dangerous WW out there...

If this had been prior to Brook vs. Jones, I'd agree that picking Thurman via KO with confidence was just more of his unjustifiable hype.

In light of that performance, however...

What made you change your mind on One Time, or do you just not think much of Brook?

Bingo. I mean, I think highly of him as a boxing talent - but after seeing the way he deals with pressure & power against B-level (and that's maybe generous, probably more like C+) Carson Jones there is little doubt in my mind he'd get flattened by a Thurman...let alone someone world class with any pop and grit.

Agreed. Perhaps Brook learned from that and can take it to the next level. I'm thinking Alexander may be his one and only big chance over here. We'll see.

thurman might have a bit too much power, but who would you favour between brook and maidana at 147?

I want to see Brook in with someone else who will pressure him, he didn't seem himself that night but there is nothing to compare it to in order gauge if it was an off night or if that is his limit because it was against arguably the best fighter he has faced.

Thurman has only beaten one decent fighter and is wasn't at welterweight.

i'm not surprised by all the idiots on here, but i am surprised at IB.

Thurman!? Keith thurman!? get the fuck out of here! kell would dominate and end it around the mid to late point.

Thurman isn't going places other than the fucking canvas. the guy WILL be shown up by a decent fighter not too far from now.

fucking Keith thurman. everybody is on some sort of glue or something.

Hey moron, We're talking about Keith fucking thurman fighting Kell
fucking brook. The same brook who's a british clubfighter who struggled
in his win with american clubfighter carson jones. Keef one time KO'd
former world title holder carlos quintana faster than Cotto did, so i'd
say that trumps anything your limey boyfriend did.
Class is over.
