Keith Thurman vs. Jan Zaveck nearly done deal for March 9th.

Antwuan Maxx · 01-06-2013, 10:33 PM

Just saw on Twitter where Steve Kim retweed someone who claims to have heard Keith Thurman on a radio show recently, where Thurman stated he'd be fighting Jan Zaveck next.

If true, this could be a very good fight. Presumably, this would take place on the undercard of Cloud-Hopkins, which takes place March 9th at the Barclays Center.

Not bad would have preferred Abregu for Thurman instead.

Good fight, Zaveck is probably more skilled but i dont think his face will hold up
50/50 fight tho

IntentionalButt · 01-06-2013, 11:25 PM

Abregu needs to get in the mix too. Hope he has a fight lined up soon.

As for Thurman vs Zaveck it will be a good scrap if true.

Jan Zaveck is one of those guys who no one worth a damn in their rightful mind would go near, because he's so dangerous. While not "ranked" among Brook, Paulie, Alexander, Bradley, Mayweather, JMM, or Pacquiao; I'd pick him over the first three I listed for sure and he is a solid opponent for ANYONE, let alone a prospect/contender in Thurman.

Style wise, I see a great fight taking place, and while everything inside me says Zaveck, I think for some reason Thurman pulls this one off and I and others will have to give him mad credit for it.

Would be good to see Zaveck get another fight after he risked his belt in the US.

Thracian · 01-07-2013, 02:38 AM

good poll, imo

dwighttsharpe · 01-07-2013, 09:32 AM

Zavek to cry. Guaranteed!

(And not for winning.)

dwighttsharpe · 01-07-2013, 10:06 AM

Thurman in a "walk thru"!

IRONSENSE2002 · 01-07-2013, 11:03 AM

thurmans going to ignite 147 i'v been saying this for a year before all these wannabe Blacks and so called G's were riding his tail. maidana bitched out of an ass whopping.

KO KIDD · 01-07-2013, 11:15 AM

Zaveck fought Berto tough and deserved a US return fight on HBO. Looks like he will get his chance

I like both guys and I think Zaveck might win this

fatcity · 01-07-2013, 11:19 AM

Zaveck much more skilled.If he doesn't get caught he wins by decision.

dwighttsharpe · 01-07-2013, 11:24 AM

One Time gonna retire another "has been".

In this case, a "never was"!
