    The guy likes to call himself "one time", but as soon as his competition went up, his KO streak ended.

    Ain't anybody GGG.

    :patsch

    He beat the hell out of Guerrero like no ones done before

    Thurmans power is the best at Welter imo

    This is like saying Golovkin's power is overrated because it took him 11 rounds to stop Murray

    And who exactly has KO'd Guererro?

    The guys has barely ever been down as far as I know.

    Same goes for Bundu

    Thurman won't be a deadly KO artist at Word level but he is a hard hitter, everyone will be respectful of his power.

    Wait a minute...are you saying that better fighters are harder to knock out?

    My god, this changes everything! Get me the New York Times, get me the Pentagon, get me Science! I need to tell them the news!

    That's the case with almost every fighter...

    Matthysse didn't KO Garcia
    Kovalev didn't KO Hopkins
    Foreman didn't KO Ali
    The list goes on and on and on.

    Some fighters just have great chins, you can't KO everyone.

    I think Robert Guerrero would disagree

    When fighting good fighters at the upper echelons of the sport this is going to happen.

    Thurman has plenty of pop at any level.

    This thread is a joke.

    Everybody's power does, silly goose.

    Name me a welterweight that stops either Bundu or Guerrero.

    They are selling him ad a ko artist, I think they need to revise that. At this level he won't just run threw guys like he was before. If he doesn't get the ko people are expecting it almost looks like he didn't perform well or something.

    Well it happens to a lot of people. There are very few legit savage punchers out there. No shame it it he can still punch he just isn't a savage puncher but he has very good power.
