    Keith "One time I was a boxer" Thurman vs Marrio Barrios.

    Barrios is coming off his first loss. Keith has been out of the game coming on three years, how does this play out?

    Barrios gets stop. Barrios only advantage at 140 was size. He has average speed, power, and average ring IQ. Even a ring rust Thurman should be able to stop Barrios.

    Levels, levels, levels. Even inactive Thurman is way too much for Barrios.

    Odd fight for sure. Keith obviously has been active since Manny and I get the feeling ring rust will be a major factor. I see Barrios winning a decision

    Barios has never impressed me, even when he was doing well against Tank, as that was due to size disparity rather than anything else. Unless Thurman is SHOT shot he should be able to handle Barios.

    Thurman he should win as long as he isn't shot.

    I believe the plan is to feed
    “One time” to Tank
    By generating interest with a common opponent.

    this way Tank can swerve the stiff comp at light weight & have another “in house” PPV
    Spectacle With controlled risks.

    Tank couldn't even hurt a Mexican midget smaller than him. But Cruz hurt him several times and had him clinching and spoiling.

    Thurman walks Tank down and stops him early.

    On paper Keithy should win but I think he's washed at this point. Multiple injuries, long bouts of inactivity, coming off a loss and nearly getting knocked out in his fight prior to Manny. He's not going to be the Keithy of old and it's hard to know how much he has left until we see him again.
