    Not even slightly, Thurman is rangy as hell and is a damn good counter puncher. If Fundora gets super aggressive and tries to walk Keith down, he may very well walk right into an overhand right.

    Only if Fundora reverts back to old habits ( which is very possible ). He's using his advantages now and will be close to nigh on impossible to beat if he continues doing it. The Mendoza fight and the first couple of rounds of his first fight with Tim may have been the Firestarter

    Mendoza landed 1 good shot in that fight. Of course, it was the game changer, but up until that shot, Fundora won every minute of that fight. I think Fundora learned his lesson. I don't think he'll make the same mistake against Thurman.

    I expect Fundora to win and stop him but wouldnt be shocked if he lost. It's boxing.

    Seeing that bicep tear on Fundora kind of disappoints me because the reality could be that he's gonna be compromised in that arm to some level. Maybe not enough to change the outcome, but to sabotage his best work at best, or maybe actually change the outcome at worst. How will that affect his confidence with his jab and hook both on the outside and inside?

    Fundora has a bicep tear?

    I dont either but it's the one thing that makes the fight interesting is that I think Thurman is a level above fundora but handicapped by age, inactivity and size

    The only advantage I can see with the time off is less wear and tear

    I still pick fundora I just wouldn't be shocked if Thurman wins

    I think a Thurman win by stoppage is possible. Fundora will be a fish out of water
