    Chaves seem to give Keith a few problems, Floyd would easily outbox him, Keith would need to become more of a pressure fighter to beat him, Keith is far more intelligent than Maidana so he can adjust. Keith today loses, make a few changes to his style Keith wins by KO.

    anyone who uses the tactics of getting Thurman on the front foot and not allowing him to use the ring on the back foot will most likely have an easy time with Keith. Mayweather won't dance to his tune for one second. Keith will be the one doing all the dancing.

    let Thurman get a bit more experience before a fight of this magnitude. he isn't ready yet.

    Thurman is slow, flat-footed, and a left hooker = a perfect floyd opponent who offers nothing.

    Floyd will probably take this fight, i think he's easier than D. Garcia because at least Danny was tested by Matthysee. Both of those fights are crap though.

    Very Low work rate ,he would try to outbox and out think Floyd and lose 10-2

    :huh have you ever seen Thurman fight? He's constantly up on his toes and is extremely fast...I can only assume you've got him confused with somebody else...

    Because of hype. The same thing that had many believe that Broner and Canelo were pound for pound top 10 fighters.

    As an aside, it's a shame Thurman isnt more active as he could capture an audience very easily but for now the casual fans dont have a clue. If the casuals dont know you then the stars won't fight you.

    Sotto said chino hits harder than thurman but one time has plenty of power.
    in the first chino fight Floyd took his Best shots clean on the chin and clean all over his head.
    Some of the head shots are way worse than face shots and he took a clean right from a first round chino on the top left side of his head and took it.

    Floyd's chin is great and who ever denies that is clueless.
    Floyd's old man but would be favored.

    I am not going to be surprised by anything with a 38 yr old Floyd
