    He's not One-Dimensional, he's adjusted before. Over-hyped? Sure, but he's a ton of potential.

    Apologies i know its off topic but I would say the age of some of the members on this site is quite young. You only have to look at the endless Floyd vs Manny threads to see that the people on here are immature, they post the same thing everyday. Or they get involved in wild speculation posting comments and theories with not one single FACT to back the comments up.

    I agree that Thurman's chin is suspect. But he has already proven he is at least not a one dimensional fighter. And the guy is hella entertaining in and out of the ring. He wants to fight the best and he goes for the knockout. So far none of the top guys believe he is as shitty as some of you here do. Otherwise someone would be calling him out for an easy nights work. Same situation as GGG. Other boxers recognize the potential and consider them too high a risk for the reward. Even though due to this hype, the fights would bring good money and would also afford the winner even more hype for future paydays.

    He is what he is, crude and (still) unpolished. On ESB of course, he is (over)hyped. But the 'tards and kiddo's on ESB hardly represent anything.

    The hate is very strong on this site for thurman. I think he'll be a top 10 pfp in the next few years. I do have some doubt as far as his IQ in the ring. Has great offense and always goes for the KO but it could hurt him sometime in the future. For now he's "One Time" and a serious contender whether the haters like it or not.

    Look at it from a different angle and or perspective and you can say the guy has an awesome amount of grit, toughness and integrity. I never trust a fighter that doesnt work his way through adversity and he's done that and won via KO. I still can't get a hold of how some fans rate fighters and their overall potential. Not blowing my own horn but I've been on point with my perdications and evals of fighters for as long as I've been involved in the sport which is 20yrs now and I trust my opinion more than anyone. A lot of cats on this forum (unfortunately) are ill-informed and are terrible judges of character and even worse judges of fighters.
