    Hes a bad ass and deserves his own thread. Best interview in the business if you ask me...

    i first heard of him at the press conference where Malignaggi humiliated him, then i did some reasearch and watched some of his fights and now im a believer

    This guy is the next big thing, he seems like he takes his career more seriously Adrien Boner and his punches just sound different to most boxers.

    Thruman is an exciting fighter, I admittedly haven't seen much of him, but from what I have seen he has an exciting style, kind of like a welterweight David Haye, with the power to match. I'll be watching his career with interest as he goes on.

    For the longest time I didn't actually have a favorite fighter (ones I liked retired) and simply watched boxing because I enjoy the sport but I am definitely rooting for One Time. Whether or not he ends up being a great, I like his style in and out of the ring.

    Thurman is great to watch. I've been rooting for him and think he has the right mental attitude to do well.

    Just waiting to see how things play out, but I certainly feel he is about ready for his first shot at the upper echelon of opponents and take on a lesser champion/belt holder. Even a former champion with some juice left would be a good test.

    I'd like to see him fight that guy who just took the belt from Alexander. That's a good and exciting fight.

    He's a fiery character, for sure.

    I'm not so sure about his chicken legs, however.. he needs to get in the gym and do some squats and put some meat on those sticks for legs.

    They call him "Keithy One-Time" because he says everything one time. Yeah, that's right. One time, see?

    first time i heard of him was also when i saw paulie own him in the post fight conference but the way he dismantled soto karass especially after being wobbled in the 1st round i have to say he looks a good prospect but still lacking fans

    Thurman tries too hard every time he speaks.

    Thurman is solid. He should fight Maidana, Porter or Brook.

    His legs aren't skinny like GG's...plus he can fight going backwards and box with the best of them.

    Maidana already backed out of a Thurman fight.

    He can box, but whether he can box with the best of them remains to be seen. As of now I think Mayweather boxes his ears off.
