    His score was much closer to reality than yours.

    You had Thurman winning 10 and 11 when Garcia swept the last three rounds.

    You still have to jab your opponent to win rounds. Can't just get on your bike, otherwise your opponent doesn't have to do much to win the round.

    Pretty sure there was usually an early-to-mid round every Mayweather fight he almost deliberately lost on that basis to see how his opponent closes him down, what angles he gives him, etc, so he could close out the fight easier in the closing stages.

    Do we think Danny has the heart to comeback from this loss?

    Spence is one of the most devastating body punchers in the sport he would take his legs away from the body work and body thurman in 7.

    There was no sweeping whatsoever in any of the last 5 rounds from either man.

    You know deep down those last 3 rounds were B.S, but you were right - Thurman did win, and clearly won too.

    It gets increasingly hard to support him, I like him but it's hard to truly support that kind of stuff.

    Disagree I could totally see it 7-5 either way, I could even see a draw. The lopsided scores are the ridiculous ones imo.

    Rnd 12 I gave to Thurman. Garcia was chassing and throwing punches but they didn't land. Thurman was picking his shots and even though a lower output, his shots landed. To me it was ineffective aggression on Garcia.

    I heard that. Thurman tore his ass up and Danny knows it. You see Angel wasn't talking no smack because he knew too. Yeah he took a couple of rounds off but he won that twelfth round. It don't even matter because Thurman was breaking him off proper the whole fight.

    Keith won by a number of rounds. I thought Garcia won the 12th, the 10th, and the 6th I think it was, besides that it was pretty much all Thurman. I just liked the way Thurman came in there and really started punching with conviction from the opening bell. Thurman nearly dropped Garcia at one point, another time turned DSG around with punch. Keith Thurman impressed me so much, I just can't say enough good things about this guy. He was so focused in there, he deserves this. I guess that meditation stuff really works!!
