Keith Thurman vs. Frankie Gavin

One Time vs. Fun Time!

A lot of people have claimed Brook is a full level above Thurman, so I'm curious to see if anyone thinks someone Brook dominated could hang with or even beat Thurman.

I'll tack on a poll later. Posting from my phone doing a work event at some pro mountain biking race on a farm. :?

 

...but how frustrated would Thurman be with Gavin's defense? :think

It took Brook a few rounds to unlock it and Brook is sharper and less wasteful. (but less powerful)

 

I personally consider this a huge mismatch, but for those who claim Brook is a level above Thurman it ought to be a bit closer, no? I'm looking to see whose ass is good for cashing those checks their mouths wrote.

 

I do think Gavin did have loads of potential once, and those who tabbed him as being a good prospect to maybe go beyond the shores of the UK and make some noise weren't completely off-base. There was always writing on the wall in terms of his commitment, though, and from the Skeete robbery on it has been clear he won't be making the jump to world class.

 

:deal

 

I'd like to see Gavin vs. Skeete II - give him a chance to redeem himself & rebuild @ domestic level, or else just retire.

Let me rephrase - I wouldn't like to see Gavin vs. Skeete II, but think it should take place. :yep
