    Thurman is on Porters level.
    Brook via UD

    LOL Thurman did in 3 rounds what Porter couldn't do in 20 rounds to Diaz how is that the same level.
    Porter has very little movement and is predictable and very hittable look at the Brook fight.
    Brook is strong and quick but very straight forward.
    Thurman uses the angles and movement combined with speed and power.
    Thurman will hurt Brook..... Good fight Thurman by KO

    I can see Thurman using his lateral movement and speed early on but as the fight goes on he's going to get tagged more and more. Guerro was coming on late as Thurman was gassed and getting roughed up on the ropes. Both Brook and Thurman have the power to hurt each other also. I think Brook will eek a decision if the fight goes the full 12. I don't think either fighter has felt power though like eachother it could very well be Thurman wins by early KO before 6 or Brook by late stoppage also.


    It's really up in the air both Thurman and Brook are strong , heavy handed, talented fighters, and It'll put us all on the edge of our seats for sure.

    Too bad Kell wont go anywhere near Thurman. He is too busy looking at guys like Frankie Gavin and Bum Bum Rios.

    It's difficult because I've seen posters saying he will duck Rios and I'm just like WTH!

    It's funny if Khan won't fight anybody that would ruin a fight with Mayweather and then Brook won't fight anyone that would ruin the fight with Khan BUT I don't think that's the case. Hearn has been talking about JMM, Thurman, Gavin, Rios, so let's wait and see.
