    Thurman would **** his trunks when Spence landed to his body. It's irrefutable that Kieth Thurman has a glass body.

    I used to think this fight was a toss up but after the Bundu fight im starting to have my doubts about spence. I mean first he didnt look as over powering as hes looked recently (yeah i know he got the ko)
    and he continues to take shots with his stiff neck and going straight back. He seems to generate a lot of power on his punches but doesnt seem to be able to do the same on the move. Against Thurman who is going to be moving and throwing back bombs he could get brutalized by thurmans power. I mean look at porter who is an absolute animal but Thurman was able to handle his pressure.
    I think Spence is going to have trouble with Thurmans movement and he better be able to take a punch because hes going to get hit and hit hard.

    This seems to be the go to argument every time for Thurman haters. The guy got caught by a clean body punch that shouldve dropped him but like a champ he didnt go down and not only survived but came back to win by ko.
    Against porter who is a bull with a heavy punch he again took a good shot to the body that hurt him a bit but definitely nothing like the Collazo fight and he seemed fine taking every other body punch except for those two. Let get over the glass body bs.

    You'll be singing a different tune when that glass body of his gives out. It's not an if but a when situation.

    No. Spence wins. Without going into detail. And I like both boxers, completely objective viewpoint.

    Like both guys but I truly see Spence limiting the movement of Keith. Spence has the skills to back him up and dog him on the inside
    I might be wrong

    Thurman is obviously the man at this weight currently. His movement and the ability to get in and out while throwing hard shots on the move is hard for anyone to overcome. Yea he gets hurt to the body but he recovers well so unless it puts him down he will get out of dodge and come roaring back. Spence has already bodied him before but the pro game is quite different and fighters evolve. Spence I think still needs more time. He needs to work on his punching on the move and lateral movement so he does not go straight back against a banger who can move like Thurman. Spence has alot of the tools to beat Thurman but needs to polish up if he wants better chances.

    Brook is the darkhorse and thee avoided man at this weight but he may not be able to come back down after fighting at MW sucessfully.

    Porter is tough for anyone and will test not only your boxing skills but your testicular fortitude.

    Throw in old Manny, old Bradley, Khan, and the possibility of Crawford moving up and this division is really exciting with alot of pick em fights.

    Then theres Danny Garcia whatever is happening to him. :tired

    Man it really seemed like he was going places after that Matthysse win. Then he fought Herrera and his career got derailed. He doesn't even seem too interested in it anymore either and hasn't fought the level of compeition he should of been fighting since that fight. He even told Peterson that he won. I think while alot of boxers who lose or lose a fight and win the decision he isn't as delusional. He knows what fights he has lost and maybe it is hard on him or has out too much doubt in his own head. He can still put his career back on track but it doesn't seem like it will happen.

    IDK .

    I think he is beginning to doubt himself like you said .

    DSG wants acceptance from the boxing world, you can see it .

    Hes not getting it , the majority does not care for him .

    The Puerto ricanz don't accept him either from the looks of it

    Shocking I was not aware he admitted defeat to Peterson.

    Surely the first man he should admitted defeat to was Herrera .
