Thurman has good power, but KO's & KD's always slow down as your competition increases.

Thurman has more pure power than Broner. Broner has faster hand speed & Porter didn't see it coming. It's boxing. These things happen.

Porter has an excellent chin.

I really don't like posts saying a guy was exposed when he is fighting one of the best guys in the division & by far the toughest guy on his resume. Of course it was going to be a tough fight.

KO's come down with competition, because you're not hitting guys as flush, because they are boxing smarter.

Thurman caught Porter flush lots of times, and didn't come close to dropping, when Broner landed his hook flush he dropped Spence.

Thurman's power is overrated, plain and simple, he's not a heavy puncher like Spence he doesn't have that dynamic power. It's just a fact.

Spence fighting an Italian by the name of Bundu, and Thurman already beat him.:jbhmm:

I just saw Ponomarev is out of a fight because of a hand injury so Bundu is a replacement.

Thurman ran from Bundu has the fight continued, he landed the temple shot early in the fight and dropped bundu, that's the only why he can drop guys.

Afterwards Bundu was unphased by his power, and thumran retreated the rest of the fight.
You will see the difference when spence destroys the guy.

:mjlol::stopitslime:If you think Broner beat Porter then I can't take ya opinion on anything boxing related serious. Broner didn't win more then 2 rounds and looked more ugly wit all that holding then Porter has looked in any fight. I don't even know if I gave him a 10-8 round in that 12th cuz he do shyt after that knockdown

Bruh...I don't care how you feel about my opinion. It's my opinion. Porter brought the fight to broner and did indeed frustrate him...but as far as actual boxing, broner out did porter. Porter did the same thing he did then tonight...make it ugly and control the ring through physicality...NOT BY ACTUALLY THROWING HANDS TO LAND SHOTS....he got caught clean at the end of the fight because broner had a moment of clarity from the frustration ....that had been open ALL NIGHT. I got love for porter he's from up the street, but his boxing skill didn't win that fight for him. Hustle did...he was actually out boxed imo.

Broner has hesitant as fuk in that fight, he was afraid of porters press, he got one good shot in at the end but it was too late and was dominated

I would love to see a rematch

seriously you speaking about yourself and all those other dikk riders in the coli

you are dikk riding because you can't handle opinions.

I always said Thuman's power was overrated, he's already been shown to be weak to the body, he hasn't looked dominate in the ring in years, with that I said I clearly this was a hell of fight, so what exactly is your problem? You clearly ignored all my other posts.

You have no objectivity, if you had a problem with I said, Thurman looked sloppy and times, he couldn't drop porter even when he hit him flush. These are facts.

Thurman was hyped as the next big thing and he ain't that, it's just simple.

You lame as fukk for catching feelings about some bullshyt.

I think that Russian Spence is fighting next can beat Thurman, and I know Spence can Knock Keith Thurman out, sorry if you're mad.

Mad? Nah homie, I just see thru your bullshyt :yeshrug:. U been hating on Thurman, aint shyt new homie :pachaha:. And I never called u a dikkrider bruh? Every time I try to criticize sime shyt respectfully you nikkas get out of line, I'm gone keep shyt cool though and avoid all that back and fourth shyt if I can't literally punch you. It's all good though fam.

I agree about the body shots, Thurman gotta work on taking them bytches. Other than that, dude is one of the most accurate punchers you will ever see, can fight and win at ANY style, and can connect clean punches from any angle. If u don't see possible greatness out of dawg then I don't know what to tell you. He handled the pressure from Porter EASILY. Poster is no scrub nikka, of course he was not gone get dominated. But he clearly lost that fight, he lost the fight that was fought in HIS areas of comfort. It was the fight that HE wanted to fight, and he lost. It is what it is.
