    Default Keith Thurman = WW David Haye?

    Does he remind anyone else stylistically of a WW David Haye (I mean that as a compliment)?

    He even has the corn rows!

    They are similar , however Thurman has much stronger toes than Haye.
    Remember reality is an illusion caused by a lack of alcohol .

    Hadn't thought of that but they are similar enough for sure. They move the same way, looking to set up their power shots with lateral movement and feints almost exclusively, darting in and out, don't really use the jab or throw much down the middle. Both great punchers and finishers, will be fun to see what Thurman does from here there are a whole slew of fun fights we could see him in.

    I see a passion and desire in Thurman that I don't in Haye. In fairness Haye has competed on a higher scale. On another note yeh, the hair is similar as well as both having a flair for the 3rd person and wrestlin theatrics..they also talk funny

    Great comparison. They both fight off their athleticism .

    One really wants to be champion while the other is a habitual con artist.

    They do have a similar complexion and hair style though.

    Wait until Keith starts calling his right hand "The Thurmanator" then we'll know they're long lost brothers.

    They do seem to have similar foot and upper body movement styles however Thurman is higher volume and I feel that he is more adaptive in the ring and can fight using more than just in an ambush style.

    Well excuuse us hotshot lol. It was a figurative comparison so u dont need to get all technical. Of course no two people are going to be exactly the same..

    But haye and thurman have a lot in common..

    How did Thurman do in his last fight? I am a fan of his but just waiting for him to implode.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    He did what he was supposed to do against an opponent of Karass' caliber but he got rocked in the first round.. he clearly has a lot to work on..

    I dont think thurman is all that..

    They wear different shoes sizes too. Also haye is from britain and thurman is from america. They are not really alike, beans..
