    And Brook isn't anything special. Thurman is a massive step up.

    Brook is better than Thurman IMO and Spence is a stylistic matchup problem for Thurman. Thurman has problems with people who throw a lot of punches and not let him get his punches off.

    Thurman only throws one punch at a time. He doesn't throw combinations. Spence will easily win rounds by just staying active. Thurman has shown he can be hurt to the head and body. I think Spence stops him.

    You are making out Thurman is limited when he has beaten fighters that have the style that you claim would beaten him. Porter is very active and lost.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Thurman is like a less athletic Roy Jones. Not a ton of skillful fighting but athleticism brings him to the top. Thurman is super athletic but isn't the complete athletic freak that Jones was.

    I definitely think that Thurman is a good fighter and I like him. I just don't see him as an elite fighter whatsoever. Top 10 p4p? Perhaps. But a top 5? No way. Spence may not be there yet but he will get there soon I think

    Thurman is quiet as a mouse.

    If he wants these big paydays he needs to start making up some noise in the divison.

    I like Thurman but I second that Brook is a better boxer than Thurman.Keith seems to find a way to win, do you can never count him out.Still I'd favor the body punching and talented Spence.

    You what take Porter away from Kell's record and what's he done?
    Not to mention he quit in back to back fights in his own backyard!
    Thurman has beaten better and so far he's not lost (let alone quit)

    Brook probably wouldn't even beat Khan let alone Thurman
    In 13 years and after 38 fights, Brook has one good win on his record
    Thurman has had 10 less fights and has already beaten better and done more.

    Kell Brook is shit! I know there's a lot of Brits posting on here
    But come on guys let's be honest. Kell has fallen far short at elite level.

    That is harsh on Kell, who is a very decent fighter and can hold his own against the top US fighters.

    Anyone at welterweight who steps in the ring with GGG would be damaged.

    All these welters are too inactive.

    thurmans gone quiet. Spence has taken too long to set up his first defence. Danny Garcia never fights. Brooks fights once a year. Khan hasn't fought in over a year.

    what wrong with these guys. Sooner Crawford moves up and cleans out the division the better.

    Thurman is injured.

    Spence needs a rest.

    Garcia is hugging his dad.

    Khan is divorcing his wife.

    Yeah, they're all wank! Guys like Trinidad, Mosley and De La Hoya
    Would smash these guys in their primes in my opinion
    Even Quartey and Forrest would've been favoured.

    Brook has no heart, Khan has no chin and Garcia looks shot
    Thurman, Spence and Porter are decent but need to be more active.

    I won't even bother telling you what Leonard
    And Hearns would do to these guys

    Brook beat Porter better than Thurman did. Calling him sh-t is ridiculous.

    One night and one fight doesn't mean much
    Especially when you've quit twice in a row
    Brook might not be shit but he's nothing special

    I've never been a big Brook fan but he does have skills.
