Essential The Official Boxing Random Thoughts Thread...All boxing heads ENTER.

I’m iffy on this guy but he basically made a Keith/Derrick Rose comparison vid and it’s not too bad... boy speaks facts around the 10 Minute mark.. at least how I felt.


It’s over Huh Thurmanators? @King P @malbaker86 @LauderdaleBoss

That nikka in the video acts like the young uncle at the reunion that's trying too hard to be cool, so he don't fit in at the adult table or the kids table.

Dude sounding like a disappointed ex-girlfriend. Thurman ain't hide from his fans. We all knew he was in the mountains healing up doing his wandering Ryu routine. Dude got too used to being injured and recovering. Seeing that welter moves so damn slow, its not like he never truly gotten out of the mix. nikkas acting like so much shyt happened at 147 while Thurman was sidelined. More shyt started moving after the Pac loss than anything.

Hurd is more forgotten at 154 than Thurman is at 147 if we wanna keep it real. If Thurman gonna come back and look as bad as Hurd did, he may as well keep chilling.

I feel his point at the 10 min mark, but what can you do. shyt happens.

i can only imagine the reaction if a youtuber flattens an MMA fighter...im waiting to see what those odds are going to be like?

Jake is -280 right now. Ben +190. But wouldn't be surprised to see the odds get tighter. Those are wild to me. A dude with 2 "pro" fights is essentially a 3 to 1 favorite over a legit professional and world class wrestler. I know Ben became a laughing stock after that flying knee KO but he's still been in far more real fights then Jake.

I don't see Ben coming to box. He's gonna try to make this shyt as ugly as possible and break Jake's will. And Jake even had trouble with Nate's reckless come forward style at first. If Jake can't hurt Ben early it's gonna get interesting.

he's a wrestler not a boxer and his hand game is trash for someone who has been fighting as long as he has.. he will make it rough but like nate if this offense lacking will need to be super on point defensively so he doesnt clocked upside his head..hopefully he actually posts sparring vids so we can gauge some more

I don't see this being a walk in the park for Jake. This isn't a basketball player or another YouTuber. Ben has a weak hand game but he's also a legit fighter who has been able to withstand serious punishment. And his gas tank is impressive. He could make it grueling and wear Jake down. Jake will finally be fighting a guy with a real fighting background. I wanna see if he has that dog in him. I expect Ben to smother him and see if he can take jake to deep waters. If it goes past 6 it'll be anybody's game. If Jake makes easy work of him I'll be impressed.

How many rounds this BS ass fight has been written out for?

How many rounds this BS ass fight has been written out for?

8. We've never seen Jake go past 2

I refuse to treat that dude as an actual pro fighter but anyway, good luck to them I guess

Not real sparring but still something. It ain't pretty ......but still looks like he plans on smothering him and grinding him down. I think he'll at least show better defense than Nate just from all his years of fighting experience .....there's no doubt Jake should win if we're just going off boxing talent. But I'm not sold on him being able to fight through adversity. He might actually have to dig deep in this one. Then we'll really see what he's made of.


If Ben gets slumped it's still gonna be a bad look for MMA though

Ennis and Vergil Ortiz keep saying they to fight Thurman...Keith isn't used to losing. Would be a huge mistake.
