2213941, First time I ever saw Chaves fight. I was really impressed even tho

he took the L
i think he could give a lot of the 140-147 trouble based off those first 4 rounds
that was the first time i think i've ever seen Thurman look scared like he knew he couldn't just out physical someone in the ring
speaking of thurman, he showed me he is more than just an athlete in the ring. didn't know he had that cerebral aspect to his game. the 2nd half adjustment he made was brillant. if he tightens up his defense i think he could dominate. i think he has a higher ceiling than broner for instance, but we'll see

as far as berto. meh
tons of heart but his career is over. he was in trouble multiple times BEFORE he hurt his shoulder. i've seen karass fight before and i don't remember him having the kind of power it seemed he had last night. i think berto's chin is just done at this point. he looked like jermaine taylor in there smh
