Commentator Shawn Porter says Wednesday’s Comeback match for the former Unified Welterweight Champion Keith Thurman and Brock Jarvis is a ”60-40 ″ One in his eyes in their 10-round head liner at the Hordern Pavilion, in Sydney, Australia. Porter gives 36-year-old Thurman (30-1, 22) the lead based on his experience, skills and mobility.
What worry about Brock (22-1, 20 COs) is that he told him he wanted to slowly start against Thurman, and “respond” to what Keith is doing. Porter considers it a wrong strategy to defeat Thurman, who has only defeated Marios Barrios in 2022 against Marios Barrios since 2019.
The wrong strategy?
Shawn believes that Brock should push quickly and make Thurman fight harder than he equipped at his age to do after being inactive for the past eight years. He has only fought four times since 2017. It is only based on youth and punch.
Yesterday Thurman looked He lived Under a bridge. He had the Haggard, the age of someone who has lived a hard life for the past three years. If I were to guess Keith’s age without knowing it, I would say at least 45. What on earth did Thurman do to himself to look like this?
Brock slowly started in his last fight against Adrian Rodriguez before dropping off with big shots at him to get a knockout in the fourth round. He looked like he could stop in the first round if he went on the attack immediately.
“What Brock told me is that he is known to be aggressive and starting quickly. He doesn’t want to do it. He wants to start more slowly and respond to Keith. It’s not a good game plan, ‘Shawn Porter said to the media About what Brock Jarvis told him about what he plans to do in his fight against Keith Thurman this week on Wednesday, March 12.
‘Keith is so unpredictable and can do so many things. You try to get on his rhythm, and that’s literally what he wants you to do. I don’t know if Brock can see it and make an adjustment. That said, it’s a 60/40 fight. Keith can control the scope, distance, the rhythm, speed and pace, ”Porter continued.
Brock has to put it on him and really push his heartbeat. If he does, I think he can pull out this one, ”says Shawn.
