If he wins this one, he will possibly line to call for another title fight. He's still young, and he still fits inside this division, just need to
win this upcoming fight and make his name to hype back,

He will now back again to the discussion with the same level of Spence Jr and Terence Crawford. If Thurman will win the fight and his next future fights, he can now also demand a unification fight if ever Spence or Crawford will retain their current weight class.

His loss to Pacquiao might be his wake-up call to further improve more. Let's see what he got on the day of the fight.

Definitely a very good lesson for him as a boxer when he lost to Pacquiao. With that fight, I believe he realized that age doesn't matter, it depends on how strong you are and how prepared you are as a fighter. And with that in mind, maybe, one of the reasons why he is motivated to continue his fight inside the ring. If Thurman wins, he will regain the confidence of his fans and maybe, we will see bigger fight after this.

If they will fight in the same venue, I think people are still allowed to go as long as they are already vaccinated. The implementation in the US is different compared to other countries despite they have a high number of virus infections, so I think both gate entrance and the PPV will boost if Thurman will start talking now.

Aside from New York, no states prohibit sports activities without a vaccine. But that was a mandatory requirement now.

Since the fight is a comeback of Thurman, I also think that the gate entrance and PPV will earn much. Others want to see how Thurman looks right now and if he still has that fierce action on the ring.

A loss to Barrios means Thurman is done now. I think if that happened, Thurman will retire.

Thurman is sporsbet guy? There is no contest to that yet but I think because he is already in the division before Barrios climb up making him look as if the challenger. 2.24 is like undermining Barrios skills. Although he will be adjusting the body weight, Barrios is younger and eager to prove in this class while was off the grid from some time.

Barrios @ 2.24 is even fair and not that he was really considered as a heavy underdog on that match. A heavy underdog was always on the odds of around @3.

Odds provider maybe thinks that Barrios can upset the Favorite Thurman, maybe because of the latter's inactivity and hiatus on boxing for 2 years. Less than a month to go before the fight, that speculation if Thurman will still be on his prime level on the day of the fight, will now be witnessed.

My take is Thurman winning by KO at rounds 6-7.

Yeah, he's also a good salesman, and for sure that we might see some of those stunts just like he did way back then. Those words with trash talk he does are going to flame a lot of fans.
And for sure the sales for the tickets/PPV will be boosted by him. If that's what he has to do then for sure that he's going to do it no matter what the people will tell about him. Thus, he really needs to do that because there's the threat of the virus and people should just go avail the PPV that's going to be available for their match.

Yes, there goes the live audience and that's for sure going to be there but the sales and money are more with PPV. That's what they all know and that's why they have to increase the intensity for this match with his moves. We don't know, they might ask Thurman to do that soon if the sales aren't increasing in numbers. There would be people that will watch it live but for the conservative which is more of them, they'll choose to buy those PPV tickets instead.

I think it's part of his stunt with his match against Pacman and it did really help them to take as much attention as they did. The tickets were sold and it's probably one of the highest paychecks that he took.
It's possible that he's trying to get in shape first before proceeding with those words that will take the attention of everyone especially the fans of Barrios. That's really going to make a noise again if he does.

Well, we shouldn't be surprised if this fight will be hype soon, we know that Thurman is a good marketing guy, trash talking is not new to him but at the end of the fight, he always does the most important thing which is the sportsmanship which other boxers doesn't have. Since the odds are out already, I can tell that this is going to be a popular fight.

Yeah, Thurman is the favorite but you can also choose Barrios if you feel he will win the fight. He got some skills that's why he only has one loss and that is against Davis which is a knockout puncher. Thurman is a mature guy in boxing and he also has a good KO percentage, so it's really up to you to weigh things and decide what fighter you'll put your bet.

Since the odds are out already, I can tell that this is going to be a popular fight.

Some fights have the odds available only days before the fight, but this one we have early odds where we can check and we can put our bet at the same time. We have the consensus here and the majority are bettong on Thurman to win.

The odds may change when the fight is close to the day, I would suggest not to bet, for now, stake.com has not even displayed their odd. Yes, this is a popular fight because both fighters possess titles in the past with a long list of winning streaks in the sport. Both are very experienced, I think this will be a very fair odd that there wouldn't be bookmakers' favorite.

It's not displayed in stake yet but they have listed it already.

While Sportsbet already has the odds available, you can check and maybe bet on the site.

Every nice odds for Thurman, getting 1.58 is not that bad knowing how good he is in the ring.

Barrios had a good chance of winning against Davis in his previous fight but he was hurt so it did not go to the scorecards.

he only has 1 loss but with Thurman, I think it will be 2 soon.

And he will do everything to win again. It's an exemption fighting Pacman, now that the legend is out and earns the best experience in his career already, it's time for him to come back and start dominating again, giving the top-ranking welterweights a real challenge.

Well, all of the boxers will do everything to win most of their matches. For sure that Thurman is going to be well prepared on this but I'm missing the part that he's hyping his match just like what he did with his match against Pacman. He should do that and throw some interesting words against Barrios for them to get the interest of the crowd. I guess he has to do it so that the same attention will be given to him on this match.

Maybe he doesn't want to at this point because he has learnt his hard lessons from the Pacman fight.

Or maybe he is focusing first on the fight, trying to get into shape before making any predictions or trash talking in public. Barrios too has some interviews but he didn't have any bad mouth to say at Thurman at this point. So both of them are playing safe, nevertheless as the fight gets closer some interesting words might be thrown by either of the side to bring more spice in this fight.

Thurman is taking a different approach in this fight and base on this interviews this is what he has to say specially about the demand for boxing for a PPV:

Quote

“All other contact sports have found a way to reduce the contact in the sport. Not boxing. Not boxing, not UFC, because we are the original contact sport. We are the only real contact sport that is still alive, still living still breathing. yes, the referee will jump and stop the fight, yes the referee is in there to protect the fighter and fighters in today’s generation are taking a little bit less damage. But there is no sport like boxing. every punch to the head is a mild concussion. We know that. And so for me to be here to be speaking full sentences to you right now is a blessing from above.

“That’s why we’re going to keep striving, living this dream, putting ourselves on the line, knowing that one day we don’t know what’s gonna happen when we step out of the ring. I wanna see my family, I wanna hold my child, I want to be able to talk to her and talk to my family, but we don’t know. So when fighters say that they’re done, they’re done and we salute them and we respect them for what they put into this ring, you know?”

https://www.boxingscene.com/thurman-makes-case-pay-per-view-no-sport-like-boxing-every-punch-head-mild-concussion--163457

He also touch the subject that he is not done with the sports and that he still has some in his tank.

So we will see if this is true the fight will happen less than a month from now so for sure we fans are very excited for this fight.

Well, he didn't make an excuse and that's good for him as being undefeated who had his first loss, he will certainly learn a lot from that fight, and going forward he will continue to improve. I'm expecting a better Thurman in his coming fight, a more matured fighter that could easily beat his opponent. I believe after this fight we will see some speculation on a possible fight for him against Spence or Crawford if both will win on their respective fights.

If he wins this one, he will possibly line to call for another title fight. He's still young, and he still fits inside this division, just need to
win this upcoming fight and make his name to hype back, that last loss is a privilege. He fought against a legend and for sure, he
learned from that fight.

We will see what preparation he did before this fight, if he still that same form and the same stamina from that last time we saw him
inside the ring.

I think that's what motivates Thurman to come back and claim his place in the welterweight. The two names that are popping up in the discussion is Crawford and Spence. Prior to that, it was Thurman, Danny Garcia, Pacquiao and Porter (both retired).

So he wanted to throw his name on the mix again as to who is the best in this division. So if he wins, definitely, he will call either Spence or Crawford for his next fight.

That's enough for him to win against Barrios as he was able to survive against Pacman who is faster and a heavy puncher too. Barriors is not on the same level as Pacman, Spence, and Crawford, so he should take care of him easily and beat to improve his ranking again. I used to see Thurman in the top 5, I'm sure I will see him again at that ranking soon.
