Keith “ Once ” Thurman and Brock Jarvis were both successfully weighed at 153 3/4 pounds for their junior fight of 10 laps on March 12 at the Hordern Pavilion, in Sydney, Australia. Thuman (30-1, 22 ko) looked in excellent shape for someone who came out of a three-year layout. You can say that he put the work.
You cannot exclude Thurman, 36, losing this fight because of his age and his inactivity. When he was still active, he never beat any of the killers in Welterweight. His best victories came against Shawn Porter and Danny Garcia. When he expressed his against 40 years, Manny Pacquiao, he lost.
The Thurman vs Jarvis event will be displayed on the PBC YouTube Channel on Wednesday March 12.
The young fighter, Jarvis, 27 years old (22-1, 20 ko), looked a little drained. You could say that he had grown hard to lose weight and descend up to the limit of 154 lb. Brock has increased in the past seven years. It is difficult to believe that Jarvis was fighting at Bantamweight [118 lbs] in 2018.
Admittedly, he was 20 years old at the time, but it was a considerable leap in weight for someone who has already reached this age. His power is good, but it is super fast, and that could be a problem for him. In Jarvis’ recent fight, his blow looked weak and slow. He seemed to be temporary to launch his power, and it was against a companion, Adrian Rodriguez (13-10-2).
“This is the key for Keith, its delivery system. He has always been a large perforator, and with this technique, he brings his whole body into the rhythm and the technique of punch, “said Shawn to the media About Keith Thurman’s punch form before his fight against Brock Jarvis.
“I saw Keith eliminate guys when we were 15 and 16 years old. The power he has is real. I think we saw him somehow disappear at 147 pounds. I think he’s like me. He became more a boxer and the more a point fighter. I was not trying to be a points fighter. I was trying to be fast. I think that at 154, we will see that power will come back as it was, ”said Porter.
