Boxing: Keith Thurman and Brock Jarvis didn't hold back as the pair traded verbal barbs, ahead of their bout on March 12.
One of the greatest welterweights of the modern era was beamed into a Sydney press conference on Wednesday, where he took aim at the rising Aussie prospect who will become his first opponent in three years.
“You don’t run boxing,” stressed the fighter whose last outing was a win over no less than current WBC welterweight champ Mario Barrios. “The US runs boxing”. Regardless, Thurman cared little for any of that on Wednesday as he and Jarvis were involved in a wonderfully heated exchange, despite being seated in studios on separate sides of the globe.
“He’s stated that he’s a power puncher,” the Aussie said of Thurman. “But he hasn’t knocked anyone out in 10 years.“He also had a scheduled fight last year , but pulled out with an ‘old man’ injury.“So I’m a bit worried actually that he might not show up.“This is not about Brock,” he warned.“But when Keith Thurman steps into that ring, it’s always The Thurman Show.“This is going to be one of the greatest comebacks in 2025.
“I should’ve just beat Tim Tszyu one handed. You all saw what happened , it was a big mistake. You mess with the big fish, US – we run boxing. You don’t run boxing, we run boxing.
