Shawn Porter Assesses Thurman vs. Jarvis

Former world champion Shawn Porter shared his thoughts on the upcoming clash between Keith Thurman (30-1, 22 KOs) and Brock Jarvis (22-1, 20 KOs), offering his take on who holds the upper hand.

"I see this as a 60-40 fight. I believe Keith can control the distance, rhythm, speed, pace—everything. Brock needs to pressure him, really put in the work, and if he does that, I think he could pull it off. But we'll see.

I haven't seen a strong jab from Brock, and with his height, he really needs one—especially against Keith. Thurman plays with rhythm, then breaks out of it to mix things up. A solid jab would stabilize him, but Brock doesn't really have that kind of jab," Porter explained.

Thurman and Jarvis are set to meet on March 12 in Sydney. Detailed stats and fight analysis from RTFight can be found at this link.
