What a great sportsman that Thurman is! I just wish every athlete were like this...
Thurman did an incredible amount of trash talking before the fight, but I chalk that up to hyping the fight in order to maximize the box office.
After the fight he didn’t whine about how he was robbed of the decision and was genuinely humble and sincere in his assessment of Manny’s greatness as a boxer.
Manny also showed a lot of class regarding Thurman post fight.
I’m always impressed how at the end of a boxing match after 2 guys spent the entire bout trying to beat the crap out of each other hug it out and exchange pleasantries.
Yep, it is refreshing for sure.
