Mister Guerrero, me quito el sombrero, es usted un cabron
Now, this is the one to watch. Thurman is dazzling. When Sugar Ray Leonard can’t stop saying good things about you, you’re doing something very right.
The commentary (on NBC) was horrible. Bland & boring.
Did I just see a ghost?…
I would like to see thurman vs khan, both are really quick!!!
