Following his dominant third-round knockout victory over Brock Jarvis, Keith “One Time” Thurman had a lot to say at the post-fight press conference. The former WBA Welterweight Champion was in high spirits, clearly proud of his performance, but also eager to look ahead to the next challenge. As expected, Thurman didn’t waste any time in calling out one of the biggest names in the sport: Tim Tszyu.

Thurman Reacts to His KO Victory Over Jarvis

Thurman, who had been out of the ring for a while due to injuries and inactivity, made a statement in his return to the big stage. After stopping Jarvis in the third round with a vicious right hand, Thurman didn’t mince words when reflecting on his performance.

“It feels great to be back in the ring and to get this victory. I’ve been working hard, and I knew my time would come again. I wanted to show everyone that the power is still there, and I’m still capable of doing damage at the top level. Jarvis is a tough kid, and he’s going to bounce back stronger, but tonight, I was the better fighter,” Thurman said with a smile.

He also took a moment to acknowledge the crowd’s energy and the support he’d received. “I’ve always said that the fans make the fight, and tonight, you guys were electric. That’s what keeps me going. I can feel the hunger, and I’m more motivated than ever.”

The KO itself was textbook Thurman—precise, powerful, and calculated. When asked about the moment of the knockout, Thurman explained, “I saw it coming. I was measuring him throughout the fight, staying patient, and waiting for that opening. When I landed that right hand, I knew it was over. That’s what I do best: I finish when the opportunity presents itself.”

Call-Out to Tim Tszyu: “Let’s Make It Happen!”

But Thurman didn’t stop there. He wasted no time in setting his sights on the next challenge: Tim Tszyu, the rising star from Australia who is coming off an impressive victory over Tony Harrison for the WBO super welterweight title. Tszyu, who is quickly making a name for himself as one of the most dangerous fighters in the division, was clearly in Thurman’s sights after the win.

“I’ve been hearing a lot about Tim Tszyu, and I respect what he’s doing in the sport. He’s a talented fighter with a lot of potential. But you know what? If he wants to prove he’s the real deal, then he needs to step into the ring with me,” Thurman said, looking confident and focused.

“I’m not here to play around. I’m here for the big challenges. Tszyu’s got that belt now, and it’s time for him to face a true veteran. I’ve been there, I’ve fought the best. If he wants to be a champion, he’s going to have to face me.”

Thurman’s call-out came with the kind of intensity that’s become a trademark of his career. He made it clear that he’s not just looking for a warm-up fight or a tune-up. He wants the top guys in the division, and he believes Tszyu would be the perfect challenge.

“I’m not afraid to take risks, and I’m not afraid to face the toughest guys. Tim Tszyu’s next, and I’m ready to take that fight to the next level. So, Tim, if you’re listening—let’s make it happen,” Thurman declared, adding a final flourish with a confident grin.

What’s Next for Thurman?

With this victory, Thurman once again finds himself in the mix of the welterweight elite. There are plenty of exciting matchups ahead for the veteran, and the call-out to Tszyu is just the beginning. Thurman’s knockout win over Jarvis proved that he still has the fire and the skills to be a top contender, but he made it clear that he’s only interested in facing the best.

When asked about his future, Thurman was resolute. “I’m back at the top. The welterweight division is loaded with talent, but I’m not here to just be a contender. I’m here to be a champion again. Whether it’s Tszyu, Spence, Crawford, or anyone else, I’m ready for the biggest fights.”

The welterweight division is currently filled with some of the most exciting fighters in the sport, and Thurman’s return to form has only added another layer of intrigue. The showdown between Thurman and Tszyu could be one of the most compelling matchups in the division, and it’s clear that Thurman wants to put himself back in the title picture.
