A few weeks back, we chatted with NBA champion and boxing fan Metta World Peace (formerly Ron Artest Jr.) to get his thoughts on the upcoming welterweight unification bout between Keith Thurman and Danny Garcia on March 4, 2017, on CBS. Metta has a deep history with boxing. His father was a boxer and he also had aspirations of becoming a professional fighter, however after the "Malice in the Palace" incident on November 19, 2004, Metta decided to give up his boxing aspirations, yet he remains an avid fan today and even manages a couple up-and-coming boxers. Check out the video to see who Metta thinks will pull off the victory and becoming the 147-pound king.
