Just listen to this Cocky Cunt!
This is why I can't stand him, believes his own damn hype
Please put someone who can punch back against him so he can shut his lisping big mouth!
Why don't these idiotic fools take a page out of Hattons or Klitchskos book and learn to be polite and respectful instead of coming across as some uneducated street rats.
You sound extremely butt hurt about this guy but what is wrong with his personality? He's a young 25 year old trying to make his way up through the ranks. He's 23-0 with 21 knockouts, he's confident, what is wrong with that? I've never heard him disrespect other opponents in post fight interviews either but the guy wants the biggest fights and he displays strong skills. So what is your problem with ONE TIME?
Claiming everyone and their dog is ducking him. Gets a bit boring you see.
When he fights someone of decent opposition and does well ill praise him til then his fake persona isn't going to buy me

Judging a man by his personal issues relating to whatever misuse he has contributed to has nothing to do with boxing or disrespecting other fighters.
If you had ever met Ricky you would know without a doubt he is one of the most honest down to earth people you can ever meet.
Have you met Keith Thurman? If not then get the eff out of here!
I have nothing to hate, I just don't like him and his fake scripted bs he's feeding people.
I can relate to boxers like Porter who I think is a damn good boxer and human being.
I guess everyone to their own, I think everyone will be in for a surprise when his true colours show. I like to follow boxers closely and Thurman is one guy who oozes fake and hype together to me.
Instead of him I think people like Rigo as boring as he is should be rated and given more hype.
Boxing was never a gentleman's sport and nor am I asking for it to be that. I just expect some sort of humbleness from fighters especially a guy who let's face it has fought no fighter worth a mention as of yet.

I like him! He calls all these fighters and he's fighting them! And I like punchers! This guy is no mayweather. He's got power & willing to fight!
I hope he's wouldnt become a ducker once his name become bigger!
He has to believe in himself because he's in this business. He still has a lot to prove and he's probably taking a page out of Ali's and Mayweather's book. This guy is a freakin' boxer, not a politician. Who cares about his personality. I just like to watch him fight and I love his style.
People who LACK CONFIDENCE always hate the ones WITH CONFIDENCE and they are quick to mistake it for ARROGANCE!
If Fighters Don't Like His Confidence...DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! GO SHUT HIM UP! But not many fighters are trying to do that, instead they want to pretend like he they never heard of him.
We speaking or posting rather, from a FANS POINT OF VIEW, Thurman is speaking from a FIGHTERS POINT OF VIEW! NO FIGHTER should be submissive to another fighter especially one in his Division and one he is trying to chase down and may one day try to defeat
He is a Welterweight so he should want a shot a Mayweather, he should be calling out Porter.
Fans and their SELECTIVE ACCEPTANCE of Certain Fighters
There was nothing ****y or disrespectful about what he said in this interview.
We need young starts like this in boxing, who wanna make the fights the fans wanna see and not afraid to fight the best opposition and put there 0's on the line instaed of protecting them and dodging the best fighters in there prime.
We need young stars like One Time and Canelo who aren't afraid to test themselves and fight the best and he rehabilitate boxings image with casual fans.
I'm reading you loud and clear, brother - he's a fake! His persona is so easy to see through, some eejits will fall for it. To be fair I though he came on strong in the second half of the interview and made a bit more sense, was a little more sincere. I don't mind boxers doing what they have to do to sell themselves, it's just that there's very little truth in Thurman's character - like you say, he's trying too hard. His acting is worse than some lower-end WWE wrestler.
Having an opinion nowadays is a crime, thats my analysis on the guy, he has a fake personality and tries to hard to sell himself. Yeah we know you have 21KO's in 23 fights, Wilder has much more, but is that supposed to impress me? No.
I wouldn't be too bothered if it weren't for his demeanour in the Soto post fight interview where he started going off at Malignaggi. Like I said its easy to sit here and say "TS" is xyz and so but take 15 mins of your lives to look through his interviews and you will the side I have this dislike for.
And for the insensitive moron who said who cares about the kids I worked with, I cared because they're no less important than some hyped up boxer.
My interaction is of that with humans who can learn to respect one another rather than mouth off at every opportunity.
For fu.kkin sakes its boxing, a sport not a persona rehabilitation thats what you have to do to stay relevant while winning.
Many people come from a mother who works 9-5, you see it, I see it and so does the world. It makes no difference. His attitude about being able to KO anybody and everybody is what pisses me off. People talk **** here n there but this guy has a serious case of verbal diarrhoea.
I don't fall for that BS "I came from a bad upbringing man, my dad used to toss off into a sock in front of me man" I worked with children with extremely horrendous backgrounds who are now very successful grown adults never did they try the sop story of being bought up from some ****ty background.
He is overhyped and overrated, when he fights a serious contender and if he puts on a good fight I will rate him, till then I will hate his guts as he is just another hype job.
Okay.. and? Everyones different. Who cares about the kids you worked with and how othey are now. Was Zaveck not a serious contender? Pretty sure Chaves has some goods in him too despite being an unknown.
His trash talk is really not that bad, in fact compared to most boxers, his trash talk is pretty mellow. He is very respectful to his opponents, he was basically praising Soto Karass pre-fight for having the balls to fight him(seriously watch the post fight conference, he rains compliments on him). I think he is just annoyed that so many Welterweights are unwilling to fight him. I don't think everybody is ducking him like some of his fans do, but when you have guys like Collazo saying he "isn't worth it" (when that was a great match to make at the time) you know something is wrong.
I do think he is overhyped as of now, but that is because he hasn't had the opportunity to prove himself.
