thurman not being avoided, typical haymon resume

Thurman is convincing in his interviews but Haymon fears something if he ain't letting him step up yet. Maybe he got some china tucked underneath that goatee. something is off. if he is as good as he thinks he is then they should be pushing him hard right now. cotto on the come up had judah when judah still had a decent amount left in the tank and an undefeated quintana. you could argue chavez was thurmans quintana but you cant say thurman has a real solid name on his resume. thurmans entire 2014 campaign was a joke.

Anyone who gives Quackenson more flack than Quillin or Santa Cruz is dead wrong. Quackenson is a punk but Quillin and Santa Cruz are the biggest clowns going right now. I hate saying that as a Santa Cruz fan but it's true. Thurman did try to make the Alexander fight happen and was ignored. Both Maidana and Guerrero have both said no. It's not like he's calling guys out and then not willing to fight them, he's legitimately being told no. That being said, if it happens again he needs to speak up about Haymon. If he doesn't, then I'll start to think he is happy calling people out and fighting lesser fighters. i'm starting to think that already. a step up fight should have come 2 fights ago

I sure don't hear nobody calling him out! If he is a bum/protected/hype, it should be an easy win for anybody but nobody is calling his name!

lol you think Guerrero was offered more to fight Kamegai than Thurman? 'I'm a pride fighter, not a prize fighter' - Keith Thurman. Thurman wants to fight the best, you can see it in his eyes and hear it in his voice when he speaks. I think he will fight Maidana next year, maybe on the Floyd vs Khan undercard You mean Floyd vs Cotto under card.

didnt thurman ko chavez the guy who just had a draw with bradley?

Yeah its easy to say you want to fight this guy and that guy when you have Al Haymon to hide behind. Peter Quillin, Leo Santa Cruz, Keith Thurman, Adonis Stevenson, its no coincidence. That said at least Stevenson who seems to get the most flack has fought pretty decent competition. Anyone who gives Quackenson more flack than Quillin or Santa Cruz is dead wrong.

Floyd vs PAC undercard you mean floyd vs danny garcia undercard you mean

Fixed it for ya LMAO...so true. On a side note....I have Wilson starting in fantasy.WTF?????????????????????

Floyd vs PAC undercard you mean :lol1::lol1: Oh Jas, trying to keep hope alive huh?

He's being brought up properly. When he's ready Haymon and the networks will put the money behind him. How much was Diaz' purse against him? Like 90,000 or something like that. Your not going to get top contenders/champions in the ring for 90k. He's getting the kind of opponent they are paying for. When your Champ there's no thing as being brought up properly your suppose to defend your title against top ranked fighter not stiffs

Yeah its easy to say you want to fight this guy and that guy when you have Al Haymon to hide behind. Peter Quillin, Leo Santa Cruz, Keith Thurman, Adonis Stevenson, its no coincidence. You may include Broner. It would seem Haymon is giving them some sort of misguided security. They're too quick to drop big names knowing that Haymon won't let them fight those names, anyway. You'll never see them actually push for those fights. You'd wonder who they're addressing when they drop names. Who do they actually expect to make those fights for them? It's certainly not Ellerbe.

Thurman still has a long way to go before he can take over the sport after Floyd and Manny retire.

Floyd vs PAC undercard you mean Ha, no chance man

guerrero was offered more money to fight some japanese guy. haymon lowballs anyone with a pulse. thurman wants to get paid. he won't take low money to fight a big name like he was going to for maidana to get exposure for the first time. he is already getting exposure. he is satisfied with that and will not fight anyone riskier than maybe a devon alexander in 2015. mark my words lol you think Guerrero was offered more to fight Kamegai than Thurman?

He clearly is avoided. Maidana pulled out of a fight with him, Guerrero didn't sign a contract to fight him when he was offered one, Porter's dad has openly said he doesn't what a Thurman fight yet. So Thurman is indeed avoided, it's not an opinion. I think he will fight Maidana sometime next year anyway. guerrero was offered more money to fight some japanese guy. haymon lowballs anyone with a pulse. thurman wants to get paid. he won't take low money to fight a big name like he was going to for maidana to get exposure for the first time. he is already getting exposure. he is satisfied with that and will not fight anyone riskier than maybe a devon alexander in 2015. mark my words

All the Haymon guys say they will fight whoever Al tells them to fight....so Al should tell one of them to fight Thurman. It's not like showtime won't put up big money for it.
