Thurman to sign with Eddie Hearn (Rumor)

"One Time" returns Aug 4 at Barclay Center. Opponent TBA. Welterweight world titleholder Keith Thurman, who has been beset by injuries that caused him to give up one of his belts because he could not make a due mandatory defense in a timely fashion, could be back in action on Aug. 4 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, a source with knowledge of the discussions told ESPN on Thursday. Thurman has been idle since unifying belts by split decision against Danny Garcia in March 2017 in a heavily anticipated fight. But after the bout Thurman (28-0, 22 KOs), 29, of Clearwater, Florida, had right elbow surgery to remove bone spurs and calcium deposits. He was preparing to return to action this spring, but then suffered a deep bruise on his left hand during a sparring session that forced a planned May 19 return to be canceled. http://www.espn.com/espn/now?nowId=21-40021510-4

He got a brand new spanking wife from one of those countries they have strange religions about peace. I doubt he still wants to fight. He will probably hang up his gloves and go live in the mountains meditating and sleeping on a mat. :spankme: Nah i believe he might use his brand new wife for sparring partner if he signs with Hearn.

Says hes training in Japan, where Hearn just left today OK, again hopefully he does make it back but a Lack of Promotion is not a issue for Thurman it is injuries that is a bigger issue for him right now

Wasn't it rumored about a month ago that he might go to Top Rank or something like that as well. But According to Michael Woods he is traveling right now probably not even thinking about Boxing. Regardless, hopefully he comes back 100% soon because it makes the division better with him. Says hes training in Japan, where Hearn just left today

So Thurman might be not fighting for Hearn instead of not fighting for Haymon.

Hey, I heard today from the grapevine that maybe Keith Thurman was signing with Hearn. What about it, any truth to that? I talked to someone who knows of Thurman, and they said he’s been traveling, has been having a fine time in Japan, with his newly betrothed, and he’s been doing some pre-training there, and they weren’t informed of any new promotional arrangement he’s made. Wasn't it rumored about a month ago that he might go to Top Rank or something like that as well. But According to Michael Woods he is traveling right now probably not even thinking about Boxing. Regardless, hopefully he comes back 100% soon because it makes the division better with him.

Are you kidding? Oscar has 19 year old Ryan Garcia, potenially the next Superstar of American Boxing...which the likes of Thurman, Broner, Spence or Jacobs will never be. He also Co-promotes 21 year old Jaime Munguia, who looks like he will become a major American Star too. Canelo is still only 27 years old so two years from now, Golden Boy could have the three biggest Super Stars in American Boxing! Well you could say potentially Yeleussinov and Kelly are the best welterweight prospects, so he has those. Potentially don't mean **** though, didn't 5 million watch Thurmans fight? Isnt that pretty good? Munguia aint Golden Boy, they have an option on him for 1 fight, and Zanfer wanna make more of an impact in the US, so he wont be signing. Canelo got about 2 tip toe fights left in him til hes in a world of pain

Canelo is still only 27 years old so two years from now, Golden Boy could have the three biggest Super Stars in American Boxing! i know who garcia and munguia are....but...garcia is 19 and probably still some time away from a meaningful fight .....garcia could go either way.....garcia could be a superstar in 4-5 years....at which point canelo might be coming down to earth a bit add in that we arent sure where canelo goes from here....does he take a hit from the bad pub and golovkin fight getting canceled? if he fights o'sullivan will there be backlash? if he fights saunders or charlo and gets beat is he still a star?...still alot of questions oscars stable is probably, of the big 3 companies, overall in the worst shape(i know haymon isnt a promoter but i consider his stable an entity, so were talking TR, haymom and oscar)....he has a what if/maybe in garcia....and we arent sure what canelo is gonna be

Its possible, he was talked about as being Thurmans return fight. May view it now as being a bit too risky for a comeback fight. Actually Josesito Lopez name came up when discussing Thurman comeback opponent. Not bad name to fight now too. Fake news. Just have to wait and see bruh..

Fake news.

i agree in that i think that bob arum needs to be gone...i think once he is no longer on earth things might be different...i think todd wants to do some different things but really cant while bob is still kicking and has his hate filled agenda....but then again ive seen todd make some comments too that seem to fall in line with the way bob has/does business what haymon is doing is fine....i dont see much wrong with what he has been doing oscar is a different story...but he doesnt have much other than canelo Are you kidding?

The old guard of US boxing need to be taken out. Hearn and his willing to work with any promoter, and Kalle Sauerland with the WBSS are the future. Time for the dinosaurs to do one. i agree in that i think that bob arum needs to be gone...i think once he is no longer on earth things might be different...i think todd wants to do some different things but really cant while bob is still kicking and has his hate filled agenda....but then again ive seen todd make some comments too that seem to fall in line with the way bob has/does business what haymon is doing is fine....i dont see much wrong with what he has been doing oscar is a different story...but he doesnt have much other than canelo

Our promoter :lol1: Is he like our Queen? He's a businessman. Show me a successful businessman that doesn't want to expand his business, so not really sure what the point you were trying to make there. the way you guys defend his actions regarding wilder/aj id def say hes your queen my point is why would a successful businesman want to dip into a market that you guys claim isnt successful in the first place? if established promoters cant make superstars over here in america does hearn think hes special and different? you guys claim wilder cant sell and make money...you guys claim alot of guys arent known....does hearn think hes magical? literally any top US promoter could have taken joshua and done the same thing with him...its not rocket science im sure you will try to tell me hearn is special and is doing special things....the fans would have been behind AJ if a 10 year old pakistani kid was his promoter..... guys like ward and wilder cant sell and dont make any real money...the charlos nobody knows them...nobody really knows thurman.....yet here is hearn wanting a piece of all of them....its logic that is counter to the garbage the UK fans here spew on a weekly basis sometimes smart businessmen who are successful realize when its a smart move to stay out/away from something ......or could it be that the US is a pretty decent boxing market and you guys are all wrong?!?!

im really not sure... Me neither. That's why I used to question some of Arum's reported Pac purses.

we shall see....i wouldnt be shocked if hearn started landing some american talent...but i wouldnt really bet on it...i just dont see it its weird though..these uk guys always bash the americans and how they arent as popular...yet their promoter wants to come over here and establish himself here its not as easy for hearn here as it is where hes at....boxing has a cult following over in his neck of the woods...its tougher to do well over here in the states...its not a big sport here...although it still does well enough im sure alot of these guys like davis, the charlos etc. are going to be willing to listen to an offer...doesnt mean they are gonna go with him though interestingly i still dont know if weve seen a purse figure for the last daniel jacobs fight for danny..id be curious to know what he got Our promoter :lol1: Is he like our Queen? He's a businessman. Show me a successful businessman that doesn't want to expand his business, so not really sure what the point you were trying to make there.

Isn't it a mandatory to disclose fighters' purses to the state commission, or is that a voluntary thing? im really not sure...

Same here. At this point, Chavez Jr doesn't even have any potential to speak of. Gervonta was rumored as saying he was open to listen to Hearn's offer. I highly doubt he'd get Americans of that caliber at this early stage. Good luck to Hearn. we shall see....i wouldnt be shocked if hearn started landing some american talent...but i wouldnt really bet on it...i just dont see it its weird though..these uk guys always bash the americans and how they arent as popular...yet their promoter wants to come over here and establish himself here its not as easy for hearn here as it is where hes at....boxing has a cult following over in his neck of the woods...its tougher to do well over here in the states...its not a big sport here...although it still does well enough im sure alot of these guys like davis, the charlos etc. are going to be willing to listen to an offer...doesnt mean they are gonna go with him though interestingly i still dont know if weve seen a purse figure for the last daniel jacobs fight for danny..id be curious to know what he got
