Comments Thread For: Thurman Not Interested in Ortiz, Says He Never Heard of Ennis

[STREET CLEANER]

Thurman heart has not been in boxing anymore. That long layoff with the injuries and getting married exposed him to a different life that he took a liking to. He just want to get paid against a big name and is not interested in making a statement win to improve his status. He wants too much money for a name that will be questionable when he actually gets into the ring.

Keith "Once Upon a Time" Thurman needs to fight someone.

Well, we know he's not getting $3 Million for Crawford. Shawn Porter is not getting $3 Million for Crawford! So Keith and Shawn will have a rematch, and get their $3 Million, and that's fine! My problem is that the winner of Thurman vs. Porter does not deserve a title shot anymore than Ennis or Ortiz (and i'll throw Ugas in there too)! That's where these sanctioning bodies need to step up their game! Thurman doesn't want to fight Ennis, nor Ortiz, I have no problem with that! I just don't want him to beat someone like Abel Ramos, and then get another title shot, before the young warriors do!

You make some solid points.

Lets be honest...Nobody knows Ortiz or Ennis. They show promise but they're virtually unknown to the public, they don't draw, don't have belts and they are years from paying out like Crawford,Porter or Garcia.

The real question is...Why fight either guy, what's the point?

Because that’s the fight game the best fight the best to get a shot at the champion it’s why boxing is seriously hurting right now.
