Comments Thread For: Thurman Wants Title Shot In Summer 2022: 'It's Ugas, Spence or Crawford'

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Keith Thurman is raring to get back to the top of the welterweight mountain. Once the creme de la creme of boxing's so-called glamor division, the former titleholder has seen his stock drop ever since his points loss to Manny Pacquiao in 2019 and his subsequent inactivity. He is poised, however, to rectify the latter when he returns to the ring Feb. 5 against Mario Barrios at the Michelob Ultra Arena in Las Vegas on Fox Pay-Per-View. It will be "One Time's" first fight in more than two-and-a-half years.

Thurman has done absolutely nothing to deserve a shot but since he's asking for a a(sssss) kicking, I hope he gets it at the lowest wage possible and then disappears for good!

Who gives a f what he wants?

This guy. lol, talking in the third person like he's a legend. How tf do you lay out for 2 years and then take on a dude that was KO'd by a LW in HIS LAST FIGHT and now you're going to get a title shot THIS SUMMER???? EL OH EL

This guy is delusional, dude got stomped by a washed up Pacquiao. Back of the line part-time.

Third Person Thurman needs to check his sense of entitlement for starters . . . .

That Pacquiao fight was a great, close, competitive fight. It was a SD loss and PacMan was NOT washed up then. He looked excellent. VERY different than the PacMan who fought Ugas.

And while you think Keith is delusional he'll probably get a shot. I think he should have another fight after Barrios (assuming he comes out with the W) before looking to fight for a belt. Not having another fight after Lopez and before Pacquiao after that previous long layoff is what caused him to lose to PacMan imo. Of course, the fight wasn't going to be there if he didn't grab it when he did.

Keith Thurman needs to leave the third-person talk to Nash. Some people just can't pull it off like the Boxingscene Hall of famer. Keith Thurman out. Sorry! Nash out.

How is he supposed to get to #1 contender status next year, let alone get a title fight?
2 years out of boxing, coming off a loss, and scheduled to fight wee Mario Barrios.

Lol why the hate? He's coming off a loss and to a great fighter. Who tf is he suppose to fight? I hope he gets Crawford after Barrios and then spencer-ugas
