Comments Thread For: Thurman Chose Barrios Because He Had 'Best Record'; Ramos Was Also In Running

I understand the science of marketing, but in order to market something, it has to be at least somewhat believable. Nobody believes this nonsense he’s spewing.

In order to market something, it has to be within it's sell by date.

The whole "best resume" argument goes out the window when the top challenge was avoided. You can't really be top dog by pretending the guy who can beat you doesn't exist.

For me, best resume decides top dog. For me, what actually goes on in the ring trumps all of the he said/she said.

There was a round robin going on that left out the guy who was most likely to win. You really think Thurman ever had a chance to beat Crawford? Isn't it funny to you that PBC would work with Crawford at 140, but when he moved to 147 they wouldn't? It was never in their best interest at 147, because he was likely to beat all of their guys.
