Comments Thread For: Keith Thurman: The Welterweight Division Is Back, Cuz Without Me, Yo, It's Been Wack!

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

LAS VEGAS - Give Keith Thurman this - he channeled his inner P.T. Barnum during a press conference Wednesday afternoon. The long-sidelined Thurman seems well aware that a $75 pay-per-view main event between two former champions coming off of defeats will be a tough sell Saturday night. That's why he took moderator Ray Flores' cue and went into full promotional mode on a stage inside Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino's Michelob ULTRA Arena.

Thurman has personality and loves to talk

always liked that about the character

[PeepeePoopooMan]

Can't blame Keith for talking so much. Gotta sell this garbage. Also in a way he's right. Spencer's been struggling with his leftovers and Crawfordsville fought no one special

This guy is pure cringe whenever he talks

he tries too hard hard to sound witty or funny, and fails at both

Yep. I'm wondering how anyone besides him fits in the ring... with a head that swollen.

"Cuz Without Me, Yo, It's Been Wack!" is so corny

I don't remember Keef every being this annoying when he was still actually relevant.

You weren’t paying attention then (not meant as an insult either). The man attempts to speak beyond his education level and it shows. His misuse of big words to impress people makes him sound ignorant. I commend him for not completing High School and becoming a millionaire. That rarely ever happens. He beat the odds by betting on himself with his career so kudos to him. However, he needs to stay in his lane. Stop using big words you do not know the meaning of to impress your audience. Box, trash talk but beyond that just be quiet Keith. I already admire your achievements. I don’t need the simple minded banter.

He always spoke rubbish and never backed it up, only now he's old and been injured and out for so long it's even more difficult to think he can do anything

I hope fighters enter the library card competition, and perhaps read some books and increase their vocabulary
