He ain’t got but a few fights left and with his ailments…can’t say I expect another run of any kind at this point so if he’s selling his scalp…I mean…he’s got two great career wins and we all know how folks turn that into some crazy hof resume around here

I like Keith and all. He's a great fighter but since he got that beatdown by Manny he's been on some gud ****. Keith, you either retire or fight the up-and-comers for equal, if not, lower money. You still have star power enough to be on equal footing with Ortiz and Boots but you got no say with Crawford or Spence at this stage.

Of course he asked for $10 million! He sees himself on the same level with Crawford! Well the WBA ordered Ortiz Jr. vs. Stanionis, so I don't know who Boots could fight in Top 5? That is unless Stanionis fights Boots anyway?

Truman you expect a huge payday good luck with that

Well, Thurman ain't ******.

He's saying, 'if you want me to take on Ennis, whom I can't beat, pay me exorbitantly, and he gets the big name on his record.'

Another deluded clown over rating himself .Thurman fizzled out like a cracker.Even light hitting Joe Lopez from the lower divines nearly took him out. It's no wonder the big fights don't get made .It's pure greed of both promoter and fighter.Who really stick it to the fans with silly priced ppt's and mostly over priced tickets , most of which are sold directly to agencies ...sticking the fans that little bit more.

Another delusional fv ck. He will be a name in someone's resume soon. He has nothing to offer, no title, no undefeated record, no aura, no winning streak, nothing.

He is lucky if he gets a shot at Spence.

I could image him and Crawford trying to line up a fight. They will ask 25 million a piece.

10 mill is steep, remind me of when Floyd was pretty boy and all the big dawgs at the time wanted more money to face him. Unfortunately Ennis is paying for Thurmans name, high risk low reward. Only way Thurman fights him is for a belt

[Sctrojan]

Well hopefully Spence is a man of his word/principles and never gives Thurman his shot like he never gave Spence.

And when did Ortiz turn down Avanesyan?
