Comments Thread For: Thurman on Crawford: You Want Full Acknowledgement? You Need To Take Out a Thurman or a Spence!

[imisupu]

The Legend himself B-Hop use to talk about boxers putting them silk boxers on, meaning getting to comfortable and that is what describes Keith Thurman. The dude has had literally 5 fights over the last 8 years, yes FIVE. After the Shawn Porter fight I think he just got comfortable and quit boxing but he loves to hear himself talk.

Thurman thinks he's in 2016/2017 in terms of Welterweight relevancy. He last fought February 2022. He still thinks he's one of those guys that you NEED to fight. He's lost that. He's the one that needs to beat some contenders and win a belt. He doesn't have that clout anymore.

When Thurman was a young lion he was definitely avoided, even The great Floyd Mayweather ducked One Time. But now Thurman shouldn't be making comments like this, he should be calling Crawford and his ppl and sending over some contracts to sign. He's been around long enough that he knows how to get a fight done. Nowadays, it seems like he just wants to talk about it. I would like to know One Time, tell the fans what ur actually doing to make this fight happen, other than saying u want it on the internet and in interviews?

Thurman's inactivity has drastically decreased his value. I'm tired of his delusional and complacent behavior. He should be forced to fight Ennis.

Comments like this make it seems like just don't understand boxing but that's cool, a simple rookie mistake. Boxing and the boxing game can be confusing so don't be too hard on yourself, it takes time. You know the name Ennis and that's good, that means you're on your way, don't give up.

Good luck.

How quickly things have changed? This guy was it in 2017/18 but now he is a joke. Dude talks more in third person now than he actually fights. Keef, One Time became Some Times and now No Time, is already half way out of boxing, just looking for a payday at this point. Watch him start talking about a getback fight never mind he just had a get back fight with Barrios his last go around. Haymon should just tell him to go away

When has Haymon ever told a fighter to go away ?
I totally agree but Uncle Al still lines his pocket with Keef
Don’t matter how or when , as long as there’s money to be made .............
Especially the fughin PBC

Shameless cash out, Keith plans on taking a knee in a money fight, simple as that. Spence knows it, Crawford knows it, everyone knows it...and that's why it's not happening.

Never like it when retired fighters chime in to harass inactive fighters. How about some of you fighters IDK fight

[luvgun]

I didn’t read the article. I don’t care what Thurman, Spence, or Crawford say anymore. The governing sanctions should strip their belts. They are not good for the sport of boxing.

So it's either a flute player or a stunt driver for Dud?

[Shadoww702]

When was the last time Thurman fought? I thought he was retired?
