    It’s because Runtime is a douche nozzle

      The year is 2013 and Toprank launches the last of its low definition Pay per Views, in a freak mishap Kieth Thurman is blown out of his trajectory, his life support frozen and sends Kieth 10 years into the future......

        Sounds like Keith’s old lady is nagging him to get off his ass and go get a job. He’s back to talking again.

          He fought Danny Garcia in a unification on regular TV for 2M. Surely he would've gotten at least that for a fight with Spence, that would've been ppv, and another unification.

          Now this dude is whining because he literally has nothing anybody wants, except for up and coming fighters like Boots Ennis, who'd love to add Keith's name to their resume.

            He's not wrong in the sense that the fight wasn't as big Spence won the IBF belt. At the time, Keith was the guy at 147 and fighting Errol wouldn't bring in as much money as Porter or Garcia.

            Spence was where Boots is at now. So when people say Thurman ducked Spence, I ask those people is Spence ducking Boots? The answer is obviously no for the latter but then you have to be consistent and say no for the former as well *shrug*

              I use it for everyone, its never about one guy its always about the matchup nobody pays to see one guy but if they perceive it to be a good matchup they buy.

                  Nah , I think Keef does this chit to himself
                  I’ve said it for many years , Keef got one foot out the door
                  Seems to me he just barking all over the place to get one big fat last pay lol
                  He just trying to ruffle chit up without earning it
                  Then he’ll be back to the retreat , meditating and doing all kinds flowery things hippie style

                    For those who don't know, Thurman is flat out lying!!!

                    This fight was personally endorsed by Floyd Mayweather.

                    Mayweather offered to drop one of his titles and ask Al to let Spence and Thurman fight for it, with the winner getting a gautanteed shot at Floyd himself.

                    Thurman said Hell No, Spence said Hell Yes, and that is why it did not happen.

                    Floyd recognized it would be a classic and would be even better for him to fight the winner of that clash because it would make more money for him that way.

                    Thurman didn't want the smoke though.

                    Don't let this clown fool you.

                      The sad thing is that there video footage as well where Floyd offered $10 Million to fight Spence plus he's always injured and lies knowing that after Collazo or even before talking Maidana he has been washed and lies
