Comments Thread For: ?I want some transparency:? Keith Thurman keeps it real amid wait for injured Fundora

[Tag, You're Hit]

Y'all haters should go on Boxing Scene's youtube channel and listen to the whole interview before spouting off after reading some quotes in an article, but you won't. Probably didn't even read the whole article. Times like these I gotta agree with Breadman that boxing fans are the worst. Why the vitriol? Thurman has always been entertaining inside and outside the ring. If you can't appreciate his boxing and fights then you should probably find another sport to follow.

keith your injury set in motion the entire downfall of aussie tzu lol

he decided to fight lanky on short notice got cut & the wheels fell off the bus from there on in

lanky has now milked that title for all its worth, i think haymon is his manager, hes done a great job for him it seems

bizarrely the wbc have ortiz as an interim champ which i thought was only due if the 'real' champ could not fight & also now boots ennis is also an interim champ, this division takes little baby steps forward with all of them for some reason avoiding some russian guy on top of all the mess lol

I don't believe that the Russian guy has done enough to be on top of all the mess. He won exactly one big fight. He brings zero money and about the same amount of eyeballs. That's why he isn't getting a fight. Lubin turned him and his belt down to fight Ortiz for twice the money. Murtazalievs people are going to have to cough up some funds to get him a good fight. It's a shame that the belt alone won't do that for him. The 10lb rehydration clause doesn't help either. I'd think that most guys put on more than that after weighing in at 154. I just don't see him as being some scary monster for beating a Tszyu with PTSD and fighting in the ******est way possible. I need to see more of the Russian before I buy into the hype.
What's your email ? I'm going to get you an interim belt and email it to you. What weight class do you want ?

The guy has fought twice in the six years since he lost to an old Pacquiao. Can you please explain why he's getting a shot at the TBRB #1 in the sport's hottest division?

Thurman must understand that taking a position such as this one. Would just further go to undermine and discredit his own pulling out of fights due to injury.
