The irony and the audacity of a fighter who is known for pulling out fights due to injury to cast aspersions upon an another fighter who is doing the same. Come on Keith! Get it together! You are bigger than this!

No, Keith AKA "i talk about myself at the 3rd person" isn't bigger than this. He his full of himself, and full of paradoxes.

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

Keith Thurman should be one to talk. He has dissappointed many fighters over the latter course of his career with injury pull outs before fights. Thurman has to remember at this point in his career that he is the B side and Fundora is the A side. Fundora is the champion and he calls the shots. That's the way it is. He should keep his mouth shut because if he pisses off Fundora's camp then there will be no fight down the line. He should just take an interim fight right now and quiet down the noise. Hopefully the Fundora fight will be rescheduled down the line.

Wouldn't be surprised if Keef got injured himself making these comments given his history.

Keith is a victim of the sport. I know him since early teens in St Pete, just a beast of a puncher, no fear, dominant force taught by the late Ben Getty. Very strong, huge puncher but never really was taught boxing skills. Supposedly KOed Berto in sparring when he was still amateur and Berto was a name pro. Sparred Tarver and Winky. The rumor was he's even older than his given age, some kind of birth cert trick for amateur advantage. Quick rise as pro, was ready to beat Mayweather but Haymon protected Floyd from the KO loss and kept Keith apart. Keith never got the big fights when he was primetime. Berto got that Floyd shot as a hired patsy then ran off with the money. Keith would have KOed Floyd I have no doubt, no way Floyd could hold off Keith's brutal onslaughts. Keith then over-ripened on the vine and started to decline. Haymon wasted him and misused him as a pawn but he would have slayed Floyd like Mayorga slayed Forrest. Now Keith is just a patsy waiting for the last payday. And even getting scroowed out of that after all the scroowings Haymon gave him.

im sure its a genuine injury, no way lanky is passing up this fight, harder fights are in the wings

That's rich Keith Thurman criticizing another fighter for pulling out due to injury. Dude might be the king of this tactic.
