Shots Fired: Thurman "Maidana is Ducking Me"

[Chief2ndzOnly!]

It's a possibility. I just don't think Haymon will match Thurman and Broner this early in their careers.

True indeed. If I was Al I know I wouldn't want to quite yet. I think Keith's immediate title future at WW will hinge on Devon/Amir. And that too will be a good match IMO.

Maidana already ducked him once cause he was unknown. Lets see what excuse he has next.

Why is everybody talkin like its a foregone conclusion that Broner is giving up the strap without a defense? Did I miss something here?

Oh man. I would pay front row to see Thurman chase Khan around the ring all night. LOL

Off topic, but does BamBam become a player at 147 win, lose, or draw vs. Manny?

LMAO. Devon Alexander fought Lucas ****ing Matthysse coming off of a loss.

Maidana had a name ******.

Try to read and understand my post again.

he came from a loss and was for a couple of months with his new trainer, what you expect? Probably the journeyman on your sig is asking for a tune up now, who knows?

A tune up to fight a prospect in Thurman? Thats makes no sense at all. Thurman was the tune up

Name another top 147 lb'er with a name that would have fought Thurman at that time?

Devon had a bigger name than Maidana. He was headlining fights on HBO and was supposed to be the next big superstar in the sport. He was attracting 8,000-10,000 fans to his fights. And only hardcore fans knew who Matthysse was when Devon fought him.


Maidana ducked Thurman. Plain and simple.

[Russian Crushin]

No one in Maidanas situation would have fought Thurman. Coming off a loss, or being at the top of the division. Thurman was barely contender status and completely unknown.

What situation is that? He already agreed to fight him then pulled out like 3 weeks before hand. Thurman was a prospect, and Madiana and his team gave the worst ducking excuse ever, that they needed a tune up first. A tune up to fight a prospect, i 've heard it all
