      I think hes better than maidana,hes faster and thats a big plus against a fighter like broner,the only reason broner stands out more is because hes always talking about himself on youtube and everywhere mentioning floyd,

        LMAO!!!!!! Thurman is the new hope for the Please Kick AB's Ass Fan club. When will some of you people ever learn. Just because a guy can punch doesn't mean he's good. AB would pick Thurman apart. Thurman is average at best from a skills standpoint. He's not a natural fighter, much like Jermain Taylor. He has to think before everything he does and does very lil on instinct. And he's not close to being fluid in the ring. Actually, he looks clumsy at times. He would have a puncher's chance against AB. But outside of that, I see AB beating this guy 8-4 9-3. And the only way Thurman would make it close is by scring KDs.

          Haymon would make Broner move back down or Thurman move up rather than having them face each other.

              Great post, as usual.

                So why does the number 1 contender need to (KO) Karass to (earn) his shot again??

                Especially since the #1 contender's been contending for the belt that the title holder shouldn't even have??
                I am not saying I agree with the politics, but you know boxing politics. If Thurman KO's Karass, the pressure will be on to see him face Broner. If he doesn't then they'll throw someone else at him.

                If you're a star, or a star in the making, it doesn't matter what belt you are currently holding unfortunately.

                  Thurman vs Canelo is the fight I want to see. I think broner is way more skilled than alvarez so I'd rather see the bigger hype job get exposed. Canelos gotta fight either lara or kirkland or thurman. After this i think broner gets Malignaggi again.

                    Can not co-sign this enough.

                    This is the truth for any weight hopping fighter!

                      So when has Adrian Broner displayed superior skill to Thurman??
