    Soto-Karass to Mayweather. Too soon man.


    Very talented. But also very green. His resume at 25 years old is pretty non existent. He still a prospect in my eyes. Hes not ready yet. Thats just plain and basic common sense,
    I don't think you even know what's going on in here. I suggested he fight Khan for Floyd. You know, the guy Floyd just had a phone convo with.

      Then when the fight is announced we'll have you and the rest of the "i hate floyd" brigade state how beating Khan doesn't mean anything and that Thurman is a cherry pick and is tailor made for Floyd. Circle of life lol

        All he needs is a notable win and he's in the sweepstakes.

        I expect the fight to happen next year.

          Stop being so dense.
          Sure if it makes you feel better that it happened on threads and the same would be done with this fight. You seem to think that Thurman is somehow a threat at this moment but if it fits your agenda then go right ahead and push on through

          Tell me what Champion has Thurman beat? Paper trinket or real belt?

          And this is coming from a big Thurman fan

            Did you even read what you posted? Get out of your feelings and just use common ass sense man.

            Thurman a threat? To Floyd? Thats sig worthy.
            See, Ortiz, Guerrero, potentially Berto, Maidana just beat up a guy that almost had him stopped, and Broner. The guy that ducked Thurman.

            Thurman beat down a guy in Chaves that would whoop the **** out of Broner, Ortiz, Berto, possibly Guerrero, Khan, 12-0'd a game Zaveck that was on his way to stopping Berto before the cut. Routed Quintana at 154, and KOd Soto Karass.

            Khan would be the cherry on top, and that would be more than enough to get a Floyd fight.

              Thurman will probably get the Porter-Paulie winner, Thurman isn't a big enough name to get Floyd (and I don't think he is good enough) he has the right style to be a big name though, would like to see him fight Brook, Guerrero, Alexander or even Abregu get a few more names on his resume.

              So far he has only Zaveck an old Quintana and Soto Karass.

                SO OBVIOUS.

                Every Flowmo in here used the "he's not ready" BS.
                Bungalows people are saying hes not ready. Because wait for it....

                Hes not.

                There is no conspiracy. I give Thurman what maybe 2 rounds? Tops? Maybe not even that.

                I dont think you realize the talent gap from karass to Mayweather.

                  Dude, I guaruntee you the Pac brigade/boxing fans would cream their paints for this match up. Let the vast minority say whatever they want.

                  EVERYONE in here knows this fight would be SICK. Whether Floyd routes him in the actual fight or not, the boxing community would be jizzing themselves.

                    Kell Brook is fighting the winner of that fight it's already been ordered by the IBF

                      They were on the phone because Khan will line Floyds pockets. How long you been following the sport?

                      I saw it. Khan vs Thurman winner gets Floyd. Yeah and makes literally no sense.
