        I don't know if the OP took the comment in context ... He didn't deny Thurman, he just stated that he's an up & coming good fighter who has yet to be tested.

        I believe that is an accurate statement!!!


        Let's do a time-machine roll-back to NSB where everyone was talking Matthysse as the big boogie-man killer. And when he stepped up to a higher level of competition (Garcia) all of a sudden he's not what was expected and according to the posts that followed -- He's been exposed!!!

        Keith Thurman is in the same boat ... He's crushing C-level competition as he should, but the question still remains: Can he maintain that pattern through the elite levels. And as yet, that question cannot be answered. Sure we can speculate all we want, just like what happened with Matthysse -- but no one really knows until it happens.

          Thurman will never get a Floyd bout. Why? Not because he isn't known, it's because the bigger names refuse to get in the ring with him. Until he is a full champion and not a mandatory he won't be able to make a name for himself.

            They're already scared.

            I would bet my house and Larry's life that either Golovkin or Thurman would beat Mayweather if the fights were to happen. Without a doubt.

              Still upset Porter didn't fight him next, that would have made for the perfect fight.

                    So its official then?

                    Thurman is the new boogie man?

                    Cause you know Canelo was rated higher, had more experience, and fought against better comp then Thurman, when he fought Floyd.

                    After Floyd whupped him everyone was alot like that ******ed caller saying "Canelo was a bbbbbbbbaaaaaabbbbbbyyyy"...
