Comments Thread For: Ellerbe Feels Thurman Not Tested Enough For Mayweather

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Leonard Ellerbe, CEO for Mayweather Promotions, says unbeaten puncher Keith Thurman (22-0, 20KOs) has yet to beat the type of opposition to secure him a fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr. (45-0, 26KOs). Both fighters work with adviser Al Haymon, but that isn't enough to get Mayweather. Thurman has already been demanding a fight with Mayweather.

Ellerbe says the young knockout artist must test himself against a higher tier of opponent. Thurman is back on April 26th, when he faces former champion Julio Diaz at the StubHub Center in Carson, California.

This is the fight i want to see, i dont know if thurman will win, but atleast he is the top of the list to fight mayweather. Who else other than pac or bradley?

[The Problem Child]

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 second thought.

i.e he's too much of a threat. Bring on Amir Khan!

Golden Boy need to wheel out Berto for Thurman's test.

[ИATAS]

Remember when he stepped to Rosado?




****ing *** thinks he's tough ****

[Pigeons]

I wish Floyd had more than 4 fights left in him. I want to see him fight Thurman, Khan, Broner, Garcia, Matthysse, Porter, Lara.

Hes right. Thurman not ready but he will be elite in his time

[WarMaidana]

ellerbe is right. Thruman is the real deal, the dude has skills and power. He has a couple of decent names on his resume but not enough to warrrant a floyd fight. Unfortunately for him it will be hard to secure any big names. Hopefully collazo wins and they make a fight between the two
