    Thurman needs a good win to get his name in the hat..Guerrero or Maidana is a good start..
    Maidana won't fight Thurman, right now he's saying it's Mayweather or retirement. Obviously the Broner rematch would be a bigger payday too.

    The guys I see who are likely to be willing to fight Thurman are Provo, Bradley, Rios, Alvarado, Alexander and Pacquiao.

          Good interview. Keith's always speaking his mind.

          I have a feeling he might be fighting Matthysse next as the main event of the Porter-Brook card. Matthysse has talked about moving up to 147 recently.

            he is still at the challenger level, he needs a step up but you cant really fault him just yet.

                Absolutely. If it gets made, shoot me a PM or post in the betting forum. I know I'm gonna create a thread for it...Thurman's lunging style would let Bradley have a field day countering him. He wouldn't KO him but he'd mess his face up over the course of 12.

                  Provo and Rios would be action-packed FOTY but Pac would be a nightmare for him. That fight would end up like the Hatton fight after a few rounds.

                    lol this mathed guy thinks Thurman is some club fighter...

                    Thurman could outbox and out**** Bradley. Thurman's boxing ability is vastly underrated.

                      Floyd loves money and his health more than the sport (and I can't really fault him for that) but he is great for boxing and if you don't think so you you are an idiot. Now I love Thurman, one of my favorites, but I think Floyd would completely school him. Thurman vs Maidana is the fight I want to see.
