    I would like to see how many wins Thurman gets against the following line up:

    Victor Ortiz - 2011
    Miguel Cotto at 154 - 2012
    Robert Guerrero - 2013
    Canelo Alvarez - 152lbs - 2013
    Marcos Maidana - 2014

    I highly doubt Thurman comes out of that resume with his 0 intact.

      You know what's funny?? 2 of the fighters on your little list already blatantly ducked him.

        Maidana sparks Thurman clean out. A green Chaves gave Thurman fits, Maidana is more resilient, composed, powerful, and crafty than Chaves. Thurman and his fans can herpiderp all they want about how Maidana ducked him but when "One Time" goes full ****** and actually gets in the ring with that beast he will finally realize his grave error of writing checks with his mouth that his actual level as a fighter can't cash. That is all.

          Ok gotchya One Time

          Just another young fighter that thinks he's invincible and will be tamed by Mayweather.
          Yeah I guess Ali ain't one of the best either.

            You know what else is funny? Both guys who are accused of ducking Thurman have better resumes than he does and have fought more difficult fighters than him.

              Accused? No, sorry, facts. And resumes don't mean (the duck did not occur).

                Maidana wanted a better name opponent. Guerrero had just come off the Floyd loss.

                Does Thurman beat those 5 opponents in a row in the same years Floyd beat them, Bush?

                  Maidana said too much power. That doesn't sound like "I want a better name".

                  And what does "coming off a Floyd loss", have to do with ducking Thurman??

                  Cotto would have been the most trouble, but I think Thurman might have gotten him so sure, why not. After all Canelo can't even make 154 anymore, so it's very plausible that the weakened 152lb version could be beaten easily. LOL at the other 3.

                    I like this kid when he fights, when he talks not so much. Talk less, fight more!

                      Thurman doesn't think he's invincible. He' just eager to prove himself against the top fighters. Win lose or draw he'll give his all.
