Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Thurman Will Travel To UK For Brook Shot

[Wuckoo]

Is Oscar throwing Khan under the Bus;
or does he want to save him from a Brook Beat down???

I can just imagine oscar having some sort of breakdown over Schaefer leaving. He'll turn to hopkins and be like "you'll stay, right?" Hopkins just kind of smiles then dissapeared one day. Oscar goes mad and only focuses on canelo, his cash cow. He just goes crazy making insane match ups. Starts doing am things like throwing khan to golovkin, even though people say it's nearly impossible. Throwing maidana to Stevenson. Even canelo starts worrying.

LOL Hoya has no say in Thurmans career. One time has no promoter and only goes by what Al says. Hoya talkin' out his ass again.

Feel kind of sorry for him. He just seems to be keeping up appearances now.

Make it happen.

Did anyone expect Thurman to say he wouldn't come to the UK to fight Brook? What else is he going to say?

He could have said "USA or nowhere" like Ward did when he was offered the big money fight with Froch in the UK.

Wow. These Haymon fanatics no longer follow boxing. They follow Haymon. They want Thurman vs Salsa. Hehe... Boxing is ****ed.

This is nothing but conjecture used to create a buzz. There is no upside in Brook taking a high risk fight this soon. The most lucrative fight to make would be against Khan.

Freakin ward man. I like his style but it's stuff like that which bothers me. Guys like Crawford and thurman are willing to go out the us but ward's like "nope Oakland is good for me."

Agreed. I'd rather a massive fight with khan for brook next.

The numbers generated in a Brook/Khan fight will no doubt lead to a Mayweather fight in 2015 for the winner. This is why I don't believe the Thurman hype. He plays spoiler for whomever gives him the chance. Too much prospective money to lose.
