thurman should challenge Kamegi if he wants guerrero. Being as how its quite obvious he wants absolutely nothing to do with Alexander.
I said earlier Thurman was still taking "step up" fights. Well, i lie. He is actuoally taking step down fights. Chaves to diaz??? GTFO thurman is looking for a payday and soon as he equals a payday for these other guys. They will fight him.
"Its called prize fighting you dummy"
Porter is a top welterweight, it didn't happen because his people didn't want it. So they ducked Thurman.
He should fight Kamegai? So people like you can keep questioning his competition level? Kamegai is a D level fighter and would do nothing for his career.
Again, Guerrero chose to fight Kamegai instead of Thurman, that's a clear duck. Thurman is a far better fighter and would be a far better win for the resume and would get him more money.
He is fighting C level guys because as you proven above, people are choosing to fight weaker opposition instead of fighting Thurman. It's quite obvious you dislike the guy as you have nothing logical and reasonable to say.

Fight kamegai, why? because he has a bit of hype behind him for a possible FOTY candidate. What better way to corner Guerrero into a fight.
See in the fight game sometimes you have to choose a route and take the appropriate steps to force a fight. Thurman hasn't done that yet.

Thurman is still a risk, so he is not a "comeback fight" either(maidana). Guerrero has money to make and if the offer was right I'm sure he would have fought him.

And are you telling me Guerrero was offered more money to fight Kamegai than he was to fight Thurman?
Fighters are ducking him, that's not an opinion.

Ducking him is definitely an opinion. Not truth.
