    IMO Keith Thurman is the future... The Heir!!!

    I really believe Thurman will be unstoppable from welter till the day he goes middleweight.. MAYWEATHER HAS BEEN THE PRESENT. No doubt, but I have been thinking of how mayweather should go out. EVERyone knows his contract ends after his 49th fight. So Khan who is big and can help carry the gate in the U.K. could most possibly be the next opponent...
    Leaving Pacman for last... or so you think.... I believe he will want that 50th win, to leave no doubt.... to break Marciano's record!!! That being said, who is the 3rd fighter to face Mayweather????
    I dont see many fighters at 140, 147, 154 giving Thurman real problems. Maybe for the next 4 to 5 years. Pacman is almost done, Danny is too small for him, Cotto is too old and worn. Thurman has a clear road of dominance in his future unless he "ortiz's" it. Now Keith should be getting those big card exposure fights. He is the Future. He is the heir!!!
    So IF MAYWEATHER WANTED, he could go out with a ****. Fighting the next dominator and heir to his own throne. How G.O.A.T. can you be... going out 50-0 and with that last fight beat the young Prince before he goes on to rule the division, and possibly the pound for pound rankings of the next 5 to 6 years.

    I like Thurman, but he's kind of irrelevant right now tbh.

    When you look at what a guy like tim Bradley was doing to get to where he got, Thurman isn't even close to accomplishing anything like that at this point.

      I also truly believe Thurman is the real deal in years to come. I believe a guy like him should not be with Al Haymon. He should be on HBO getting great exposure like GGG and Kovalev.

            He's only irrelevant because no one really wants to fight him and Al Haymon and Showtime not forcing these top WW they have to step up to the plate.

                  C'mon, Thurmond has beaten absolutely nobody. There are about 5-10 welterweights who would be his toughest test yet.

                    Thurman is the interim WBA 147 pound Champ.
                    Mayweather is the Super Champ. It would make a great fight. Just saying
