    Cool, I was impressed with Bundu in the one performance of his I've seen vs Gavin.

    Beating Bundu will be as impressive if not more so than any other victory on Thurman's resume. The only people hating on this fight don't know who Bundu is. Should be good.

    Winner should get a name opponent next.

      Somebody on this site said that Bundu was ranked in the top 5 in both the WBA and WBC.

        Yeah it looks like I underrated Bundu a bit. Thought Welter was deep enough not to have Bundu rated in the top 15 but looks like he's right in there. WBA/WBC ratings are a bit misleading though, yes he's top 5 by their standards but no he shouldn't be rated higher than guys like Porter, Guerrero, Chaves or guys not rated at all like Bradley, Alexander? Any one of those fights tops Bundu.

            Floyd is the WBA Champ, Thurman is ranked #1, Khan is #2 and Maidana is #3. Floyd could vacate his title and let them fight for it on his undercard.
            hell id like to see thurman fight khan,broner,maidana,matyssee, porter i mean take ur pick the guy has a lot of fighters to pick from if he really wants to. hell hes big enough to fight fighters like canelo if he wanted to. I still think guerrero maidana is fighter of year type stuff tho

              Some people don't want to believe it and even got the nerve to say that it's Thurman who's ducking everybody but the truth is so far, it's the other guys who turned down a fight with him and not the other way around. There's really no other way to look at it.

              We're all tired of seeing Thurman fight nobodies, especially me, as I'm sick of hearing people saying "he aint fought nobody" every time he gets brought up. People also seem to overlook the fact that Thurman did better against these same nobodies than guys like Khan, Maidana, and Porter did.
