        Wasn't Thurman just offered mad money by JayZ? I am baffled as to why he would turn down the opportunity to be the crown ***el of a promotional company. I guess he's tied to Haymon and probably couldn't accept if he wanted to, but man is his career being torpedoed.

        Haymon is keeping him away from his other client's for a reason, he gets the last say on who they fight. Thurman needs to be telling him to Fuc off and beating up on the Watson's after fights not thanking Al.

            Thurman has to strike when the iron is hot. He has to step up in competition in 2015. He may be 26 but in the welterweight division speed is an important aspect and waiting around won't do him any favors. A fight against Maidana or Danny Garcia in 2015 would be great.

              yeah, 26 is getting on a bit for a guy of his talents, problem is he doesnt seem fussed and is pretty happy with haymon tuggin him around

                Don't know why Thurman is always putting himself in a lose-lose situation. Bundu batters him in a competitive match and people will say, "See he's a hypejob." If he wins on a landslide, same thing, "See this guy beat another Karass/Chavez/Diaz type fighter." When will it end? Alexander challenged him long before the Khan fight, he just kept on paying lip service saying he wanted him too, but didn't do anything to push it. He was offered Bundu, boom, he took it at the drop of a hat.

                  Everyone is starting to see what being a Hymen fighter is all about. Supreme shelf time, no say in your career at all, no way out, no excuses.

                    16 days left. Let's see how Thurman does with Bundu.
                    Any prediction in this fight?

                      Thurman is the wba mandatory, have respect for him. He's a high risk low reward fighter, if floyd don't give him a shot/retires. Then Thurman should fight someone decent for the belt, thurman should try increase his wbo rank try become mando there.
