    He's fine. He's only 25 or something. Wasting his career? LOL..

    He just needs to keep beating whoever's put in front of him and he'll become relevant enough for one of the top guys to take notice. Or get a mandatory shot at a title.

    It isn't rocket science.

      While Thurman is fighting Bundu's, Crawford is running strong for FOTY. Just saying...

          I guess my post was unclear. I meant to say the build-up to the fight was if Thurman won and Matthysse won, they would fight each other. They never fought each other.

          Same was done on the recent Broner & Matthysse co-event. We were promised/told that broner would fight matthysse if they both won. They probably won't fight either.

          It's BS.

            Matthysse hasn't fought at 147. No way he would move up now to fight Thurman. Broner vs Matthysse should have been made instead. Both have been in 2 cards without fighting each other.

              Anyone looking forward to Thurman getting exposed by Bundu? Or we're just lying to ourselves when we say that.

                  thurmans a bum who is known for calling out fighters he dont deserve more then he is known for beating legit names, nothing but C- level bums on his resume.

                    I mean I saw Bundu's last fight with Gavin. He's 1 inch shorter than Thurman, got short arms and can't seem to land punches without getting close. He clearly is an inside fighter. For 12 rounds he only managed to land few solid shots and the one that caught Gavin was when he's on the ropes. Can you imagine Thurman in that kind of situation?

                    This is a massive mismatch.

                      Maidana wanted a 'tuneup' after losing to Devon didn't he? Thurman would have been a good choice if he is a bum.
