Comments Thread For: Keith Thurman Aims To Make a Statement on Saturday

[TheFlashKnows]

Yup, Keith, you are making a big statement... and that statement is "I want to fight cab drivers. That's why I'm fighting guys like Bundu!"

Or maybe it was Daddy Haymon...

He's good, but Alexander would definitely give him problems. I just get the idea a slick boxer tactician is going to be his nemesis. He does have some boxing ability to go with his power, but without someone right in front of him trading... I just think he'll hit a wall.

This is what I worry about as well...fck it!

WAR ONE TIME!!!!

What statement is he trying to make? That he can beat any journeyman that his advisor and former promoter put him in the ring with?

Every quality fighter at 140 and 147 has fought at least one tough A-list opponent, except Keith Thurman, who continues to fight journeyman.

I smell a rat here, and, in spite of what some of the idiots on this site believe, this is not because the quality opponents are afraid of Thurman.

Thurman beating a 40 year old Bundu won't do anything for me. Will it suppose to? I'll probably consider it if this guy got the Marquez rep, Hopkins or Martinez, or even Cotto.

But what can we do? Everyone is ducking him, so his fans say.

I'm a fan and I don't say that. Is it Haymon? Is this guy Darth Vader or something? I just can't be arsed to pay much attention to that chit. Not my yob.

I don't think Thurman is ready for the likes of the top tier guys yet anyway. Not in a great hurry either. He's young. Let him learn some more. I wanna' seehim beat up like a Amir Khan or Provodnikov or Garcia or Mathysse or Maidana or something first.

These guys would all be sparring partners is Tito and Oscar were still around. Same with that Turd Mayweather who Oscar beat at 40%

I hope he does make a statement this Saturday, I hope they start matching him up with the top guys at 147 now.

How can that happen when everyone is avoiding him, according to his fans? Tell me something I don't know.

Looking forward to seeing Keith in action again... though, I have been slightly disappointed. I was a big fan at the beginning but I have slowly been disgusted with his retreating / boxing as of late. Take off the One Time name if you are going to run like a beach seriously. Keep it if you will always go forward and look for the KO. Saturday will be a make or break situation for me as a Thurman supporter.

bundu is like 40 years old and has like 11 KOs or something, thurman won't run from that guy.

I would like to see him matched up with Brook,Maidana, or even Porter. I know Maidana passed because he wanted bigger fights Ghost just ducked him.
