    He needs a step up and fast

    He can't go calling the top boys out before he's even challenged a ex champion

    Like I said I like thurman he's a great fighter but still unproven

      Thurman will not get a fight with Floyd...Floyd can and will lose to one of these young, strong, new contenders but why would he even bother when he's on his way out the door? Thurman can actually be a great, but like a young Floyd or any dangerous, young contender, he will not force older, established, soon to retire greats in the ring just because he can probably win.. I can't think of any fighter past or present who would have to fight the newest, most dangerous threat to emerge, especially with two fights left in his career..Floyd should fight Pacman twice and quit and I honestly think it's safer to fight him than others and that includes Thurman and Khan!!

        He's just another in line to call out Floyd, but he hasn't had a big fight yet. So I don't expect him to get it without a notable win to sell the fight.

        It's probably already too late, Floyd's on his way out, and Keith isn't even on his radar..

        I like Keith though, and think he would have a good puncher's chance at least, especially with how Floyds been looking lately..

              I like seeing this fire from Thurman. He knows he's only got a small window to land a Mayweather fight. Maybe he won't get it, but don't let it be from lack of effort.

              It's not a fight he can win right now, but screw it, go for it.

                Yes I know, plenty of "top" guys want NO PART of Thurman..
                That's why I said "whatever it takes", go all out like Briggs and start stalking these guys
                Call them all out by name EVERY chance you get, follow them around everywhere and act like a maniac!

                  To get a fight with Floyd? Maybe so.

                  To get a fight with Khan/Maidana? No way! He should be able to fight those guys anytime.

                  Calling out the best names is not a bad thing. Everybody wants a piece of the top guys. Remaining silent just because some of these other guys don't have the guts to fight him isn't going to help. He's got to say something.

                    I trully believe Thurman is for real. He can improve but he is on his way to be a force to be wreckon with. I don't think he is ready for Mayweather but 2-3 more fights with some good opposition and he should be a threat for Floyd.

                      Food for thought: if he would've called out Pac, these responses wouldve been dif. lol btw he'd retire pac in the ring
