In 2015 is it time for Thurman to hit the big time?

Thurman is a very good welterweight but it's hard to tell how good because I don't think he has fought a legit top 10 welterweight the way Khan did in fighting 10th ranked Alexander. It might not be his fault if the better welterweights refuse to fight him. Khan thinks he is now this special elite fighter who only Pacquiao and Mayweather are worthy of fighting. But Khan isn't as highly regarded as he thinks and is usually rated between 4th and 7th best welterweight in the world. Khan needs a backup win to his impressive win over the 10 best welterweight in the world. Khan needs a win over a Bradley or a Thurman but he won't do that. Thurman against Bradley would be hard to make because Bradley is with Top Rank. That leaves Porter, Brook, Guerrero and Maidana as top 10 opponents he could fight if Guerrero is still top 10. I hope he fights one of them soon. Thurman should leave 154 alone because that's not his weight and it's a strong weight class. For sure he would get his ass kicked by Lara.Comment

his upside/ceiling need to be re calibrated.
