    So lets just fight a guy because forum geeks want you to....
    First of all Im not a mf forum geek idiot. The guy is ranked 7th in Ring Magazine in the division. And 5th by ESPN. I like how you run away from simple questions because you make no sense. So a guy that's top 7 in the division according to multiple sources bring nothing to the table? Good logic. You're a simple minded idiot that's perfect logic. There's no point in arguing with a dummy.

      The hard-hitting and exciting Thurman made the third defense of his interim belt on Dec. 13 against 40-year-old Leonard Bundu of Italy. It was a mismatch on paper and even worse in the ring as Thurman dropped Bundu in the opening round and won by shutout (120-107) on all three scorecards in as one-sided a fight as could be. Afterward, Thurman called out former titlist Marco Maidana. Now that would be a great fight.
      Next: TBA

      This is what a boxing expert thinks about Thurman. So Im sure your opinion holds more weight. Im done.

        The fact is, if he were some bum like some of you people think then other fighters would be RUSHING to fight him.

        Getting the scalp of the guy that is 7th in your division, undefeated with 24 wins and 21 KOs, would greatly increase your standing and your value.

        There is definitely value in beating Thurman, you just don't see it for some (probably biased) reason.

          Oh really, top 7 in the division? My bad. I didn't realise he had cracked the TOP SEVEN. That is really worth a lot...

            Where did I say he was a bum? I like Thurman as a fighter and I think he speaks well. He has potential to be a star but he is far from a star right now and he isn't going to become one with performances like the last one.

            @ Top 7.

              I'd say being an idiot is one of the top rated reasons. Lol. Funny note. ESPN boxing analyst Dan Raphiel has Thurman ranked higher than Maidana, Kahn, and Brook without him even fighting a big name in the division. He's only behind Marquez, Bradley, Pacquiao, and Mayweather. Nah no reason to fight him. Nobody knows about him.

                Fat Dan is just like any of us. Hardcore boxing fans.

                None of the wider public know who Keith Thurman is. They'll think you're talking about a country singer.

                How can you not understand this distinction?

                  I would attempt to make some valid points, but what would be the point? Im done.

                    That's because you have no idea what you're talking about. Your head is up your own arse. You think beating the "Number 7" welterweight and impressing Fat Dan actually means a ***

                    Trust me, if/when Keith Thurman becomes a star who main events his own shows, he's not going to be giving whoever the "number 7 welterweight" is a shot either.

                      Khan would be ducking Thurman not to fight for a title that may pressure Mayweather more.

                      As for Thurman not being a mainstream name; Who was Alexander to the Main Stream, who was Collazo to the Main Stream, Who was Diaz to the Main Stream, who was Molina to the Main Stream and who was Garcia to the Main Stream (outside of beating a faded Morales)? I'll tell you nobody's.
