    Keith "Double Standards" Thurman

    So after accusing Amir Khan and Floyd Mayweather of cherry picking, he's fought Mayweather's leftovers in Guerrero and now his fighting the guy Khan dropped three times and outclassed last year. How does that work? Keith one time has an average resume, even though he has potential he needs to simmer down cause he's unproven as hell. "No one wants to fight me"... http://www.boxingscene.com/alexander...ro-next--79224

    Devon Alexander was more than happy to fight him.

    Watch out next year, someone like Matthysse will just move up and make him sleep.

    Edit: some of the contradictions - http://********/bPTVMA6Ukh0

    For the record I like Thurman's attitude and it's great for boxing that he wants to fight all the big names however, calling Mayweather and Khan cherry pickers and then fighting the same guys they "cherry picked" doesnt look good on you. They both have infinitely better resumes right now and actions speak louder than words and right now, Thurman is showing me that he says one thing and his career does the other. Khan would get slaughtered for doing what Thurman is doing and he is rightfully getting stick for the Algieri fight but that doesn't mean Thurman gets a pass for this monkey business. This thread is to purely point out the nonsense he is saying and not taking away from his good boxing ability and potential.

    It's a marketing gimmick. Cry about being ducked then fight a bum because you are so "feared".

      Keith always been a fraud, his best win is him running scared the championship rounds against Mayweather easiest foe and people believe he deserves a mayweather shot lmfao.

      Keith will continue to call out fighters saying this and that they are ducking him and then use that as an excuse to fight nothing but sub-par opponents.

Then he turns down Alexander after Devon agreed to fight him.

                its a lousy fight but the notion of him being a hypocrite/ducker is unsubstantiated

                  Defending what? The Collazo fight? Of course I'm not defending it...

                  I'm just saying every fight says one thing and does another.

                    I like Thurman. He's from my hometown. He literally trains 30 mins away from my house. But I wont be defending this **** much longer.

                    *EDIT* Im not even defending it. I meant to say I wont be standing by it.
