      Haymon owes kieth a bigger fight. Khan or broner or bradley. I wouldnt allow spence to cut in line. No way. Good fight 3 years from now after spence earns his
      How has Thurman not gotten a fight vs a bigger nane. He was close to fighting Maidana app 3 yrs ago, never got the fight, and there have been too many of the ilk of Julio Diaz and Bundu, and no one such as Khan, Porter, or even Berto

        floyd has fought much better fighters than thurman......so he's not saying that at all.

Your hatred for him is making you look dumb, you have to be able to hit the guy to hurt him. Keith Thurman does not have the resume to warrant a big time fight with the best in the world. Amir Khan doesn't either, had he fought Brook or Broner he would have his fight with Floyd...just like Maidana did. You don't get a title shot and the biggest payday of your career without earning it. There are a lot of idiots in this room.
            Good post man !

                Exactly !

                You obviously know your boxing.

                That is why Pac drained Cotto to 145, and then refused to rematch him at 150.

                That is exactly what you are referring to, right ?

                Right ?

                  Floyd was still scared of a one-armed Manny and now after he got beat, he's even more terrified to fight a two-armed Manny now.

                  If Floyd really is "the best in the world", then he should have enough guts fight against a guy who's in his prime, undefeated, and a natural welterweight. But he knows he's not so that's why he's not gonna take that fight.

                  And please, don't act like Maidana "earned" his shot at Floyd by beating Broner. That was a cherry pick gone wrong.

                    It's inevitable for these two to meet in the ring.

                    The real question is Thurman going to be elevated to Super WBA Champion if Floyd vacates his titles.
