Average age of Thurman's last five opponents including Collazo is 34 years old

You don't get what I'm saying. Canelo was also fed older guys when they were building and hyping him. Now Thurman's name is out there, it's up to him/his people to step up the competition.

Canelo was gaining experience, a guy with little amateur experience.Thurman had an extensive amateur career their isn't any excuse for his resume,his opposition level should be close to that of Danny Garcia's or Shawn Porter's he's been a pro since like 2006.

One of Canelo's best wins is still Miguel Cotto's brother

You're reaching,but one of Thurman's best wins is JSK.

At least he is fighting experienced old men?

I don't think the age or average age of his opponents bothers me. Is attitude does, when you claim you would fight anyone people would call you out on it. The easiest thing to do or say in boxing when you are coming up is to say "I would fight anyone"

What does that even mean?All old fighters are experienced to some degree.The one guy he fought still close to his physical prime broke his nose,and hasn't beat anyone of note.He's fighting guys past their expiration date and has the nerve to complain
when a guy similar to his age calls him out.

If may never mentioned this and the fight got made people would say he's fighting a guy thats still green and complain!

You're right he would continue fighting guys with hip replacements,because most boxing fans can't see past the hype....

I don't buy that line anymore because as soon as a fighter is called on their bluff,you start seeing stipulations,monetary circumstances etc.
