Comments Thread For: Thurman: I'm Ready For Pacquiao, Khan, Porter, Maidana

[mjgaz6]

I'm glad to read that Keith 'Run Time" Thurman's stock is finally going down. He's a dancing counter puncher with power, but not as much as you think for someone with his KO%. Frankly, he's a boring fighter who has been protected, which naturally leads to questions about his durability as evidenced - once again - last night. Personally, I'd like to see him fight someone fast enough to keep up with his running. Kahn or the pillow fisted Chris Algeri would be fine. Or even Lara for an epic night of running. If he happens to fight another shop worn, tomato can in his mid 30's that is too slow to keep up with him I'm not even going to bother watching - I'm tired of this crap.

Hmm I think guys like Porter & Maidana beat Thurman, and we all saw what Brook did to Porter.

Say what you want but this thurman would get killed by khan

Khan will only fight feather fisted fighters from here he's learnt his lesson more than once and even if he wanted to the camp know it would probably be the last dip in to his pockets.

What is with you on these Khan's threads? Did he F.U.K your mom, dad, girlfriend? :*******:

Yea wtf? Dont know about killed, but I am not at all convinced that Thurman would beat Khan.

There are tonnes of unanswered questions at welter.

Thurman vs Bradley
Brook vs Thurman
Thurman vs Porter
Khan vs Thurman
Bradley vs Brook
Porter vs Bradley
Bradley vs Khan
Brook vs Khan
Porter vs Khan

Just fight when you get the chance. No more dancing and prancing around trying to disguise siisy fighting as "defensive mastery" like Mayweather. It's killing boxing. Just fight!!!!! Watch the UFC from last night. That's what boxing is being compared to and there is more action in the introductions than in the last 10 Mayweather fights. JUST FIGHT!!! The era of celebrating cowardice and non committal fighting as defensive mastery is over. It's just a gimmick to avoid an actual fight. Be the new breed! An "0" means nothing if you never put it on the line( like Mayweather)

Uh, no..... you go watch it.

Have fun !

Thurman is ready for Pacquiao, Khan, Maidana, or Porter, but not Floyd. The only fighters I believe could beat Floyd are GGG and Lara @ 154. I don't see any WWs that can beat Floyd. After Thurman's performance, I believe (I hate to admit it) Khan is the best option. Khan has fought more Top 10 opponents, has a bigger following, and will be a bigger draw. Thurman should target Porter or Maidana next.

Yep, but that is pretty obvious really, no welter can beat Mayweather.

And good point about Khan, he could get that fight unfortunately.

I also agree with you about Lara/Golovkin at 154 being the only challenge.

Because of limited options and nothing at welter, if you had asked me a couple of days ago who Mayweather was going to select for September, I would have said Cotto for the lineal MW title..... but now that we hear Canelo/Cotto is nearly finalised, Mayweather could end up selecting Khan.

I prefer, in order.....
Lara at 154 (the most challenging)
Cotto at 154 (the best fight, but fcuk the MW title, Cotto should drop it)
Golovkin at 154
Khan at 147

I think Cotto is the best payday for Mayweather, but if Cotto/Canelo is in the works, then it looks like Mayweather will likely select Khan.

I see Khan or Porter in Thurman's future.

Thurman got a big gift with Collazo getting cut up. HUGE gift. Collazo without the cuts would've gotten some more of those killer liver bombs in, and everyone's darling prospect would've been toast.

And now that the cat's outta the bag that the guy is soft downstairs, you can bet EVERY fighter will zero in on that and drop him. Maidana would murder him. Khan, Pac and Algieri would pick him apart and flat out obliterate him.

The guy is now an accident waiting to happen. The only thing he accomplished last night was getting fights easier FNO. But with each of them FNO comes the liver bombs. Oh well. Cash out and become a trainer bub. It's your only out.
