Comments Thread For: Thurman To Khan: I'm Sometimes? See Me One Time!

[wlliam]

So Khan, and Garcia definitely deserve Thurman, two fighters who just came onto the welter scene?

Especially Garcia, one welter win against a washed up opponent.

But Spence doesn't deserve? Ridiculous.

If it's about 'deserve' and who is the best, why not call out Brook? Isn't Brook by far the most obvious opponent going by Thurman's standard?

It's really OBVIOUS, Thurman just wants to fight the slightly easier known names at welter, and duck the welters closer to his own size, who are Brook and Spence.

Spence needs to work his way up and get in position. Why should Thurman face Spence? Bcuz Floyd said?

Imo i think Spence is a bust, hes getn a little exposure too soon

[Carpe Diem]

No Amir fan by any stretch of the imagination but let's be honest he'd outbox the living hell out of Keith. Get Keith past 6 rounds and then pressure him. If Khan can manage to not go into "dykhead" mode during the first six rounds he dominates Thurman.

I don't know if you notice yet, but Khan always has trouble against righties. All of his best performances were against southpaws, Judah, Alexander, Collazo. Thurman would catch him in between exchanges and i doubt Khan can beat him, let alone decisively outbox him. Khan is a talented boxer, but he's not as good as some of his fans think he is.

this a good fight

Every fight in the welterweight division by Khan has been against a big name.

In fact 'sometime' has been desperate to fight khans leftovers.

Collazo and Diaz were literally 10yrs removed as titlists, Alexander 2yrs removed, Algieri is a 140lber!!
Ok lets go with CURRENT ratings, Brook, Bradley, Thurman, Porter, Sadam Ali,, Danny Garcia, Chavez, Solomon are all Top 10 guys RIGHT NOW...

Sure , but it wasnt him running his mouth was it ? it was Khan calling him sometime and stabing him in the interview , so if you are running your mouth you better be ready to pay the bills , this isnt about brook (which i agree thurman is abit scared of) , its about Khan calling him out and Thurman responding in spades.....

[bluzi]

Cool story. I just called out GGG.

"Golovkin where you at?"

Just because you run your mouth at a presser it doesn't mean jack.

Why doesn't he actually try and fight a name like Kell Brook by getting his passport ready and get his team on the phone to Eddie Hearn.

Also it's not for the champions and big names you mention to do the chasing. They have what Keith wants, he's the one who has to actually step up and stop running his mouth.

Note that Brook never mentions Keith name as well , i think they realise its a 50/50 fight and rather abuse their size to take on the new guys coming up in weight.

[PunchyPotorff]

I'd rather see Thurman vs Danny Garcia. And as crazy as it sounds, I doubt he gets past Garcia OR Khan. Both of those 2 are murderous body punchers, and we saw recently how Collazo nearly stopped the guy with body blows. But if he catches either just right it's obviously lights out.

These scrubs will end up fighting someone irrelevant instead, rather than each other. This fight should've happened in spring.

Again, note that brook is a world champion and doesn't need anything Keith has.

Thurmon needs to do the chasing.

I got Khan by stoppage Make it happen.
