    Good thing he's not fighting Thurman because then he still wouldn't have fought a real puncher

      He has legit been saying he want's to fight those guys "next" for going on 2 years now. It means nothing what Thurman says until Haymon actually wants those fights to happen. Don't hold your breath people

        Well Thurman is certainly a bigger puncher than club fighter Carson Jones whom according to Eddie Hearn had Brook out on his feet.

          loool

          Well puncher or not I think Thurman/Brook would be a great matchup, and probably more enjoyable a watch than Broner/Porter, but I've been wrong before...

            Just on the eye test I see Spence with more potential than any other welterweight - he looks the biz. I hope they move him on fast so we can find out. If spence is as good as he looks I see him as dominating 147 by 2018 not Porter, Thurman, Brook or Khan.

              He is letting it known that he isn't scared of any of them and at the same time that he is frustrated with the matchmaking of Al Haymon.

                These guys just love dropping each others' names. But they won't fight. They keep disappointing fans and it's been going on for years now. It's frustrating.

                  Khan would shatter Thurmans body.

                    Thurman like wilder got big mouths without backing it up. why are these two windbags given so much attention. if Thurman gets hit once by a decent puncher he will run entire fight. wilder gets hit and KO'd

                      "I'm going to have a conversation with Al Haymon and really sit down to get a fight that's worthwhile," Thurman said.

                      Doesn't this guy have a cell phone? He's all just been talk without the walk. Talk to the media after talking to your uncle Al, Mr One Time. Fans don't need these useless crap.

                      We'll wait for the results of his "conversation" with Mr. Al.
