Comments Thread For: Thurman: Mayweather Said 'Never' When He Offered Me Spence

[Thaman2x]

Runtime Thurman...please just stfu.

you've had the opportunity to fight great opposition not named Floyd Mayweather, and up until now, you haven't done that. Robert Guerrero was probably your biggest victory. What does that say about your career stats?

Porter by UD.

thurman using mayweather's name to promote his porter fight when mayweather is already part of the promotion

Only Floyd-worshipers think people are using Floyd's name to promote a fight, but this is the same idiot who said Floyd wasn't using Pacquiao's name to promote his fights when Floyd was dropping Pac's name left and right...

Double-standard having hypocrite and a fa66ot

[Boxing Logic]

Floyd doesn't fight anyone who is the biggest threat to him ever... he's always taken options B,C, and D.

Instead of Thurman he went right to Berto...

Talking about fighting Danny Garcia but not Thurman...

Floyd will always take the easier fight when given the top two biggest threats.

Floyd wasted his 49th fight on a total bum for no reason.

Ding ding we have a winner. Amir Khan won the online poll but Floyd fought slower Maidana twice instead. Now Floyd's talking Danny Garcia instead of Keith. Floyd will always avoid the guys with speed and power. His reputation is built on defensive mastery, his brand is built off it, and he can only keep the trick going by fighting slow fighters. If he ever found a Khan and got hit all night long, he knows he would lose his reputation. Thurman has speed and especially power that Floyd wants no part of. He will fight slow powerful fighters because he knows if they are too slow to hit him, the power won't matter. But someone like Thurman with power who can also deliver it with speed? Floyd has never and will never fight anyone like that in their primes. He always has been and always will be someone who cherry picks fights. A few Floydmos still follow the fraud but everyone else got the message after he ducked Pacquiao for 6 years over "steroids" but then he was the one who used an illegal IV when he finally fought him and hired Memo Heredia who has bragged about creating custom steroids. Biggest hypocrite and fraud in the history of boxing, and there have been some of those in boxing before, but he's #1, TBE fraud.

Stop it bro first off Floyd called out a lot of guys and fought a lot of who was available and wanted the fight first Floyd ain't cherry picking especially if he is the super champion so move on and get off that one because you can't blame Floyd for the other fighters issues Maidana was more of threat than Khan I felt Khan lost to Maidana anyways Khan is a straight bum too much fiberglass in that chin he needs retire 😂

Not so Floyd fought top guys and I know for a fact that he face the winner of this fight Floyd easily beats both Thurman cause he can go to body and stay up stairs with the straight right lead check hook with Porter stay up stairs with that straight right lead so those fights would just as easy as Garcia but Garcia will fight Berto beat him with ease then if Floyd ain't fight yet Garcia is a possibility but I feel Floyd will face the winner of the Thurman vs Porter

Khan has done nothing as a WW to even be in the ring with Floyd and also has an easy chin to hit, early KO even for the feather fisted Floyd. Also, I think DG got a better chance of beating Floyd than KT. KT is too slow, like Canelo. Floyd will make him miss and tire so quick, Thurman will start looking puzzled in the late rounds and will lose on score cards.

Keith definitely learned how to sell a fight! He's been doing a lot of talking! I like Thurman but honestly his career stalled after the Diego Chaves fight in 2013. I don't know if it was his fault or Haymon's fault, but he never fought the right people at the right time. Even this fight with Porter should've happened long ago, before Brook was able to take Porter's belt. Now he's fighting Porter when he should be fighting Garcia or Brook. Hopefully the winner of this fight gets Garcia next.

Keith sounds real hurt that he didn't get that check! Instead of wishing for the fight, he should've been putting himself in a position so that people demand the fight, like Manny did! In the end, you can't even put Thurman and Mayweather in the same sentence:

"Floyd Mayweather defeated more ranked welterweight contenders than Thomas Hearns (rankings by Ring/TBRB). He defeated more top five contenders than almost anyone outside the top ten, aside from the likes of Jackie Fields – but Fields also lost to a handful of welterweights. Mayweather was unbeaten.

Mayweather defeated more welterweight lineal champions than Barney Ross. Working by the scorecards of the judges he was, for the most part, in non-competitive fights at the weight. He made a past-prime Manny Pacquiao, his #1 contender at the weight, look like a journeyman. He defeated more #1 ranked fighters (champions or top rated contenders) than all but the most storied of fighters. He boxed only three unranked men at the weight, two of whom were soft touches (Sharmba Mitchell, his first fight at the weight, and Andre Berto) and Ricky Hatton, the light-welterweight champion of the world and universally recognized pound-for-pounder, who he knocked out."

Boo hoo. Carve your legacy and earn your bread the old fashioned way.

Umm he did exactly what a young guy is supposed to do. He put himself into the number one position and was there for a long time. He talked mad **** about Floyd trying to get him in the ring. Thurman did everything right, he just was'nt worth Floyd's time.
