Thurman by KO

The WBA is very busy lately, however they are mandating 2 fights that no one wants to see: Andrade vs. Culcay and Thurman vs. Avanesyan! Both fights are tailor made for Spike TV!

[ИATAS]

why does the WBA always enforce the crappy fights (this and now Andrade vs Cuckholdy) but when it comes to real fights they disappear? pfffft

[MarshallDrum]

Well if Danny would stop pulling a Ward-style retirement, maybe we can get another good fight for Thurman.

F#ck alphabet groups. I understand this fight probably has to happen as a sacrifice to alphabet group corruption &/or incompetence, but I'm secretly rooting for Thurman to toss this belt in the garbage.

So they enforce two ****ty fights but still have yet to enforce Jacobs-GGG? *** are they doing

WTF is this crap?

Smh, this fcking sport is so pointless.

Sad part is, is I don't think Thurman as the kind of coward most of haymons guys are.

I think he wants real competition, real fights, I think he's one of the few on haymons stable that wants to leave a legacy.

And yet here we are.....

David Avanesyan....

So who is Danny Garcia fighting? Don't even mention Pacquiao. Everyone knows Arum is hallucinating.

Consolidating their title situations, tbh.

Still, the beauty of the move that they've made, with everyone involving seemingly on good business terms, You can book Thurman-Avanesyan and Andrade-Culcay as a doubleheader on Showtime (with BoxNation buying the UK TV rights) before the end of the year.
