Comments Thread For: Five Fights We Want and Why We Wont See Any of Them This Year

[NEETzsche]

If Thurman vs Spence doesn't happen this year I'll be very disappointed in Thurman and Haymon. There should be nothing getting in the way of that one

if jerkoff wants a world title let him fight nomaschenko for it

[bronx7]

You can dream but reality rules Thurman legit surgery rehab long layoff tuneup April then mandatory Porter years over no chance for Spence til 19

[bronx7]

Worry about guys like Madonna Stevenson no mandatory 5 years they let him cherry pick keep belt hostage against low risk opponents

I don't think Wilder is more hesitant than Joshua or Hearn. Wilder just has a stiff head, believes he is much more important than he actually is so he has no qualms with simply talking to a microphone than going to the UK to make a spalsh thereby generating more interest for the fight.

Joshua is the hesitant one, he doesn't want it for now and with what he says, seems like he wants the fight to be worth more money first. That may be true but I also think he don't want that Wilder hard work if he fights him now.

It's not Canelo holding out the division, it's GGG who has mandatories to handle, even Saunders (who keeps calling him out but it's all crickets) to finally go after and get that last belt but acts like Canelo is the only fighter in the middleweight division. Canelo has no belts, he is just another fighter in MW like the rest.

Fair counter - points, no argument here.

Let me translate for non-Americans:

AJ/Wilder won't happen because Wilder spent the whole of 2017 ducking the entire division and is now trying to hype his next fight by mentioning AJ as many times as possible, but never really wanting to seriously negotiate a fight. Wilder has taken a leaf from Mayweather's book.

Spence/Thurman won't happen because Haymon does not know how to run a boxing promotion.

TC/Garcia has never been a reality because these guys are almost always a division apart. The added buffer of different promoters and TV deals killed this fight a while back.

Loma/Davis won't happen because both Davis and his promoter Mayweather, are scared. PLus Davis can't even stay in shape enough to make weight.

Rung/Inoue has every chance of happening as neither man is a coward but there are two issues. Rung must first get through Estrada and a possible rematch, while Inoue is growing in physical stature and bantam will be his new home pretty soon. Rung is a big, strong super fly so he might move up to bantam. Can see this happening late 2018 or in 2019.

Did you read that, Kuyukut?

Keith Idec says that Inoue's "low level of opposition is undeniable." He must be racist against Asians! Quick, go report him to the mods and try to get him banned!

this site only knows one race, and that's the human race.
