    60-40 chance khan beats thurman

      Thurman has lost the hunger and desire.

      Wonder if the inevitability of facing Spence plays a role...

        Mayweather only fought top 5 guys. Do your homework.

          Not comparing them by resume of course, don't jump to conclusion. And you do YOUR homework, Keith fought Shawn Porter and Danny Garcia back to back.

            I don't really mind a fighter having a tune up after a long lay off. It kind of fits in with what he said the other week; 2 fights then Spence in 2019.

            It's not ideal for the fans, but maybe a real low key affair this time out, then someone like Vargas?

                Kell Brook is a better fighter than anyone Thurman has beat.

                  That’s the point..Nobody at 147 is trying to see Spence..Thurman ain’t trying to fight him Garcia ain’t trying to fight him Porter ain’t trying to fight him..so what were his options?

                    hes not on top and
                    not very near the top. he is in a
                    bull**** weight
                    class fighting once a year. what a
                    waste
                    of talent.
