Comments Thread For: Keith Thurman Explains Why He Vacated The WBC World Title

[AdonisCreed]

That wasn't much of a explanation from Keef!!! Lol... He pretty much stated the obvious!!

[nycsmooth]

it doesn't matter when he comes back at ww or @ 154, Spence will be waiting for him...

[Raggamuffin]

Good man. Nobody can claim that he’s holding his title hostage. Hopefully the others will fight each other.

In 2 years, if Thurman keeps winning, i await those who question him being hurt and decide that he "took a break while the division heated up".

Now this means Spence will fight the Danny/Porter winner and then Thurman will get the winner of that fight after his comeback tune up.

. I think he will fight anybody but he looking out for himself 250% lol

I can already envisage it...

If he will be back in the summer he shouldn't have vacated

... but is he back in this summer?...

I hate porter and i dislike Danny. I don’t know who to root for in this fight. Danny has to be the favorite.

I don't hate any of them, but I dislike Danny... and yes, Danny should be the "favorite"...

Porter gonna maul Garcia. Thurman should retire, he doesn't want to fight anymore.

I don't know: Danny used to be a killer at mid range (and Porter has to come forward)...

I know most people on this site don't understand money, Keith has not made near enough to sail off into the sunset.

And how much money do you need to "sail off into the sunset" exactly? Lol Without knowing his current quality of life, there's no way to answer that question.

Keith Thurman has likely made NFL first round draft pick money in his career. I count at least $7 million over the last three/four years. That's more than 95% (probably closer to 99%) of professional boxers. Not to mention his potentially promising career as a commentator.

Btw, I'm a midtown NYC lawyer working in big law (private equity M&A). I think I understand money pretty well. I make my fair share. Lol

When Porter vs Danny happens the winner and I repeat the winner will stay well away from Spence. That I can promise you. I feel sorry for Spence. If porter wins he fights Spence maybe end of 2019. If Danny wins it’s 2020 . Just watch Amir Khan now he will now fancy his chances and both Porter and Garcia will welcome him with open arms because it means more reward for less risk even though Khan is capable of beating them but if you compare the level of risk in facing Spence and the reward it’s a no brainier .
