    He already looks shot. This is what happens when you take extended layoffs. If he doesn't opt for multiple tune-ups, he's going to get ****ed up badly by Spence or Bud.

      The Porter fight was close, but the VAST majority of people had Thurman winning, check the post-fight polls. The Garcia fight was competitive but not close. He doesn't owe either one of them anything, he beat them fair and square, so had they got the decision, I'm sure normal, neutral boxing fans would've had something to say.

      The constant downplaying is funny tho
      naw. those fights were razor close. much closer than Floyd vs Maidana and Floyd gave Marcos his rematch. before he vacated he was being mandated to fight BOTH Danny and Porter. none of those wins were "clear". the Porter fight was back n forth exchanges for 12 rounds nobody would've protested a draw.

        What does how Floyd did things have to do with anything? Plenty of great fights in the past haven't had rematches. With that said, I'm sure Thurman will fight the winner at some stage, so it's not a big deal anyway.

          Then jump straight in with Spence.
          I'm thinking we'll see either Thurman vs Garcia-Porter winner or Spence vs the winner before we see Thurman vs Spence.

            I'm not interested in Garcia or Porter rematch to be honest.

            Spence or Crawford are the fight I want to see for Keith then go 154.

              i never said it was a big deal. the debate was who has a better resume at 147 between Keith and Spence. and i think Spence wins over Brook and Peterson put him above Thurman since Keith barely sc****d by Danny and Porter. that was it.

                  Keith Thurman is a lazy champ and bad for boxing... He ducked Spence and I will hold a grudge for that until he redeems himself somehow.

                    I don't mind if has a tune up. He has been hurt and hasn't fought since like 1956.



                    Why is he wearing socks though lol

                      I had it 8-4 and feel the same way. Keith is clearly the better fighter
