Keith Thurman Back At Work!

[John Locke]

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.

I haven't mentioned anything about either guy's resume. The point I was making was how you're trying to play off Thurman's wins over two elite prime fighters by exaggerating how close the fights were.

Spence is also an elite fighter and his win over Kell Brook is A*, if you think he's the best welterweight in the world that's cool, but the constant salt dropping on the #1 RANKED welterweight isn't a good look

the number 1 welterweight

They both want him to prove it. Keith is the one holding it up.

What's holding up them fighting each other? How about demanding they fight each other, that whole 147 field has had a year plus for each fighter to distinguish themselves. Garcia held up porter, won't fight spence, won't fight Crawford. Crawford and Spence some how care about building a super fight when neither fighters has the audience to make a super fight. But yeah let's blame the guy who had surgery and needed rehab for holding up a division.

Please stop...seriously. We are now calling fighters Elite with one notable scalp on their resume. Holy ***** we are now watering down the title of ELITE in boxing. Spence is a great talent but to be considered ELITE you need to show that and you need to have the resume to even be mentioned or crowned ELITE and sorry to break this to you...he has none of that yet. He could've fought Garcia, Porter, and Crawford in the past 18 months and hasn't. Those guys are just as guilty because they haven't fought each other either.

Okay, sorry veteran.

Hope he can stay healthy for awhile. Honestly do not think he is ducking or ever has ducked anyone, he's just injury prone.

[Dean_Razorback]

is he even fighting this year?

I was just about to say the exact same thing...
Hopefully we get a Keef fight in Nov. Or Dec.

Looking a bit heavy but nothing crazy. 147 is shook!

Hopefully he doesn't come out and say he injured another body part after training. This is a guy who postponed a Porter fight forever, gets injured after being in an accident. Takes a year off to recover and then fights Danny and gets injured again. Takes another year off and gets injured while training. Can we really trust this guy not to get injured again before a fight. I guarantee that after he fights, he going to sit out with another injury. Thurman is exactly what this new generation of athletes are, SOFT and ENTITLED.

Does it really even matter? He gonna end up fighting some tomato can. Showtime shouldn't even waste their money putting his fight on, PBC should put it or Bounce of FS1
