    Whats with Thurmans inactivity?

    Been 8 months since Pac fight.
    Before that he had like 1-2 fights in 3 years.

    He woulda been top dawg at welter but he literally sat his prime out. Wish we coulda seen a prime Keith hut he wont ever be like he was circa 2015. He was good enough to beat the top 5 welters in close fights making him the best if he beat more top guys then Porter and Garcia but he ****ed it all up.

      He got married and she took all his man juice, that's why he lost to Packy.

        Yeah prime Keith was potentially the best in the division. Would have gave him a good chance to beat Spence and Crawford.

          Losing to 40 year old Pacquiao clears people's visions up, if that makes any sense.

          As far as what I understand, the only up-side fighter Thurman could still face is Spence (who is also with Haymon). Considering he just lost, I would expect maybe Thurman vs Adrien Broner or Mikey Garcia.

            Injuries and marriage took his best years. Sad but that's the reality of the sport, you can't be one foot in one foot out in this game

              Pacquiao retired him.

              Prime Thurman, outclassed by 40 year old PAC.

                Sad fall off. We should have seen him against Spence.

                  You're acting like this is not normal in the PBC camp.
                  It's been a culture. Take a serious fight once in a blue moon,
                  then easy fights and long vacations in between.

                  Mikey Garcia decided not to get bitten by the horrible inactivity bug
                  and joined Hearn saying, "I was tired of waiting, waiting, waiting..."

                    He was injured during his last fight and is taking time to recover. Must be a pretty serious injury too since its taking almost a year.
