    Just a few thoughts:

    To the people saying who is Thurman going to fight... who is he fighting now exactly? I promise you he would get an HBO fight with someone to make him look good then he could easy get in there with Ruslan, Bradley, Rios, Alvarado... I'd love to see Thurman in any of those fights to be honest, they'd be great.

    How can people be Floyd fans saying it's all about the money (but avoid Manny's payday) while at the same time say "It's not about the money it's about loyalty to Haymon/Rocnation has never promoted before." So you're saying Al Haymon is a better businessman than Jay-Z now or that Manny is in the right because he is being loyal to Arum and not "all about the money" fighting for Haymon... so which one is it? It isn't like Al has promoted before either, he's an advisor remember, Oscar/Richard did all the promoting and they are gone.

    People still think Haymon is some savoir to boxing? It has been reported by ESPN that in every Haymon contract a fighter cannot make any decisions unless it's approved by Al. Thurman could have been offered $100 million and Al still would have said no and there isn't a damn thing Thurman could do about it. The people who defend him are the type of people you can sell oregano as weed and baby powder as coke and they'll think you gave them top shelf because you said so. Tools, all of them.

        That kind of money usually goes with fighting big name fighters, which I thought Thurman always wanted. I'm confused with this guy.

          Seems all you kids see is $$ signs and think its a great offer. I dont know the details but Thurman doesnt seem to like it snd he doesnt strike me as an idiot and spoke like he truly felt this wasnt the right path for him.

          And as for the oregeno and baby poweder thing you all seem like the kind that say i got a great deal so i took it and in the end found out you got had.

          And yea Roc Nation hasnt doen anything

                First person to respond reads my post but didn't hear a damn thing I was saying. I even put that Thurman has NO SAY because he is signed to Haymon, Al has all the control. This is proven fact, not rumor. Anyone signed to Haymon can't do what they want in their career so your entire first point is moot because it's wrong and I already acknowledged it but your lack of reading ability forced me to repeat it, hopefully you got it this time.

                I have no clue what your second sentence is even supposed to mean. Are you too dense to realize I bought the real weed and coke, then turned around and sold the fake **** to keep my money AND the real stuff all to myself? It's called a hustle, and that's exactly what Haymon is doing to the fighters. The simple fact that you can't see how or why proves your ignorance, especially taking your second point into account.

                And, you're right. RocNation hasn't done a damn thing, they're only a agent company for guys in the NFL and MLB like Dez Bryant, Victor Cruz, CC Sabathia and Robinson Cano` Yeah, who the **** are these guys I mean Al Haymon is working with All Stars like... Peter Quillon and Keith Thurman, who the **** are the other guys right?

                  your so stuck on that Haymon has last say that you arent even considereing that maybe he wasnt even needed cause Thurman himself didnt like the deal. Al is irrelevant in this. Thurman made the choice but to you this is a lie. Youkids just see the surface and think thats all there is.

                  And yes roc nation has big athelets signed but this isnt badeball or football. In boxing roc nation has no one and nothing

                    Actually, I say if he keeps winning the way he's doing, he probably will get the Mayweather fight (likely in September). Floyd doesn't have many options left.

                    I don't see how that's "changing his tune". It's been shown many times that having an "0" does help a boxer's career. At this point in Thurman's career, even though he's not afraid to let go of his "0", he also can't afford to lose it to a nobody either if he wants his career to grow.
