Comments Thread For: Thurman: I'm Ready For Pacquiao, Khan, Porter, Maidana

[Luilun]

Has Thurman ever made a title defense against a legit A level fighter ? I recall the days of the 70's or 80's when Champ actually fought contenders. when they didn't and fought a has been or b or c level fighter they will call it a non title bout does anyone remember that ?

I don't see the problem. If he's not meant to be big time then he'll never be big time. If he is then he will be. Fighting and beating another b level really does nothing to prove you're elite. Just let him face another "A" level fighter. That's the only way to know anything. Internet people complaining he isnt ready doesnt help the cause either. Let him sink or swim. It's actually simple.

He won't fight Manny or Bradley because he is with Haymon. I think all the guys he named would beat him except maybe khan. Khan can out box him but his weak chin is only a matter of time till Thurman cracks it. Funny the one name Thurman didn't mention is Brook. Whoever he faces next needs to be a top welterweight no more garbage fights it's time to either sink or swim.

If Thurman can be ready for Floyd in September, he can be ready for Brook in September. He should pursue Brook for that title! If Thurman could go to the UK (Brook did beat Porter in the U.S.) and take the IBF title, he becomes the best WW not named Mayweather!

I think Brook and Thurman would be a ok fight. Both are hype jobs. Any of the other fighters would beat Thurman. Even Algieri!

He got hit with a perfectly place liver shot..

Right underneath the rib, you idiots don't understand that it's a sure KO punch. For Thurman to fight through that actually impressed me.. also the cut was caused by punches. the ref is incompetent for ruling clash of heads.

Haymon doesn't think he's even ready for Maidana. Khan would KO him with a vicious body shot. Haymon will give him Algieri next. Algieri would give him a good fight.

You're a ****, but I agree ^^

And you're a bigger **** just like that ducking clown in your profile avatar. He'll fight froch and chavez jr at full 168 but ward at 164. A Spoken volume there.

has to be tough to be born ****** and stay like that until you pass away.

Thurman got a big gift with Collazo getting cut up. HUGE gift. Collazo without the cuts would've gotten some more of those killer liver bombs in, and everyone's darling prospect would've been toast.

And now that the cat's outta the bag that the guy is soft downstairs, you can bet EVERY fighter will zero in on that and drop him. Maidana would murder him. Khan, Pac and Algieri would pick him apart and flat out obliterate him.

The guy is now an accident waiting to happen. The only thing he accomplished last night was getting fights easier FNO. But with each of them FNO comes the liver bombs. Oh well. Cash out and become a trainer bub. It's your only out.

I see Khan or Porter in Thurman's future.
