      I think there's something in these posts. Something has happened IMO and he's not going to be around that much longer.

      Hopefully they are able to find an opponent for May so that he can get back to meaningful fights by the end of the year.

        Yea people will complain but you still gotta sell tickets. Even with a low level opponent you still wanna have time to promote the fight.

          Yep. I get that same feeling. That's why I put the retirement option in the poll.

            There's got to be a chance that he's injured again. Maybe that's the reason?

              I thought I saw in an Ellie video at the Garcia gym that Josesito Lopez got the call to fight him.

                More promotion costs more money. I don't think it makes cents to waste money.

                  He's coming off a layoff just as long as Keith so I wouldn't doubt this. If it's true I wonder what's taking so long to announce it. They may as well have that fight in Keith's hometown in Florida.

                    Keith Thurman fighting a TBA with a month and a half time to get an opponent
                    I really want to like Thurman and tbh I liked him a hell of a lot back in the early days, but this **** isn't acceptable, finding an opponent for Thurman isn't a hard task and I get it he doesn't want a top 20 opponent on his return, but he can at the very least schedule an opponent who has enough time to prepare for a tough fight, surely!!

                      Lopez vs. Miguel Cruz on Fox was just announced.
