Speculation thread: Maidana-Thurman rumoured for Sept 13 co headliner

Oh boy, that would be one hell of a fight.

 

who can Floyd fight? Khan? Ramadan, Porter? not a big enough name, Pac? million excuses

looks like he might be forced to give Chino a rematch

 

If boxrec are right (which they aren't since this is pure speculation on their part) then it would have to be Porter or D.Garcia

 

I heard about Garcia at 140 but i dont think Floyd is gonna do that. U think mayweather really is thinking about 3 lineal titles at the same time?

I think he should fight Cotto if he wins

 

Wouldnt rule Khan out completely, Ramadan is over by the end of July.

Also the guy can stay in shape throughout Ramadan, just because you can eat during sun up for a month, doesnt mean, he'll waste away!

 

But I would LOVE to see a fight between Thurman and Maidana.

Fireworks, also whoever wins sets themselves up for a Floyd fight next year.

 

I think Khan is gonna get the fight

 

So you dimwits expect Khan to not only train for the biggest fight of his life in just 1month but also get his strength back up in that month?

lol get out of here. He needs a month just to recover from his fasting.

 

Man for a chance of a lifetime Khan might do it. Do you know what people do for a chance of a lifetime?? what Khan would be doing is nothing compared to what people have done to a get a chance at something they want bad.

 

6 weeks is the usual amount of time for a training camp, so yes.

Theres 6 weeks between the 27th of July and the 9th of September.

How much strength do you think hes going to lose in a month from not eating during sun up???

You do realize what Ramadan is dont you??

Hes not going to actually fast for a month, just eat 2 big meals a day.

 

One word, WAR.

 

He's already said he's not doing it, so pipe the **** down.

 

Hmmm Maidana said he would retire if he didn't get the rematch. I was saddened by this notion because he has improved greatly under garcia and still has many more exciting fights to give us. Marcos Maidana vs Keith Thurman would be an absolute war. I think if Chino can hurt him early like Soto-Karass did he could finish him. The longer it goes the better chance I give Thurman. This is a very tough fight for both men but Thurman is just so big and powerful that I think Maidana will have to take him out of their early.

 

this would be a great matchup.. thurman finally getting better guys.
