    Khan isn't directing his followers to the other polls. I seem to recall Kostya Tszyu polling his fans for his next opponent and Hatton's fans flooded the poll. I think Floyd should face the winner of the poll whichver it is and Broner take the loser of the poll also on the undercard and you may have something there.

    Amir is a bum and does not deserve a shot with floyd.

    With all the hype surrounding fighters like GGG, Kovalev, and Adonis
    stevenson, and other explosive offensive fighters, and deservedly so.
    None of those have the potential to usher in a new era of the sport
    of boxing like Keith Thurman. 1 time WILL stop mayweather and become
    the biggest crossover star this sport has seen in a long time, while becoming
    the undisputed king of boxing in about 24 months time. Bookmark this post!

    1 time nation is coming soon!!

    Thurman will eventually become a viable opponent for Mayweather but he'll need a couple more high profile wins( Collazo, Porter) to get on the PPV radar.

    Where is the hate? Would Thurman not beat both Khan and Maidana? Both fighters are under Haymon...so why not Thurman?

    Alot of the more knowlegeable ESB posters are all seeing the same
    thing I am. It's about time an american fighter started getting us
    excited about having an new ambassador for boxing in the states.
    KT has that hybrid charismatic street cred while at the same time
    having a good mature head on his shoulders. His controlled boxer
    puncher style is a fan gatherer while his camera appeal will see him
    on the big screen and garnering respect. Something Floyd has
    never been able to do.

    Listen im a big fan of thurman, and I see the Potential! Hes need another year to really be ready for something like that. Need about 3, 4 more wins. against top Opponents

    For people saying why not him, well for obvious reasons. A ton of people still dont know him, and I really dont know his best win. Hes got time folks, lets just chill

    This makes no sense to me man. Is Collazo a PPV star? Porter? No, they aren't. Neither are Maidana or Khan. Beating Porter or Collazo will help Keiths ranking but as it stands now, I'd rather have him than Khan or Collazo

    Keith has no fight lined up, so again... what's the problem?

    I'll pose the question to you: Who wins out of Thurman, Khan and Maidana at this point?
