    The problem with Thurman is he tends to throw one punch at a time. He's not much of a combination puncher. Maidana has shown that Mayweather can be caught with big single shots. But I'm not sure Thurman has the temperament to consistently attack Mayweather and catch him with a volley of shots

    That's not to say he can't catch Mayweather and drop him hard

    thurmans proven nothing to me, no big wins yet, he's still fighting on undercards so doesn't seem to have much support / interest from the general public either.

    can't see the fight happening in May 15, if Thurman puts a few wins together against some top opposition he could be in the frame come late 2015,

    Maybe in September '15

    If he looks impressive against Bundu and has a big fight in the Spring, then he has a good a chance as anyone of getting the fight.

    I like Keith and all, but what has he done for people to think Floyd would duck him? You guys think he ducks everyone.

    Mayweather has a track record of picking fight he knows he can win and avoiding the tough ones

    I've heard people say he'll duck Mosley, Cotto, Canelo, and even ****ing Maidana. So you claiming he'll duck Thurman when Thurman hasn't done **** to look like a world class fighter means nothing. You're just another guy in the bunch looking for the next guy that Floyd can't beat. It's a trend and it never stops.

    First, he's ducking John Smith. Then, John Smith was drained, fatigued, short training camp, a bum, no heart, too small, too slow, you name it. It never fails and I don't think people will come to appreciate Floyd until years after retirement, I could be wrong though, only time will tell. Remember, people HATED Muhammed Ali, and look at how he's recognized now. People celebrated when Roy Jones JR lost, but he's still recognized as one of the best in his prime. My parents were alive when Ali was around and they said people hated him the same way they hate Floyd today.

    when have I said he was going to duck maidana I called both maidana and amir fights jokes

    I have always said he has been ducking pac prime toni Williams prime shane cotto when he was at 140 winky he is also ducking golvokin but that's something else

    regardless you can not deny he has been ducking Manny Pacquaio even his biggest fans are starting to turn on him for acting funny for this fight
