Is thurman just another american level fighter?

You mean Ricky Hatton (Mayweather) and Froch (Ward) were American? Let's face it every country including the USA has so so fighters.

 

That's not true, Thurman has been fighting any and everybody that's thrown in his face and all the time calling for big fights. He don't need to fight Bundu cause when he beats Bundu's ass that will only make Brook dig a deeper hole. Bring on Brook right now. Thurman will jump at that shot. That ain't no secret. Yeah, Brook beat Porter but that's really not saying that much considering that size and styles of the two fighters. Brook is a pretty good boxer and he had the size and style to beat Porter but Thurman is a different animal and Brook's ass would be in some serious trouble.

 

+1

 

ppv wise yes, better fighter no. yes Mayweather is the best but quantity wise the US does not dominate it, just look at all the lower weights, MW, and HW.

 

Thurman is very good and has the potential to be a great champion one day.

 

By "any and everybody" do you mean the guys who were supposed to lose to begin with? Because that's exactly who Thurman has been fighting. He may doesn't need to fight Bundu, but he surely doesn't deserve a shot at Brook before Bundu.

You now may say that Brook's victory over Porter isn't saying much, but the American public had Porter as a big favorite, and people on this forum went as far as claiming that Porter stops the likes of Pacquiao and Marquez. If you took a certain side, now take it. It was Brook who went to Porter's comfort zone and took it from him.

Yes, Thurman has been calling out a lot of guys, but from some reason he didn't fight any of them. Many of those guys even have the same promoters and managers, so I'm not sure why is he unable to get a fight against the likes of Porter, Mayweather, Khan, Broner, Alexander etc. However, one thing still remains the same, he doesn't deserve to skip the line because of that.

 

Quit trying to save Brook cause you know if he fights Thurman, he will be a one hit wonder. I'm not the American public and I had the fight a toss up. Like I said, Styles makes fights and I think that because of the size factor and his aggressive style, he stands a very good chance of beating Pac and JMM.

What Brook did in the Porter fight didn't impress me, He did what he was supposed to do. He used his size and his boxing skills to beat a smaller brawler. Porter didn't box at all. Brook got the lucky break because Porter was on borrowed time. Had he fought Thurman, then Thurman would have the belt. You named a lot of fighters that Thurman can't get a fight with, well, you can add Brook's name to that list because you know why he can't get those fights. FEAR! Why does he need to go through anybody to get to Brook when Brook didn't go through anybody to get to Porter. You act like Brook was raising a whole lot of hell. Get real.

 

To save Brook? I'm perfectly fine if Brook vs Thurman happens next.

However, I would rather see Bundu get his deserved shot, as he just went to UK and deteated the odds by beating their undefeated highly regarded boxer. He is the champ and he went to the opponent's backyard and defended his title there despite everything being turned against him.

Meanwhile Thurman keeps calling for the big fights but does little besides that. He should at least fight Bundu in Europe, even if he skips the line and gets the Brook fight, I'll be looking forward to that fight.

With that being said, I think that Brook beats both Bundu and Thurman.

I also find it strange that you are not calling for the Mayweathet - Thurman fight since Keith is the WBA interim titlist if I'm correct. So using your own logic, are you trying to save Floyd?

 

:deal thurman is top notch

 

I like this fight. Good step up for Thurman

 

Why? Thurman looks like he has the goods.

 

Devon beat Maidana alot easier than Floyd does that mean he's better than Floyd?

 

Thats like asking if a player is a brazilian level soccer player.

 

whats so weird looking about Thurman?brook looks weirder to me he has that deformed facial look that carl froch has.
