    After Floyd knocks out Khan in under 4 rounds, How about Thurman vs Mayweather jr in September. I tired of hearing about Pac vs Floyd the fight is not going to happen, with or without Bob Arum. I believe that Thurman could fight 2 more time until September to increase his stock. At 147lb he is the only one that has a chance against Floyd besides Pac and that fight ain't happening. Thurman is with Golden boy so that should not be a problem.

    Keith has 0 fan base. And he's also just a kid (just turned 25 i think?). He'd look like Canelo in that fight. Too inexperienced, way too inexperienced.

    Like Thurman myself but that dude wouldn't sell out a local hockey rink.

    FFS even Paulie doesn't want to fight him, the man brings absolutely no fans.

    No one but hardcore boxing fans know him.

    Boxing is a business. If it doesn't make financial sense, it doesn't make sense at all.

    I don't think that Mayweather is gonna reach that far back in this new era of fighters.

    Nonsense, he'd do better than Canelo. Canelo lost every round essentially and didn't even try. Thurman is skilled, hits very hard and has heart.

    Too early for it though in hype and experience, agreed, but Canelo is a bad comparison.

    Canelo was more effective , the judges got it right in that fight IMO .

    I agree though , Thurman would be better , he wont just sit there and attempt to just box for the whole 36 mins like Canelo foolishly did .
