So Keith's return against Bum #1 has been cancelled because he injured something or other and had to pull out. I think the man is stalling and contemplating whether he wants to stay in this boxing game... Meaning, he's terrified of Spence and Crawford. #glasselbow #glasshand
I think Haymon is having a hard time getting tv dates outside of Showtime. That whole idea of paying networks to show your fights wasn't going to last very long. Keith wants to fight an unranked fighter first, then a top 10 guy, then Spence (he claims). I dont see how that warrants a TV date. I think he's content to sit out while he waits for one though.
Why? Because he is injured? Thats why you have interim belts. WBA already gave a belt to Matthysse because of Thurmans injuries. Now the WBC should sanction Porter and Garcia for a belt.
I don't want to see Thurman fight so much as wanting to see the belts be released from his death grip.
He gets injured purposely i think. He had a car crash before the Porter fight was incoming. Then he had another arm injury after Garcia which looked like he just burned his arm on the stove. I dunno... I guess he's just very injury prone.
