    I'm by no means a fan of Keith Thurman, but his absence from P4P lists is messed up. Keith's got a better resume than Mikey, Crawford, and Spence, yet he has never made an appearance on any P4P lists. And you can't make the argument that the case is because of his inactivity because Mikey, Rigo, and Ward were featured prominently on P4P lists during their long breaks from the sport.

    Ward and Mikey were both absent for close to 2 years and they never lost their spot... Rigo fought extremely infrequently as well.

    His has the best WW resume by far. However his two best wins he just barely scraped by. With that being said, no WW currently belongs on the p4p list.

    I agree, he's easily the most accomplished of all the current Welterweights, and will still provide Spence and Crawford with their hardest fights, that being said, you'e only saying this because he's going to fight Pacquiao and you're in the One Time hyping game now.

    So now the sun shines out of Thurmans behind because he's about to lay Manny out flat when they potentially fight. lol ?

    Can you really argue that Thurman doesn't have a better resume than Crawford, Spence, and Garcia?
