Keith Thurman will be facing Diego Chavez in july for the interim WBA title at 147. This little tourney needs to happen
His name is spelled with an s, by the way - not a z. The misleading title could lead people not up on the schedule to believe Keith Thurman (who does vacillate between 147 and 154, so I guess it wouldn't be that huge a stretch) was getting in with Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. - and even more improbably, that a former super featherweight (Broner) might then be paired up with the gigantic middleweight. :yep
Thurman could get the winner of Alexander vs Khan, Broner will be protected and not be matched with Thurman.
Winner of maidana/Lopez is also in the mix. Maidana is ranked high by the WBA and they seem to like him.
