    Default Are we being to harsh on Thurman?

    He beat Porter and Garcia and holds two of the world championship Belts...he is injured and will make the big fights in 2019.

    Surely that's fair?

    People on here I do feel are giving him a hard time and are sceptical about his injury and count his honesty about fighting Spence against him.

    Time will tell if he is being treated harshly or not if and when he takes on the best again which include Crawford as well.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Right, first people incorrectly give him the benefit of the doubt saying "injury". He wasn't injured, he had elective surgery on bone spurs. It's a condition, not an injury.

    And it has about a 4-6 week healing time. in fact the great majority of normal people feel fine after just a couple days. When I had bone spurs removed I took exactly 0 days off work. Yes, I am not a professional athlete but bone spurs is so f'n nothing I can't believe people are still talking about it.

    For him to need a "get back year" ummm, what was last year?

    He deserves far more negativity than he is getting

    Fair enough.

    Now all of a sudden Porter is injured and only wants to wait around for Thurman..what's his excuse?

    Is everyone waiting/hoping for Spence to get beaten by Crawford or something?

    Fuck Porter, he's a contender, a challenger, he's not a champion. He doesn't get to call the shots. Thurman is supposed to be a Champion, and he hasn't defended in how long. He's not the only one, unfortunately nowadays it's the norm . If he's injured fine, he should get stripped, 2 guys fight for the title, and as soon as he's back, he gets to fight for the belt on at least a 50/50 split.
    some people get injured, but that can't be allowed to hold the whole division at ransom.
    Former Undisputed 4 belt Prediction champion. Still P4P and People’s Champion.
