    I'd have him fight someone like:
    Mike Jones, Luis Abregu, Selcuk Aydin or even Randal Bailey.

    Damn is that your easy polishing up list?! Mike Jones is a good boxer with enough power to keep you honest, that is actually a great move up fight for Thurman, Bailey would be great to see just to see if Thurman has any glaring holes in his defense, but Aydin and Abregu are some killers I think those two guys crush the guys I mentioned in Kirkland and Angulo.

    They would all be pretty awesome fights.
    Fair assesment... I can see your points.
    I think you might be underestimating Angulo just a little bit.
    Jones in my eyes is nothing but a brawler. Soto-Karass gave him hell.

    Thinking about it some more you know who would be a good matchup for him.
    David Lopez now that would be a good fight.
    There's also someone like Grady Brewer who's always a good test for up an comers.
    How about that one boxer that looks bipolar who fought on Showtime several times. Harry something. His name escapes me at the moment.

    You know what you just uncovered another great fight, Soto Karass Vs Thurman in all out Brawl. That one ends pretty quickly, Im pretty sure Thurman takes him out but it would be fun while it lasted.
    The key is Self-discipline.

    I take it back what I said about him. I watched him against Lora and again against Quintana and he is a good puncher with excellent foot work. He could go all the way, I would like to see him at welterweight which he says would make him even more explosive because of the smaller gloves.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
