Floyd avoiding Thurman now!

[Violent Demise]

People say they don't wanna see Floyd rematch Alvarez. Yet they are pushing for a Thurman fight. Why? Cuz he beat Julio Diaz and Soto Karass? Thurman would have less success than Alvarez did

THen he should just fucking retire. He is making his legacy worse by picking these same fighters to run from over and over. FIght someone dangerous....or retire

... and this is fresh history. Not shady 50 years ago history. I mean, EVERYTHING is recorded.

Floyd should do like those all time greats from 50 years ago and fight bums with 12-5-4 and 29-19-8 records.

What does fighting Gurerro have to do with the flavour of the month in Thurman and this ridiculous notion that Floyd is ducking him? Robert beat the snot out of Berto and then followed it up with a waxing of Aydin and that's after jumping straight from 135. What has Thurman done save managing a win over Diego Chaves? and a couple of journeymen in Diaz and Karass. Have him beat Porter or challenge Brook.

Floyds a fight or two from ending his career.

Seriously get a grip!

Jesus lam i never took you for a nuthugger. Who deserves a shot then? Going from your description noone deserves a shot and whoever Floyd choses is the right choice. For the rest of us who enjoy the credibility of boxing we want to see the best fight the best and actually challenge themselves instead of watching one dimensional limited fights chase floyd around the ring like a kid trying to swat a fly. And did you not watch the Guerrero fight? Guerrero took as much shots as Berto did and was alot more damaged at the end of the fight. That fight clearly showed Guerrero was not at the level of Floyd

I've seen people take things out of context before but this is as fucking ridiculous as the notion that he's ducking Thurman.

Like I said, Get a grip. Now I'm certain. You have been following this sport for about 4 years and believe that somehow nothing before matters in terms of legacy and prize fighting or how much they overlap. And in the minds of people like you, one is either a nuthugger or a hater.

In short you are a fucking pin head. I wont even bother to respond to tadpoles like you anymore who's sense of boxing history was last week and instead seek out real fucking dialogue and debate.

Is there talk of Floyd rematching Alvarez. I didn't hear that. In my mind I think it would be a tougher fight for Floyd now but in reality he would probably still have Alvarez swinging at air

[beenKOed]

This shit is getting ridiculous. Floyd will be avoiding the Charlo brothers next. Why would Thurman even be on Floyds radar at this point? Its asinine and the pundits that write this garbage are strokers.

He is the #1 contender for the WBA belt. If anything else, all other fights that are even less worthy, don't make excuses to not fight at least your mandatory.

He ducked Manny as a mandatory as well.

Wilder is #1 for the WBCROCK and has never fought an opponent below 50. And when in the last 5 years has a mandatory ever effected Floyds decision making process?

Never, Floyd hasn't done anything in the ring he doesn't want to for years.

I agree with your point about Thurman not being ready and not beating anyone of note. I hate to be "that guy", but I don't know that u could have less success than Canelo. Even though CJ Ross had it close, it was a poor performance and I didn't see anything of note from Alvarez. You are right about Thurman likely being dominated in similar fashion.

On a side note, fights like the Alvarez, Guerrero...etc., fights are why I have an issue ranking Floyd over Duran. An in shape Duran would've destroyed Canelo. Chewed him up n spit him out. The reason I can see Floyd ranked higher is that guy comes to every fight in phenomenal shape and motivated, where Duran didn't and lost to some pretty sub par fighters.

Again why? Outside of pac I see 5 or 6 viable candidates to fight Floyd. Thurman is one of them. For some reason you and Floyd refuse to acknowledge his existence

[erics44]

I agree with Floyd. Thurman nowhere near ready for him. I don't think Floyd is ducking at all, just being honest.

If he beats Andre Berto, he should get the fight.

that seems to be the criteria for fighting floyd

are them two fighting? berto and thurman?

I want one of Floyd's cherry picked opponents to kick his ass one day...

[Spicoli]

I personally will throw a parade when Mayweather retires...but Thurman better slow his role and bone up on his basics before he even thinks Mayweather. Seriously, why are we so enamored with rushing guys into a career blender like they come with talent expiration dates If Thurman is on a level of Floyd...cough cough...he'll take a gradual step up and shine and make a statement, if not he'll go the way of someone else previously sharing the "Floyd has to fight HIM" mantra...Shawn Porter

Thurman is one fight...1...from being continually caught with right hands and having his legs buckle in the 1st round with Soto Karass. His answer was to stumble into the ropes with his hands down. Soto Karass at the start of a fight has the speed of a horse drawn carriage, and one going downhill when he warms up. Thurman has potential, charisma and the gift for gab and a willingness to engage. He needs work and to get off this tag line of "one shot-one time" blah and power beats all. Floyds a giant size arsehole with a little man complex, but right now he would time and tame Thurman like he does one of his Snufalufagus looking body guards.
