Keith Thurman...wtf was that?

[Xwetie]

I think thurman put on a good performance, just sad that someone was whispering in his ear around 4 or 5th round, Thurman keep him alive for 12 rounds, We can't let the audience sit around for 45 minutes picking their noses, so i thats why he slagged off a bit

Anything is possible, but I seriously doubt it as they've never seemed to care before.

The more I think about this post the more naive/ridiculous it sounds, so I need to talk about it some more.
Boxers in general and Thurman (to name just one) in particular has an ego the the size of a large walk-in freezer, so I imagine someone asking him to carry another fighter would get a very loud "fuck you" in return.
We've seen some stupid boxers over the years, but I don't think Thurman is one of them. Asking or telling an intelligent, prideful, up and coming fighter to make himself look less than he is plus cost himself big paydays down the line would get you a "fuck off".

I think Thurman did well and would much prefer him fighting Floyd/Khan/Brooks.

He needs to watch the Alvarez v Mayweather fight about 10 times and understand that he is not coming close to out boxing, out thinking or out running Floyd.

That is true he is too green for that but Thurman would beat Khan and Brooks.
