M.I.A - Keith Thurman

[GaMo]

If he’s fighting as regularly as his rivals but against better opposition (which this year he has) then he does get a pass.

You think Danny Garcia is better than Brook? 😂

I know Garcia is better than Brook and Danny wasn’t damaged goods either

Then you know fuck all. Just like you came here spouting about ginger pubes. I get it now. You like guys that duck fights.

For example Garcia was ordered to fight Porter quack quack quack. Back to Garcia ways. Won’t even consider fighting Spence. Never considered fighting Brook. Where as Brook beat Porter.

Anyone with an eye knew Garcia was the soft champ at 147 until Horn came along. That’s why they all called him out. He hid as long as he could, earning your respect. You like hiders. Like Thurman. Like ginger pubes hiding at Caneloweight. And judge seekers like Spence. It’s sad, but do your sad thing.

The only idiot here is you Ron, I’m not even a fan of Garcia. Can’t stand the guy and always root against him but there’s no question he’s achieved more than Brook and is overall the more accomplished fighter. I’m not even a fan of Thurman I just accept that he’s the best at 147. The only one here being bias is you.

This thread could easily have been called "Danny Garcia - MIA" just saying.

Could be said for anyone in the top five as they’ve all only fought once this year

[Master]

Brook is moving up to light middle now.

[Ron Swanson]

Yes, I have a bias that I favor the guys trying to make the hard fights. And bias against the guys that avoid them like the plague.

Brook was the number 1 guy according to Ring, and he brings more money than Garcia. If Garcia is better, why were ALL the other top guys looking at Garcia? The simple answer is everyone knew Garcia was the easier fight.

I’d love to hear what you think makes Garcia a better fighter. I am not talking about accomplishments at 140. I’m talking about being a better fighter. You say he’s better, tell me how.

Do this and I’ll gladly tell you all the ways Brook is a better fighter. We can compare notes

Edit-You have a few hours to think, I have to go to work

[GaMo]

@Ron Swanson Garcia has been in with and beaten the better fighters, Brook has beaten one good fighter in his entire career. People want to fight Garcia because they know they won’t have to travel to England to do it. Brook has spent his entire career at home beating up bums aside from the one night he scraped by Porter.

[Spicoli]

I doubt very seriously either Thurman or Spence fear one another and save for Crawford..who should already be at 147..are the cream of the division. Thurman has done well to finally have his big showcase showdown with another top fighter like Garcia though Garcia very much tip toed his way arriving at 147 and when his time came he kept his hands in his pockets in many spots. Now he's thinking about a Brandon Rios fight? Ok. Anyone want to really talk about damaged goods. It's a bit disingenuous to knock Brook getting bashed up after jumping two divisions to take a fight that frankly no one expected him to win in the first place. He didn't exactly choke there and held his own on the cards and suffered a serious injury. Spence did what a top fighter looking for a breakout does and fought the number 1,2 guy in division. And he traveled to do it and put it all on the line. Something to be said about respected points in careers between Spence and Thurman also, Spence is considered the top dog by more than a few where at same 4.5 yr mark Thurman was literally missing in action sitting out for over a year and still to fight his own 'damaged goods' in Carlos Quintana for a stepping stone trinket.

[Ron Swanson]

To address his M.I.A status the guy who had elective surgery the week that one way or another his clear next rightful opponent would emerge. The guy he said he wanted to fight next would emerge.

The guy that left country after his next rightful opponent emerged. He’s back, immediately after his next rightful opponent signed a fight Keith Thurman is back.

What does he say? He says he will fight in February or March. That’s nearly a year for fricken bone spurs being removed.

But he’s looking at Spence right? Well, not really, he says first TBA needs a shot so he can knock the rust off. Then Porter or Garcia. Then Spence...Maybe.
