Nothing against Keith. But over a year inactive? In a division such as welter with all that talent hovering around? Get better and come back and fight for it.

I like it. Then the winner can fight either Spence or Crawford.
I find it unusual that the WBC didn't pronounce Thurman champion emeritus, I'm glad they didn't but that is usually the way they go when one of their champions is out for a long period with injuries etc.
Porter/ Garcia should have already been made for the interim title while Thurman was out/ wanting a tune up or 2.
I'm intrigued to see how Danny deals with Porters pressure. I see Porter taking a decision in a messy/ ugly fight.
They live, We sleep
Think the deal is Thurman gets immediate first option. If of course he doesn't break a nail or bruise something else before hand.
Seriously this is a good thing. I can see Porters crash and collide style giving Garcia many problems but Garcia sharp countering opportunity will be abundant. But have no desire for a Porter v Spence oddly enough.
I'm beginning to wonder if Thurman will just wait for the Porter/Garcia winner after a tuneup then retire. Dude claims a 6 week rehab(bone spurs) is still going. No chance in hell he is still rehabbing from bone spur removal.
we all misunderstood the whole 'one time' nickname, ends up he meant that he will only fight one time a year
I think Thurman may be one of those athletes that has talent, understands his sport, dedicates himself to training and trying to refine his craft- HOWEVER, like many basketball busts and busts in other sports due to injury, his BODY may not be able to handle the level of competition and training needed to be great over time.
A similar case of this comes to mind is Meldrick Taylor. Great fighter. Well schooled and trained. But his body clearly could not handle the rigours of the sport. Same issue with Naseem Hamed- his hands could not take what he was able to dish out.
Bigger man George, bigger punch!
