Keith Thurman has a tough fight ahead of him, but he's feeling good about it and should he win he wants Danny Garcia next.
Keith Thurman has a big fight awaiting him on June 25th when he'll face Shawn Porter at the Barclays Center in a highly anticipated fight. Thurman says he's feeling good after his injury setback which delayed the fight and is ready to Rock N Roll.
And not overlooking Porter, Keith Thurman says a win over him will solidify his position as the best welterweight in the division. At that point he'll look to target other the other titlists in the division, namely Danny Garcia.
"I would love the Danny Garcia fight and I want that WBC belt. I am not a fan of Garcia being at 147lb and he picks his fights - facing someone decent once every three fights. He would have trouble with a lot of the top welters including me, Porter and Kell Brook. The division has three undefeated champions and it is time they faced off," he added.
Obviously that's a sentiment all boxing fans can get on board with. After all, we do want to see the best fighting the best. As for the other undefeated welterweight titlist, Thurman says that Kell Brook has a nice shiny record, but that it really just might be fool's gold.
"Brook definitely has great potential and he did well to get himself a world title. His record is good but it does not have great credentials. We don't really like that over here in the USA, someone with his type of record who has only thought one or two top ten guys."
Surely there are a number of intriguing fights for Thurman in the near future (win or lose), and I don't really blame him for calling out Garcia or Brook, but first things first -- Shawn Porter will certainly be no pushover.

This is exactly how I felt when Tito & Roy fought. I was so upset, I swore to myself I wouldn't even watch.
Then I did end up forcing myself to watch, but I was looking like this in front of my TV the whole time

Matthew Macklin struggled with Brian Rose.....Demetrius Andrade dominated Brian Rose
Beautiful counter right hook
Macklin was a decent cat....he gave Sergio a good fight and i wont forget how he sent Alcine to the bushes in a round on the Sergio-Jr PPV...and he should have got the nod against Sturm for the belt..salute him in his retirement
So, we hearing 600k from Fat Dan (ESPN), Mitch Abramason (RING TV) and Lance Puigmire (LA Times)...Rick Glazer saying 332K...and now we have this:
Kevin Iole (Yahoo Sports)
Jake Donovan from Boxingscene says those 600k numbers are
, and also if we went with Glazer's report of lil g doing 97k...we have to go with his report of Canelo doing 332k as well
, but I think Iole's numbers might be closer to the official number
