Keith Thurman will return to the ring after three years next month to stand in a 10-round against Brock Jarvis on March 12 in the Horders Pavilion in Sydney. Something brought the former WBA and WBC world champion in the world weight Thurman (30-1, 22 Kos). Thurman does not like the critics who have roasted him with his inner focus because of umbilical blues and who once ignore his career.
It could be money. He says he has a “good contract” for this year, which could lead to a fight against Tim Tszyu. If Keith can make it through Jarvis and his training camps, a fight against TSzyu is possible. Thurman was to fight the former WBO Junior Center Tszyu last year on March 30th on March 30th, but pulled out due to an injury.
Rust and rebranding
After three years, ‘One Time’ Thurman probably loved a big one. The fact that he stayed outside so long indicates that he will disappear after a fight or two.
In Thurman’s first comeback fight, he competes against the 27-year-old Jarvis (22-1.20 Kos) in a praise for him. The last time Thurman fought in 2022, he would have worked slightly a fighter like Jarvis, but now it is unclear whether he would be 36.
“We just complain. We have the worst critics. We criticize everything. ‘He is in this phase of his career. What did he get? “, Keith Thurman said to MillCity Boxingreacts to the criticism he received for his latest comeback against Brock Jarvis. “Just let us enjoy boxing and see what Thurman has. You want to know that. That’s what it’s about.
“I have a good contract this year. I’ll say that. This is an opening act. I like the excitement and the structure. I feel like another man. 36 years old. I’m not 26, I could rename. In the beginning everyone saw the strength when I was 22-0, 20 knockouts. I made my seventh silent withdrawal, ”said Thurman.
You cannot blame fans to criticize Thurman for his inactivity, which has been a pattern since 2017. He only fought three times since his victory against Danny Garcia eight years ago, and the fans don’t see how former stars see fighting so rarely. It lets her question her ambition and willingness to work hard.
