WBA Interim-welterweight champion Keith "One Time" Thurman (21-0, 19KOs) says there was no hesitation in accepting a fight with Jesus Soto Karass (28-8-3, 18KOs) - because he wants the most dangerous opponents at the weight. Unlike other undefeated fighters, Thurman is ready to face the most toughest competition and doesn't have any fear of losing.

“My promoters have been testing me and I’ve been passing every test with flying colors.  So I’m ready for the world of boxing.  I’m not afraid to lose, I’m not afraid to get beat.  I want go out old school and fight the best of the best," Thurman said.

“My KO ratio is phenomenal, but, as a matter of fact, I’m disappointed that I didn’t knock out everybody.  I’m the kind of guy that wants to knockout everybody.  I’m “One Time,” every time.  And that’s what I’m bringing Saturday night.“I’m not afraid to put it all on the line. I’ve got an “O” and I’m not afraid to let it go.
