'The eye test can lie to you' - Bud Crawford and anyone else who knows boxing. Crawford and Spence both said Thurman is the man to beat at 147, I guess you know more hey...
Roach says many things, his agenda changes every other week m8
Thurman was picked because he does the best numbers at 147 and is the most proven, so Pac gets the most credit for beating him
Thurman apart from 2yrs out and a terrible last fight can look as you say on paper and off course you chose the paper and ignore the form going into the fight even though there was never a mention of Thurman before his poor showing, good timing with Spence calling out Manny, stage left into a wounded Thurmon.
Spence or Crawford will beat both Manny and Thurman, they are better fighters in prime with no injury asterisks . You watch Spence run over Porter, he just showed his boxing IQ with Garcia now you watch him breaking down and stopping Porter. with attrition and pressure.

The fact that Crawford and Spence acknowledges that. Pac should really be number 1 in the welterweight division.
I guess you dont have eyes, or the boxing brain to accurately unravel what you see.
Thurman had one fight in 2 yrs and looked bad against a B guy, dont jump over that asterisk with but but but, he looked like crap and thats why he was picked.
Roach has said publicly he wants to keep Manny away from Spence and Crawford, why do you think he said that lol, that right you know more hey lol.

Of course they do!
Look at he opponents they’ve faced!
HAHA they have not proven a thing.
PAC is #1 WW.
You couldnt tell the difference from looking at them, it will come in time, like I said Manny will not fight Spence or TC you wait and see.
:lol1: That's hilarious. Based on what?

The point was Spence and Crawford are better than Thurman by quite a margin.
I dont look at ratings I look at fighters.

What a silly comment. Pacman just beat the #1 welterweight. Hurting somebody does not count for much, fighters get hurt all the time, Lopez lost almost every round and Pacman won a close fight fair and square.
Fights are not won on paper. Pac has the best overall resume AND the best RECENT resume.

Anyone that knows anything about boxing knows Spence and Crawford will both kick the sht out of Manny, you guys are hype junkies Josesito Lopez is the new gate keeper and must be right up there as he had Thurman more out than Manny did.
"Spence and Crawford will both kick the sht out of Manny"
Hasn't happened. Meanwhile Manny at 40 just kick the sht out of this generation's unified welter champ :lol1:
I agree. It's hard to argue against a legend like Pac man who has been there and done that. Both Crawford and Spence has a long way to go and lot to prove before knocking the champ off his throne. Pac's performance against Keith Thurman more than cemented his position as the #1 Welterweight in the world.
That win over Thurman is the best win at 147 rn. Manny or Spence should be #1. But i hate how yall give Spence no credit for that win over Brook who has been the only guy to dominate Porter
It's funny how "getting hurt" means you lost or suck.
Keith dominated that fight and when he got caught, he survived and continued and won the fight, like champions do. I don't get why people think he looked bad just because "he got caught"
Keith did well against a game Lopez and won almost all rounds and when he got hurt, he survived and eventually won the fight
Welcome to boxingscene bruh, where 95% of posters don't know wtf they're talking about

How could he not be #1?
He just beat Thurman. Name a top 5 WW that Crawford and Spence have beaten? I’ll wait.
Didn’t Spence beat Brook?
And let’s not act like Thurman hasn’t been avoiding Spence like the plague either. Thurman wasn’t a consensus #1 at WW so I don’t see why Manny should be for beating him. There’s PLENTY of room for debate.
Of course Pac s no1. Spence and Crawford can't boast of a win over thurman.
Who have they beat that makes them no1? It's ok to have them no1 but it's not based on anything just an idea.
And if Pac s no1 that's ok as well. Spence and Crawford haven't beat anyone to say this is why there no1
British trash
British boxers should never be ranked in top 10 ever
Maybe just fury but he's a gypsy
Lennox Lewis is a British boxer and he has a win over every opponent he faced. You don't think he's above Fury?
