How much does Thurman deserve to get in a Spence fight?

We dont know that look at his recent history 2 yrs out, multiple surgery nearly beat by a B grader then a loss to Manny then more surgery and another year out . Wake up and smell reality Keith is a shell of his former self and needs to prove himself worthy of a title fight, why is he so long taking another fight maybe another B grade warm up is very risky so hold out and try and talk his way into a big fight, not for me others deserve a title shot way ahead of the current Thurman. Be that as it may, if the sanctioning bodies still have him ranked highly and he can still bring in some good revenue, who gets to say what he "deserves"? You?

I didn't realise he deserves a Spence fight at all. Shouldn't he go get himself a belt 1st? Shouldn't he give Spence time to go play on his farm 1st? If unbeaten Welterweight world champion doesn't deserve the fight why does a non champion who hasn't fought in years and is coming off a loss? Surely he now goes behind Crawford in this queue Spence was talking about. Or does he slip in ahead of Bud to makes Spence route "even easier".

Anyone that Packy can beat these days is worth s**t, Thurman really did blow his career by losing there. It just takes a while for some fans to catch up with what's real today.

His plan which he repeatedly said in countless press cons is to exhaust all available fights for him at PBC. He named names like Garcia, Thurman, Pacquiao, Ugas. Crawford is his last resort which will take years. It doesn't have anything to do with titles. Danny Swift Garcia didn't have a title doe. Mandatory fight. He told Crawford to his face, what he was going to do, on video. He has yet to deviate from "taking the easier belts first". I get it. You just don't like Spence. I can see that any further conversation with you will be fruitless at this point.

Crawford. Spence has always stated his plan: Collect all the belts, then unify with Crawford. It's the people that forget about this though. Spence hasn't deviated from that objective yet. So I will hold him to it until he proves otherwise. If he proves otherwise, he takes a credibility hit for me. That's why, for me, Thurman is a waste of time.

deserved more than garcia and porter but i think spence will be contented of fighting thurman left over.

Just make the fight.

What's all this talk about how much a fighter "deserves"? Thurman is still regarded as one of the top fighters in the WW division. Pay the man.

If Thurman is a waste of time, who is Spence going to fight next after Ugas? He can't keep fighting in-house rematches fans are not interested in seeing. Bear in mind he wants no part of Crawford doe. Crawford. Spence has always stated his plan: Collect all the belts, then unify with Crawford. It's the people that forget about this though.

Definetly not 60/40, because if he gets paid that or more then Spence would officially be ducking Bud.

At this point, deserves have little to do with it. Thurman is a better than most option.

Crawford is not a PPV star, and Thurman is demanding $10 million. Logically, he should deserve more in a fight with Spence, who is touted by his fans as now a PPV sensation.

Nothing. Because he doesn't deserve a Spence fight. That fight is such a waste of time. If it's not Ugas, It's a waste of time. We know Crawford isn't going to happen, so at least get Ugas' WBA strap and then open negotiations directly with Crawford. If Thurman is a waste of time, who is Spence going to fight next after Ugas?

I don't think Thurman's demand of $10 million is that far-fetched in the Crawford fight. It's real. It's been a pattern when it comes to PBC fighters. As if they're raking tens of millions of $$$ in the PBC house. Do you think he will be guaranteed $10 million in the Spence fight, if it ever happens?

I don't see Thurman and Porter accepting offers from outside the PBC house. Nor Haymon would even allow it. Arum better stop making offers to these guys.

So how much would he be guaranteed in a Spence fight? $3 million? Go get your money Keith! Spence is running out of dance partners so a fight with Thurman might be a possibility. It'll probably be Thurman, Ugas, or his IBF mandatory next. Depends how the Paquiao saga shakes up.

Thurman has closed the door on the Crawford fight. Fans should expect he'll stick with PBC and fight Spence. It will be a PPV fight and Thurman might get what he wants. $3 million guarantee, at least.

If Spence doesn’t fight Crawford and Pacquiao next, I think Thurman should be the next in line based on the trend of Spence’s recent opponents. Thurman has closed the door on the Crawford fight. Fans should expect he'll stick with PBC and fight Spence.
