Thurman vs Crawford Why Not?

Crawford scared to fight anyone with a chance........He can't find a fight at welterweight and Porter has been calling him out for 7 months. Don't give me the b.s. that Shawn should have enforced his mandatory, his Dad went right to Arum and Arum refused to give him any offer.....this is after both Crawford and Arum said publicly that if the Pacman fight doesn't work out they would fight Porter....and then.....crickets! And if that does not convince you Arum was so scared Porter would then enforce his mandatory after trying in good faith to negotiate the WBO suddenly drops Porter from number one spot. This is so transparent I can't believe so many fans can't see this. You got this right Left Hook Tua.

You guys are too tough on Crawford Crawford is the best I remember back in 2015 he beat a prime kell brook when brook was at the top of 147

Thurman is all but retired and hasn’t fought in a few years. His last 2 fights- questionable MD win over josesito lopez and a loss to manny. why would he get a Crawford fight right now? Have u seen who Crawford has been fighting lately? He fought a Lithuanian cab driver last time I saw him Or was he a romanian gypsy? Eh who the feck cares

Hey now Don't knock zepeda Zepeda was an okay lightweight currently campaigning at 140 its not like Crawford is gonna fight him at 147 Right? That fight might be for Crawford's title so more than likely it will be at WW. Zepeda did not look that good in his last fight against Lundy, I don't think that he will look any better against Crawford. He looks a little shop worn, maybe that fight against Ivan took a lot out of him.

It's the best possible opponent for Crawford right now. Thurman is the most reputable and decorated welterweight out there for him and Thurman needs an opponent as much as Crawford. This is the best match up for Crawford right now. Thurman is all but retired and hasn’t fought in a few years. His last 2 fights- questionable MD win over josesito lopez and a loss to manny. why would he get a Crawford fight right now?

"Come up to MY weight to fight me or NO FIGHT!!" Fight me at 140 if you want your 70%. If not at least give me 40%.

It's the best possible opponent for Crawford right now. Thurman is the most reputable and decorated welterweight out there for him and Thurman needs an opponent as much as Crawford. This is the best match up for Crawford right now. Makes too much sense. I don’t think Spence or Crawford’s corporations would go for it.

Crawford will fight Zepeda and then he will fight Josh Taylor. Crawford won't fight any credible WW. Hey now Don't knock zepeda Zepeda was an okay lightweight currently campaigning at 140 its not like Crawford is gonna fight him at 147 Right?

Crawford will fight Zepeda and then he will fight Josh Taylor. Crawford won't fight any credible WW.

Sign me up for this fight. Thurman does good numbers at the gate and his PPV vs Pacquiao did good numbers. This is a fight Arum could sell on PPV and a fight Crawford should do well in. Last I checked, Thurman/Porter II is not official or set yet. Still time to make this fight happen.

Absolutely, sign me up. Keith, whether or not you think he's well past his best, is still light years ahead of any scalp on Crawford's resume. I would love to see it. Instead though we'll get yet another Crawford showcase against a C+ no-hoper.

Thurman won't fight crawford. He is scared. Yes The guy who fought Danny Garcia and manny pacquiao and Shawn porter is scared of the guy who fights nobodies. What was Crawfords last fight? That Lithuanian cab driver? Or was it that latvian lumberjack? That romanian gypsy? Can't keep track of all the bums and washed up fighters Crawford fights.

It's the best possible opponent for Crawford right now. Thurman is the most reputable and decorated welterweight out there for him and Thurman needs an opponent as much as Crawford. This is the best match up for Crawford right now. Thurman would fight Crawford. Not sure if biatch ass Crawford would take the fight though. Thurman isn't a washed up or a blown up lightweight.

Porter and Crawford is the fight to make. Crawford will get no credit for beating Thurman but batting Porter gives him a step up in class. Thurman is shot IMO and the haters would downplay a win for Crawford

Thurman needs at least 2 comeback fights and look sharp in the 2nd one to make him a legit opponent otherwise what's the point

Thurman won't fight crawford. He is scared.

It would happen on the PBC but not on Top Rank because the old fart is too cheap. Bob didn't want to give Shawn Porter $1M to fight Terence Crawford.

Thurman is done as a fighter. Multiple injuries, struggling with a gatekeeper, a loss to Pacquiao..having a baby, family life... Leave the man alone, he has the new life now.

Current Thurman is not credible lol, he is a broken-down fighter coming of surgeries and a loss. Get of a name and look at what's standing in the shoes of that name. A close loss to a top 5 fighter of all time. Thurman is a great win still.

Absolutely. They both need this fight. Crawford needs a credible opponent so people will care again Current Thurman is not credible lol, he is a broken-down fighter coming of surgeries and a loss. Get of a name and look at what's standing in the shoes of that name.
