Thurman can forget about fighting Spence or Crawford. He alienated Spence in the past. Thurman is not a busy fighter so he isn't very relevant. I think Thurman needs to fight Boots to climb back up in the rankings. Otherwise he will become a division gatekeeper.

Now that doesn't seem like a very bad idea!

I disagree. Virgil ain't calling for Bud...Thurman is. Gimme the guy that wants the fight over the guy that said he does and then backtracked. I'd l I've to see Virgil vs Boots though.

You won't see that until it's a title fight! I want Thurman to go through a top WW b4 getting a title shot! Barrios was a 1st time WW! Thurman needs to show me more! Avanesyan, Ortiz Jr., or Stanionis! Choose your fate!

[champion4ever]

I'm not fully convinced that Thurman would fight Stanionis, who just won the secondary WBA title. Stop marinating Spence/Crawford and just pull the trigger on it!

He won't. The only thing he wants is money. These young hungry lions doesn't interest him because they are not quite as established as the marquee names of the division.

Fight Stanionis for that other WBA Belt or something

the focus is on Spence vs Crawford!

Ortiz is ranked number 1 he deserves the fight not missing in action Thurman

[whatismyname]

No, let the champs fight. Thurman should do Ortiz

[The tucker]

Hearing Crawford may take a tune up which is fine if he does. Crawford vs Thurman or Boots vs Thurman are good fights.

Crawford last fought in November and Spence hasn’t fought since January last year since before he fought ugas. No need for a tune up I say they pretty even.

No Keef. You avoided Spence and now you’re old and irrelevant and begging for a payday. Karmas a *****. Fight Ennis or Ortiz and if you win karma may be nice to you

[Lefty0616]

Crawford's next call should be to Spence. Any other opponent will be unacceptable.
