Comments Thread For: Keith Thurman Wants Crawford Fight So Winner Could Face Spence: 'I Just Hope I Get The Call'

[MeanestNiceGuy]

These guys acting like Thurman wouldn't be the best fighter either has faced.

Spence vs Crawford would be cool, but I'm not holding my breath on that.

*Excuse the length, but follow me*

Oh, they forget so quickly, don't they? And you're right....Thurman would be the best fight for both guys. These Spence fans are in a stupor and refuse to believe facts. Spence's best win is against Porter...the same guy that Crawford stopped. Porter hadn't lost since he fought Spence, whom some believe should've walked away with a close decision.

Kell Brook? Golovkin beat him up just 8 months prior to Spence facing him....this man had to get orbital bone surgery and all. People also act like Brook wasn't struggling to make 147 back then, though he was still champion. Brook hadn't lost a fight in what, 3 years before facing Crawford? So, if a Brook win is good enough for Spence, then it should be good enough for Crawford.

Keith Thurman lost what, one fight? Against Pacquiao. 3 years ago. Why are people still holding that against him as though he's some bum? Spence can be out of the sport for over a year....as unified champion...talking **** on social media....injured and all (from drunk driving)...and people praised him. Thurman nurses injuries while unified champion...he's considered a "duck."

How many times has Spence fought since 2017 after becoming champion and unifying? 6 times in 5 years. Thurman has fought 7 times since 2015 (6 of those were title fights). They both became unified champions but Spence just happens to have one more belt than Thurman had during his reign and they've fought roughly the same amount of fights as champions.

Again, people forget so quickly. And the truth is, a Thurman fight only strengthens Crawford's resume at this point since Spence and his goofy fans have written off Thurman as a form of "get back," though Spence denied it. That's exactly what's happening- his fans are allowing him to duck a once-beaten and former unified Welterweight champion. Pathetic.

Think about it...if, let's say Bootz gets in there against Keith...what would the boxing world be saying? "He (Boots) is facing the once-beaten, former UNIFIED Welterweight, Keith "One Time" Thurman!" It would be SUCH a big deal for Ennis....but why not Spence? Would you rather him face the O'Campos of the world, or a former champion with a stellar record?

Stay out of it Keef everyone wants to see Bud vs Spence it has to happen now

Ever since Floyd retired there has never been a clear number 1 at Welterweight it's actually been stagnant for years with (no disrespect) Porter and Brook passing on the belts. When Thurman fought Garcia it should have kicked it all off him facing Spence, then the winner facing Crawford but its been a mess since then Thurman injured for years, Spence crash and eye etc Pac winning a belt and holding it up

Make the fight

Crawford hasn't established he brings enough market value to warrant a 50-50 situation with Spence right now, but he's also signaled he's not willing to accept less than 50-50.

Dismiss it all you want - Crawford-Thurman gets made if Crawford's not willing to accept a 35%-40% split situation with Spence.

Spence has done All the Heavy Lifting.
He deserves No Less than 60% of the purse

The 123 Abc club are Errolsexual fanboy girls. 55/45 to Crawford.

Thurman priced himself out of this fight,most likely purposely
