Comments Thread For: Thurman Under Impression He's Backup Option If Spence-Crawford Deal Falls Apart

[rickJen]

They're about to announce that Spence-Crawford is getting closer. That's about it. As far as Tank vs Thurman, what weight are you talking? The rest of Thurman's career is going to be fought at 147 or 154. He's not getting down to 140.

I assumed it would be at 147. TMT CEO Ellerbe is confident Davis would KHTFO.

Leonard Ellerbe: I Can Make Gervonta Davis vs Keith Thurman in Two Seconds. Thurman Can Fight His Ass Off, But Tanks Knocks Him TF Out

If the $ right/contract - If the $ right/contract - If the $ right/contract - If the $ right/contract ….can “Run time” boring ass “fight for a decision” Thurman say anything else these days?

Be certain of one thing. Haymon and spence are going to kill the Crawford fight which was the plan all along. They rigged Sulaiman to make Keef the mandatory for Spence. Anyone with common sense and knowing Haymon's historic fear of Crawford, know what the secret plan is. Crawford is getting played like a fool and wasting valuable months left in his prime.

Spence/Crawford is about to be announced, so Thurman is late once again just like in the Conor Benn story.

One Time should be calling out Tank Davis. That fight can be made in 2 seconds. Ask Leonard Ellerbe.

Tank’s way too small for WW

What Spence/Crawford deal?

Please don't blow it fellas

Terence Duckford is going to screw things up with his entitlement attitude. Dumbass

Sounds like Keith is gonna be the new Khan. Khan was the back up plan on about 8 Mayweather fights and 6 Pacman fights.

If anyone is killing the fight it's Crawford by pricing himself out. He didn't learn from Devin Haney to accept B-side status in return for the opportunity to get a hugely important win.

But let's wait and see. Hopefully they come to an agreement. It has to happen soon so they can promote this properly, with press conferences in LA/Dallas-Ft.Worth/Chicago/NYC. Then again PBC always drops the ball when it comes to promoting so they probably won't even bother to do that.

Thurman came out of the blocks speaking like a pro-wrestler. Good fighter but not EEEElite. Crawford looked uncomfortable at times against Porter, think Spence will give him alot of trouble. True 50/50, like razor close. Unlike the purse split.

Crawford is no. 1 pound for pound, he's the A side or at the very least co A side. Malignaggi claimed years ago, like a big expert KNOW IT ALL, that there is always an A and B side to all fights, I challenged him on that on twitter and said no, sometimes there is a co A side, such as Ali Frazier, Ali Foreman, Leonard Duran, Hearns Leonard, Hagler Leonard, Lewis Tyson, Lewis Holy, etc. If you cant see Spence and haymon are using purse split to duck the fight you're a dolt. Crawford vs Spence is absolutely a co A side fight. Malignaggi was embarrassed that a boxing fan had to correct him on the realities of boxing business. Malignaggi went silent and did not try to dispute the co A side assertion.
