Comments Thread For: Crawford Says Thurman Was Never Serious About Fighting Him: 'We Don't Believe You, Keith'

[Cyborg Fangerloo]

I am going to get Crawford to manage all of my business transactions when I really need to get something done. He sure is a heck of a talent as a deal closer.

Boots did call out both Bud and Spence. Bud ran off to fight a guy nobody cares for or knows.
Bud fought Spence left over Porter. That’s a fact.

How did Crawford have an opponent, a site, a date and a “$10 Million” pay day as soon as he ended negotiations with Spence? It means Crawford had zero plans of facing Spence and was working on a different plan.

Lastly, let’s have a look at Bud’s resume at 147, shall we?;

1. Benavidez
2. Kavaliauskas
3. Khan
4. Brook
5. Porter &
6. Avanesyan

Mosley, Cotto and even Hatton have better resumes.

You forgot the guy that beat the legend Manny PAC, Jeff Horn… Bud’s 1st fight at 147, Bud manhandled the bully.. I guess Bud really is missing resume fights with lil lightweight Mikey Garcia, cherry picker Danny G, Chris Algieri, Carlos Ocampo, oh and the guy with 4 losses, Ugas… Impressive huh??
Bud knew in October Spence wasn’t fighting him… no way Spence can make weight at 185# in Oct.. seen any video or pics lately of Spence?? Thought so-

He has a point but bottom line is all these guys are slightly past their primes and haven't fought yet.

You know what is disappointing, heading Spence fans claim they wanted to see the fight already. Listen up idiots, the fight was not happening this year. Not because of Bud, but due to PBC. Mayweather said months ago, that the fight wasn't happening anytime soon. He also stated that he would know first. Pay attention. Errol Spence wouldn't even past drug testing for several months, we seen the video. He was doped up.

45% think spence No1 WW. 45% think bud no1 ww. 10% think Thurman No1 ww.
Noones fought each other so we don't know. Thurman might actually be no1

I'll agree that right now, Thurman might well be no one...

The sad thing is you really believe that, even after all the evidence against Crawford. Anybody that did what he did, out in the open and behind everyone's back, would be raked over the coals. I wanted the undisputed fight to be already over with and celebrating whoever won because I used to like both, but Bud took a massive shxt on everyone involved to get an easy fight for a big check, instead of behaving like a true champion. He said fxck legacy, gimme this check, and my dxck holders will defend me. You are a part of his damage control team; pom poms, lies, vaseline and all.

Prime example of a Spence D--k Sucker right here.

Damage control team? Haha if you say so...

I want to see the best fights and I call s--t how I see it.

Yeah,he could've took on a tougher fight meanwhile- I agree with that. But when negotiations have been dragged out for several months, and it became apparent the fight wouldn't happen this year-Was Crawford supposed to sit around and not fight the whole year?

There's tons of evidence that Spence/his Handlers don't want the fight. But Why waste my time going through it all with someone as foolish as you?

I like Thurman, but I think he'd get badly hurt agàinst Crawford, if they ever fought.

[Casualfanboy]

Thurman’s momentum was derailed years ago by a car accident. If not for that, all these fights would have likely happened. And when you’re making a pay check elsewhere, it’s pretty easy to demand top dollar for getting punched in the face.

Thurman is part of the PBC protection plan. Crawford couldn't get the fights from across the street, they froze him out. In Thurman's defense, he did successfully win/defend his titles against two of the top welters in the division...D. Garcia and Porter. He also fought Pacquiao, something Crawford never did while they were both with Top Rank. Manny's willingness to fight both Thurman and Spence suggests it wasn't Manny ducking Crawford.
