    I’d confidently predict he stops Thurman but who knows until they fight.

      Spence never had a chin, that's why he feasted on little guys moving up for so long.
      Spence has eaten clean shots off Brook, Porter, Danny. His chin is solid. I think he’d stop Thurman.

        How many buys do you think the rematch does? Like 500k at most I reckon, the intrigue is no longer there after how one sided the fight was.

        Spence vs Thurman probably does 250-350k and Spence will be getting the lions share of the split.
        Thurmans going to want like 10 million dollars that he doesn’t deserve and he hasn’t fought in years. So what ever Crawford Spence rematch does it has to do more than that. And if I were Spence I wouldn’t care about any of that crap because I have a contract. Everyone else can worry about selling the fight. At 33 going on 43 there’s no guarantee Crawford would fight him down the line. I would cash in now or retire. Maybe go down to Australia and do a big stadium fight against Tim Tszyu and get a bag that way.

            Thurman ain’t getting anywhere near that. He only got $2.5m against Pacquiao and that’s when he had a belt and 0 to sell.

            Spence-Crawford did around 650k buys per the reports, so the rematch does what? 500k max? Meanwhile Spence has generally done around 300k buys even against lesser names like Ugas, the Thurman fight likely hits that number. It’s by far the better business move.

            Spence looking impressive up at 154 helps sell the rematch too because nobody with a brain could believe Spence has any chance in that rematch after he was utterly dominated by Crawford.

              I don't think the rematch happens at all if it doesn't happen next. Crawford will, or at least should, be seeking out either Charlo or the Tszyu/Mendoza winner.
