    Was Uncle Al protecting Errol Spence from Keith 'One Time' Thurman for all these years?

    Did Al and the PBC matchmakers know and see something the rest of you didn't?

      Can't protect a person from someone who isn't fighting in the first place. Dude is horribly inactive

        Everyone else didn't see it but ive been on here saying Spence ducking Thurman for years. People bring up Thurman not giving Spence a fight? That is diffhe was fighting bigger opponents porter and garcia. Spence hadn't been proven to that level yet. Difference with Spence ducking Thurman is Spence is was ducking a champ then ex unified champ. Thurman was getting big fights instead of an upcoming fighter not that big yet.

        i think Haymon wanted thurman spence fight this year. Spence didn't want it is what finally made the Bud fight. Once wbc ordered it and pbc wanted it, spence then finally got back to the table properly to fught Bud thats how much he didnt want to fight Thurman

          Nah Thurman is a nice matchup for Spence. Thurman ain’t standing up to those body shots.

              Thurman would've clowned Spence.


              Spence has very very slow feet. his blackness fooled you all. he has a slow mexican style.

                It was so weird how they overrated him in the rankings back then.

                Thurman in 2016 beat Porter
                While Spence's best win at that time was Chris Algieri

                And some of the rankings even got him ahead of Bradley who on paper, beat TWO hall of famers!!

                Imagine calling out Pacquiao.
                then you were shocked that he accepts.
                errol sparring leaked and looked horrible.
                daddy haymon came in and did the switcheroo to save his @$$

                PBC is for babies

                    Spence is a bad style match-up for Thurman, in my opinion. However, I do believe Thurman was dynamic enough to pull off an upset victory.
