Thurman on Crawford's win over Spence? Laughable. I guess boxers have to yell and scream and make outrageous comments to feel relevant these days. And relevant and Thurman do not belong in the same sentence together.
Thurman is full of it. While I do agree that the Spence Crawford beat was not the Spence of old (he was weight drained wether you believe it or not) I don't believe Thurman beats that Spence either....
and in boxing it ain’t no excuses. He won three titles at that weight and looked good against the lesser champs he faced. Bud is just better. I’m glad Spence took that L as a man and made no excuses. Lots of guys not capable of that, some of which I’m fans of.
It's funny how everyone steady points the finger at PBC as to why these fights never happened. Continously ignoring Crawfords decision to resign with Top Rank until they milked his whole career dry. If not for Spence pushing for the fight, it doesn't happen.
Look at the evidence. The guy goes and agrees to fight Avenyasan during negotiations. Hes been fighting Avenyasan's his whole career. Him winning vs Spence does not erase history. Just means he was better than Spence that night.
None of these fighters were afraid of Crawford. They knew him from the amateurs. They all would hold their own imo. Spence looked like a shell of himself. Have no idea why. The rematch will tell us more.

What?? Crawford won in every way possible. He proved his point against Spence AND about the 5 year long PBC narrative that Bud was ducking fights and PBC fighters simply could not fight non-PBC fighters. Crawford was the victim of promoter wars, but he's come out on top and vindicated his words and actions in the most satisfying way. Neither DSG nor Thurman deserve that fight and Crawford is right to deny them unless Al Haymon wants to pay Crawford superfight money to make those fights.
