Garcia would be the best win on Crawford's resume

Originally posted by Clegg View PostThurman clearly does not have a great resume. Pac was an ATG, but was far far past his prime and didn't win another fight in his career. Garcia and Porter are the 2 notable wins, that's pretty far from greatness.
Thurman could have had a way better career wasted his own career, though injuries played a part he still could have been more active than he has been. The problem with these fighters Spence Bud Thurman etc when they get to that level they only really want to fight if it's a sizeable payday. Bud isn't exactly an active fighter either. They're all part timers lucky to even see them fight once a year

Further demonstrates the pro-US bias in the sport. The Ring still has Spence P4P #8.dan-b likes this.

It saddens me because I truly believe Thurman could have beat Tim Tzuyu tonight and put his name right back at the top tier. Now his name fades back to obscurity and Spence attempts to snatch the opportunity. I hope he gets his moment.
It's sad for sure, but it might be time to move on.
There's nobody to blame, Keith has been prone to injury for a long time. He has a lot of mileage on him, he's been fighting since he was 7 years old.
I hope he can turn it back one more time, but I'm not really holding my breath at this point. It sucks but it is what it is.

Yet you all over hype Spence and he's still in Rings p4p. Thurman beat Garcia and Porter before him. His 1 loss is the Manny fight, and it was a close fight Manny started of the first half better.

I don't fanboy for anybody, especially not Spence whose fans spent years praising him for delaying the Crawford fight and then claimed he was past prime as an excuse after he got dominated. Crawford's career could've been better, he should be more active and against better opposition. But whatever his flaws, he's achieved more than Thurman or Garcia.

Garcia ducked Postol, who Crawford dominated. Garcia's best win is decision over Lucas M, who Postol knocked out. Crawford just beat Spence, who beat Garcia. Garcia has no big wins at 147.
imagine having Postal as the best win on your resume LMFAO
Like I said, Crawfish is a JOKE
