Comments Thread For: Thurman: I Want Amir Khan, Not Stuttering Spence!

[creekrat77]

say what u will but it seems strange how much he trying to avoid the spence fight

Strange? Thurman has had to wait in line and take **** from guys like Paulie because he isn't marketable. Thurman deserves a Maidana or Porter but Spence is stepping down a level. Spence may be "good" but he still has not proven himself in the professional scene

Khan whooped a fresher Collazo, put him down 3 times and did not get hurt in the process.

Keith wants to pick on a guy with a glass chin, sounds like a cherry pick. He should fight Alexander or Algieri first.

yes you are right and khan doesnt hit so hard

This right here. Let spence fight a berto or someone. Just cause Floyd backs him now doesn't mean Thurman HAS to fight him at this time. Thurman deserves khan or porter next. No more no less

Damn, Thurman is really scared of Spence ain't he?

Nothing stopping him from trying to get the Khan fight, but since that may not happen, why not fight the guy that WANTS to fight you? Spence.

Thurman is looking like a clown and a coward.

What's mind-boggling to me is why champ Brook have no intention of fighting Thurman. He's got the tools to beat One Time, he's got combo, clinching skills, he can run, etc. Yet he prefers to fight bums. Boxing is becoming a joke because of these clowns.

Khan vs Thurman needs to happen. Forget Brook. That guy is irrelevant. Let him feast on bums as long as he want. He's an embarrassment to this sport.

it is mainly the POS payweather ruining these guys being they all want to fight payweather so they have to make sure they fight easy guys so they don't lose then wreck their slim chance of fighting payweather. wish he woulda got mangled in the car crash so he could not fight anymore

its about money and recognition.
spence brings neither.

Yeah. Its like the instant you say something negative about a guy, you're a hater lol. No matter if you're actually a fan of the fighter.

Keep it real. His comments don't fit the description you are making of them. Somebody said Spence was the best fighter between 140 -154 and he pointed out that he is not better than Andrade. He pointed out that Andrade had beaten Thurman numerous times in the amateurs (which he should because of his size and amazingly long arms). There was none of the hater talk that you are alluding to. I know how crazy people get on this site but this is definitely not a good example...

Bullshlt. Spence is widely considered one of the biggest talents at WW, and it would be a big money fight.

How much money and recognition did Collazo or Bundu bring?

How much money does talking about a non existent fight with Floyd or Khan bring?

Floyd and Khan aint on the table. Spence is. Spence would be the biggest fight of Thurmans career. FACT.

Thurman is running like a little bltch from Spence. FACT.

That's not even true anymore. How much did Maidana get in the first Mayweather fight? $1 million. Guerrero got the same amount fighting Kamegai. He got $2 million fighting Thurman. Thurman, Broner have been getting more than $1 million fighting scraps.

Wow. You wish someone would have gotten mangled in a car crash? Now that's an excellent example of hater talk right there. Friggin psycho...
