Comments Thread For: Thurman Will Not Avoid Brook vs. Spence Winner, Says DiBella

[123tommy]

More money with Pac/Broner/Khan..It's not avoidance,it's money management

[Drew Bundini Br]

Forget that!! THURMAN VS PAC is the fight we want right????????

[O.K.! 2.0]

Thurman just faced two top five WW back to back. Give the man a break! You so call boxing fans think he should fight all the top fighters one after another. There's no money in fighting Spence right now so why risk it? Let Spence build some momentum so when the fight actually comes around, the money will be right for the both of them. You people act like Spence is going to walk through Brook with ease. Spence has the talent to be great but he has only faced C-level fighters in his short career. Brook is one of the best WW on the planet. Thurman has shown he's willing to fight the best so what has he done to say otherwise?

Keith has the momentum on his side right now. Don't lose it with inactivity and soft touches, again.

i added the bold

good call, carrying on that momentum is the key

I notice a lot of people think Broner is a good opponent for the top guys at 147 but I disagree with that assessment. I don't believe Broner can beat any of the top ten WW! As of lately, Broner hasn't shown anything to make you think he could! Broner would loose to Brook, Thurman, Manny, Bradley, Garcia, Vargas, Khan, Porter, Spence, Horn, etc. Broner is not interested in winning fights, only getting a pay check. Broner has no respect for the game & it showed in his last fight not being able to make weight after saying he was a changed man! Broner balloons up in weight between fights & it shows in those YouTube videos. Give someone else a chance who deserves it. Let Broner & Khan face each other!

No reason to think he would. He's never avoided anybody. How many times does he have to say it, 'I got an 0 and I'm not afraid to let it go, if you can beat me, BEAT ME!'

I don't think he'd avoid it, but there's 2 welterweights that he has never shown any enthusiasm at facing, he's at most seemed indifferent about facing them, and that's Spence and Brook... Dunno why,

DiBella used to be one of the most honest men in the sport, before he became Sergio Martinez's bought bitch.

Thurman is a great position right now. He can fight his mandatory in Peterson, the winner of Brook vs Spence, the winner of Porter vs Berto, technically Khan is WBC mandatory but I doubt he wants that work, rematch with Garcia and there's also a longshot with Manny. Great spot to be in for One Time!

he should be aiming for Pac, and then the Brook/Spence winner

i agree that Pac is a long shot

Thurman is the man of the hour i believe he should take one tune up/soft touch because he's earned it and then get back to handling business.
