If Skills Pay The Bills why does everybody think Spence beats Thurman

[Sheldon312]

What makes you think he can KO Brook sooner? Thurman didn't KO Garcia, wasn't even close to. Come on, don't be ******.

Thurman is good, maybe better in skills, but Spence is good as well and has more power I think.

I get your point though.

I watch Spence and he seems to be good but he doesn't have fast feet he tends to move straight back and his combinations and hand speed seems to be quite overrated.

I completely disagree. Thurmans good, spence will be special. I think spence better in every measurable aspect including power. Better fighter in every way. If that body shot from Collazo almost had Thurman take a knee, that spence body shot gonna take his soul. Soto Karrass had him hurt to and he's not a big puncher either.

This term is being thrown around too much these days especially when it pertains to Spence, Crawford, Loma. But ask yourself if you places them in any other era would they be seen as great as they are today

I agree. Thurman is a very, very good fighter -- but I don't think he's special. Spence though on the other hand does appear to be special.

I hate how people are overlooking Thurman. Thinking about all the times he been hurt, he has proved that he knows how to win under adversity. I think this fight is 50/50 with slight edge to Spence

Real Answer: Floyd said that Thurman wouldn't fight Spence, and to a lot of people Floyd is god. Before floyd mentioned spence Thurman was seen in high standing with anybody, and not seen as a ducker. They say Spence wins because Floyd said he would. Thurman is a better boxer and is more talented in my opinion.

[DuckAdonis]

Thurman is more skilled, spence has more power

[FinitoxDinamita]

Thurman is very overrated, he is far from great.

I never saw the appeal in this guy. Thurman isnt elite and Spence would outclass him bigtime.

[stuff jones]

Spence is a natural 154 lber. Thurman a natural 147 lber.

[LetOutTheCage]

Thurman is more talented imo and I favour him to beat Spence if they ever fight

[KayDub]

When they fight my money is on Thurman.
