      The mentioned Spence and he said Spence isn't the man at 147 which is technically true. He said if and when Spence becomes the man there then he'll fight him too.

          Anyone notice that he ducked calling out Spence. He would rather call out a fighter who is sidelined with an injury as oppose to a young hungry fighter(and champion at 147 pounds)who is currently without a dance partner

            I can see him beating up Thurman. Errol Spence is the guy to see at 147.

                Unlike Most..........

                Let's be real here.... If asked about another boxer in an interview, is he suppose to say no and he's scared? TC is just doing and saying exactly what most would say. But lets not forget, Arum is the holdup here. Its the same as Jeff Horn calling out Spence. Arum is not letting it happen. So you can talk all much stuff as you want because its not happening, and I'm sure the boxers know it just as we do. TC hasn't fought anyone that even better top any top 5 WW. TC needs to prove himself in at least 2 fights before he even gets a chance at the belts.
                Unlike most, TBC understands that he can ask or demand the big fights because just like how Charlo moved up and was given a title eliminator bout right away and he was not even an undisputed champion. I think TBC has a plan. Let's see if he's allowed to execute said plan.

The GOAT SRR started out as a LW when LW meant 135 day of fight, 147 day of fight, 160 day of fight; was he always the bigger man? Today LW's weigh 150+ day of fight. It's has and always will be the size of the fight in the dog not the size of he dog.
                  Ok, look at Pernell vs Oscar. Now, Pernell was a better fighter but he lost to Oscar like, who imo, won clearly. You want to know why? It's because Oscar was naturally bigger than Pernell. Tito lost to Bernard and Roy. Pac lost to Floyd. Kell Brook lost to GGG. The disparity I'm skill between Thurman, Crawford, and Spence isn't that great to where you can say Crawford will beat both without a doubt. Of anything, he is the slight under dog since Those guys are bigger, stronger, and they pack a lot more pop compared to those guys from 135 to 140. And let's not talk about resume
