    Spence is my guy but he needs to quit speaking on Thurman so much especially when he was injured and just coming back off of injury. It's a bad look and he doesn't have to do it anyway he's in the perfect position

        I would love to see Spence fighting Amir Khan. What a fight that would be.

          I think Spence speaking on Thurman is fine & is good actually.

          That fight probably does need to get built up & Spence spitting his name out at every opportunity is only going to make it bigger & make Thurman want it more too. Right now all Thurman is saying is his flute playing smart guy bs that no one wants to hear & acting like this fight can't happen for a year while these two are the clear top two guys in this division today.

          There shouldn't be a division in boxing where the clear top two guys in a division need longer than a year to build up a fight. If it takes longer your guys promoters suck (of which these guys don't even got a promoter so no surprise there) & probably need the fight even MORE so your next 1 vs 2 fight WILL be big.

            when you say "what a fight it would be" are you implying that it'd be competitive? I think Spence demolishes khan in devastating fashion.

              Agree.

              Spence vs Khan would be a one sided KO in 6 or less rounds most likely. Its a name guy so I could see it happening doe if Khan can win a couple fights, but personally I think its a big if Khan can string together a couple wins over decent enough guys to get on Spence's radar.

                Are you serious? Spence would kill Khan inside 5 rounds

                  You're wrong. Thurman specifically said in an interview he would not fight spence in 2018, period. He wants none of it.
