Comments Thread For: Spence Says Thurman May Be Toughest Foe, Unsure on Crawford

[Nightfall]

If they both are undefeated when they run into each other it's going o be classic. I will be there.

Thurman and Spence are both HUGE Welterweights. Easily fight over 160+ on fightnight

Thurman isn't that big. I used to train with him and have sparred him a couple of times.

Granted, I was a 6' 140lber, so you're talking to a guy who actually was big for his weight.

If Spence vs. Thurman happens it won't be until late next year ...Thurman doesn't even have a fight schedule as far as a cherry-picked opponent for his first one back ...Crawford should handle Horn with very little problems as long as he doesn't get caught in some of those clenches where her horn uses his head I see a stoppage around around 8 with Crawford the winner.

6' 140lbs??? Holy sht!!! Must spend every day at the gym amd eating rice cakes and fiber bars.

Ive seen Thurmans same day weight and he was around 165 and that was a few years ago.

Vargas is far from a cherry pick after a long layoff and injury.

Naw. Thurman’s scary azz runs too much and doesnt have the workrate to produce a classic fight against anybody.

All these guys are undefeted so far, so lets see them fighting each other.

With everyone back at 147, with Mayweather and Pacman gone, I expect everyone to fight each other. The only sad bit might be Crawford and Arum.

Pacquiao hasn't gone anywhere. His only legitimate losses since 2005 are to Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Juan Manuel Marquez. Sure he's not the same fighter he was 10 years ago, but Crawford-Pacquiao would still be a huge fight, especially for ESPN.

The division is pretty lacklustre at the minute

Inactive Thurman + Porter

Garcia, who has shown to be a level under Thurman, who himself hasn’t proven a lot yet

Spence and Crawford. Spence has only one noteworthy win, and Crawford hasn’t even fought at the weight. Pacquiao is at the very end of his career

No idea why people claim Welterweight is some stacked division. The top of it is fairly weak
