      Who predicted this? Who? Was it...........IT WAS ME MOTHERFUCKER! There was NO WAY that Thurman would fight a fighter of Vargas' caliber coming off of a 14 month layoff and elbow surgery.

        I swear, if Thurman, Porter and Garcia duck Spence after Ocampo. I won't watch any of those three fight until they at least somewhat be willing to entertain a Spence fight.
        I won't even watch Porter vs Garcia until then. Hopefully others fill the same way. What happened to fighters wanting belts or to beat the best. I think I'm more disappointed in Porter and Garcia for being afraid to mention Spence. Thurman has been nervous for years. Which is wierd because thats a close fight 52-48 Spence to me. I think Porter and Garcia (their dads) knows their style is made for Spence but Thurman can move and punch. I just can't get out of my head, Thurman being bothered by body shots. Step up fellas!

        I actually don't dislike any of the ww's. I just want all possible combinations of the best fighting the best and rematches, but rematches last though! Spence is the opposite of Khan at ww. He calls guys out and is actually willing to fight them.

          I feel you but Thurman v Spence is more like 70/30 in favor of Spence lol

              At the pace he's going once Thurman loses his title I'll give no f#cks about what he does & I can't say I give much of a f#ck now outside of him fighting & losing to Spence so he'll be out of the way of stopping the big fight in the division. And maybe most importantly so he'll be out of play for future potential big fights vs Crawford or others who come along as he'll be saying nah can't fight Bud in 2020 if he were to beat Spence in 2019 I bet.

              F#cking flute playing mfer!

              This.........

                All you guys can say WTF you want!
                Yeah it's a shame Garcia, Thurman, and Porter won't fight Spence but as soon as they fight some cab driver you'll be sitting in front of your TV watching the fight.
                I know I will.... 😄😆
                I love watching boxing and I wanna see the best fight the best like you guys but I'll watch pretty much any fight.

                  he obviously is too risky for a tune up fight for keith or else hed be fighting him.. why else wouldnt he fight him? he thinks its too much of a risk plain and simple

                      well there u go.. like i said vargas is too much of a risk to thurman for his first fight back since his injury. aaron herrera is a much better tune up fight for him.
