Comments Thread For: Keith Thurman: Two Fights - Then I'm Ready For Errol Spence!

[Combat Talk Radio]

Marinating is the new ducking. Thurmans injury is healed, he doesnt need a full year to get ready for spence.

Just let it go man. People will do everything to excuse Thurman and others for treating fights like rotisserie chicken: marinate it and spin it all day.

I understand one fight, but not two. Why? Because if Thurman is healthy enough to face Shawn Porter, then he's healthy enough for Errol Spence Jr.! My only concern is whether Thurman would be stripped if he doesn't face Porter or Garcia. If the WBC/WBA will not allow Thurman to face Spence Jr. in a unification, then I'll give Thurman a pass. However, if they don't have a problem with it, then I have a problem with Thurman! That being said, SALUTE to Lamont Peterson, for dropping a belt for a chance to be GREAT!

Excellent point!

Yes yes, some nerd on the internet definitely knows what he needs. He should definitely be taking advice from you. Go straight into the toughest fight of his entire life with an untested arm after a major injury, surgery, and very long layoff. You're right. The best thing for his career is definitely to go immediately into the toughest fight possible in the division.

Makes sense, Thurman and Spence both sign their contracts now and each fight tune up fights, mandatory fights against number one contenders and a easy tune up, then fight in 2019, hell put both on the same fight card and have it on PPV. Showtime could put Thurman vs Spence along with Wilder vs Joshua on the same PPV, even if they fight in different locations, Showtime has done this before and this would sell crazy PPV and make crazy money, if you could add Tyson furry and Garcia on this card, might just brake that Floyd record, maybe.

Thurman is weak to the body. Spence is going to stop him before the 10th.

Surely they put a unification of the belts ahead of a mando. Plus why need 2 tune-ups?? I believe Thurman knows that Spence is the True w/w king and wants to hang on to his belts as long as he can before Spence takes them from him.

If this fight happens, it's definitely not going 12.

He just said what everyone already knows: Spence is the best welter in the world.

You actually think he's going to fight Spence in 2019?

2019 is the year being mentioned in previous interviews by ppl like Espinoza, Thurman ect when asked for a rough idea of a potential match up so I am basing it on that

Im sorry I didn't realise you are Thurmans promoter and know when he will fight Spence maybe you could drop us some inside info?
