    Thurman holding up the division.
    WBO being the Top Rank belt.


    Gonna be hard to do and I don't think he'll be making 147 for long.

      He's not moving up to 154 before he attempts to unify at 147. The bigger money fights are at WW anyway. There's literally 2 names for him at 154, and only one has a belt right now.

        He’ll take another L to castaño at 154... stay at 147 little guy. Where you got the size advantage over everybody.

          Couldn't agree more! A very rare breed indeed.

              Thurman needs to be stripped and the belts need to be up for grabs

                the belt orgs are too greedy to let that happen - unless Spence would become as big as Floyd money-wise. Even then the IBF is the fly in the ointment with their bs mandatories based of useless rankings

                  Golovkin is the same as all the others - money first, legacy second. Which I get entirely but don't be hypocritical.

                  GGG would need to fight 5 Ramirez or 5 Charlo or 10 Dereyevchenko to make the same money as one Canelo rematch. Guess which one he wants to fight. If he was 26 and not 36 I would call bs.

                    Becoming undisputed would happen more often without ducking and politics within the sport.

                    Thurman is clearly waiting for Spence to move up to crawl back from his hole. If the ABC orgs had integrity they would strip him. Injury or not nobody should be allowed to clog up a division. Period.

                    The WBO belt is even more out of reach. That's Arum's in house strap. Good luck getting that.

                    Unfortunately Spence becoming undisputed champ is a pipe dream in this climate.

                    Hurd is a few fights away from moving up to 160 for good. I hope Spence moves up before that happens. Hurd / Spence will be one for the ages. Those two styles will be like trains colliding. That fight is more intriguing to me than any matchup for Spence at 147.

                    He already said he could move up if Brook gets a title but he should be targeting Hurd instead. Brook is a few punches away from blindness.

                      That wasn't my point. Some poster asked "Why don't Spence fight GGG right now, he's big enough?" I find it incredible that someone would ask Spence to go from 147 to 160, but they won't ask GGG to go from 160 to 168!
