Comments Thread For: Thurman: Spence is '2' at 147, Crawford is Barely a Champion!

[1hourRun]

This is cute, the PBC boys Errol Spence and 'Runtime' talking about welterweight rankings -- how about whos #1. in BOXING? PERIOD.


This is strange, normally elite boxers are lining up to fight the P4P, but these boys are interested in fighting the Shawn Porters.

"...my next fight is going to be a tune-up and a rematch with Porter is a respectable fight. To act like its not a respectable fight is dumb."

So a tune up, then a rematch with Porter? Not if Porter fights Spence next! Maybe this is why Porter started talking crazy ("I'm not sure...") on Monday? Maybe he's going to duck Spence, and wait for Thurman!

Start running that mouth after you actually make it through camp and this tune up.

Its ironic how these so called boxing fans keep repeating what the pbc fighters keep saying about Crawford fighting on ESPN and signed to TR! That's just a lame excuse to dodge Crawford in the ring. Why would fans keep repeating this? Why does it matter what side he's on? Spence is on the same side as Thurman, Garcia, Porter, etc. and can't get a fight with any of those guys. Whatever happen to Spence/Mikey fighting in December? It's not going to happen and it never will because it was just all fake hype! So who will Spence fight I December? Someone just like his last opponent!

My sentiments exactly! These PBC clowns hating on tha P4P!!! The last time T-Raw vacated belts its because he massacred the division!

P4P is comfortable with fighting Horn and Jose Benavidez! If he wanted Mikey Garcia, Danny Garcia, Porter, Spence, and Thurman, he knew who to sign with! He chose Top Rank! It is what it is!

Thurman #1, Spence #2, Porter #3, Garcia #4, Paquioa #5, Crawford #6

I rate Paquioa over Crawford because of resume, Crawford hasn’t beaten anybody at 147, he beat Jeff Horn who robbed Paquioa, Crawford fights for ESPN, so we will never get to see if he is the top dog at 147

I can respect those rankings. Might even call Porter #3 and Garcia #3A. Pac looked great his last fight IMO.

As far as competition, Bud signed with the wrong team

This myth that Toprank does not work with other promoters has been debunked, I'm sorry to tell you. Funny how the P4P #1. has to chase those beneath him, how does that work?

Crawford was on the same side as Pacquiao, and he never got to fight him either!

I rate them like this:

1. Thurman
2. Porter
3. Spence
4. Pacquiao
5. Garcia
6. Crawford

But Thurman must beat someone to prove he is what he is. I rate Porter higher than Spence because Garcia is better win than Brook coming from a big loss.
