Comments Thread For: Thurman: I'm No. 1 at 147, Spence is 2 - No Credit For Crawford!

He resigned a Top Rank/ESPN contract knowing the other 3 champions fought on showtime.

Am I missing something big guy?

And?? You gonna tell me you feel he's ducking just cause someone threw him a huge guranteed contract and he signed it??
At the end of the day boxing is called prizefighting for a reason.
Boxers fight for the prize above everything else,...
And that prize is money!
So you can't hate on a man for going where the money is at!
IDK how old you are or how long you've been watching boxing for but there's been hundreds if not thousands of unification bouts between fighters that were aligned with different promoters and at the end of the day if two fighters really wanna fight each other then the fight will happen regardless of who's promoting them....
Believe that youngster!

What you're missing is that his Top Rank contract still had two years to run.

Thurman walked the talk more than anybody else at 147 in current boxing, yet is called the big mouth. Spence and Crawford are fighting mismatches and seem glad not fighting each others while Thurman has been injured.

Say what you want about Thurman but he's the only one who beat 2 primes elite guys at 147.


Crawford has beaten none, Spence has beaten one coming off a violent tko loss + injury and long lay off.

So I know some will say Garcia and porter are not elite but they are, they are top 5 in one of the best division in boxing.

In terms of results he's right with his ranking.

Sad thing is Thurman is a very respectable fighters, but since bsc became a racist platform, I believe Thurman getting bashed for being too white for some and too black for others.

Like I said I have no issues with Keith as number 1, am a big fan of his and couldn’t careless about race. I want boxers in this sport to talk the talk and walk the walk. Don’t try and “Freeze” someone out because he is on the other side of the street. It’s all great trying to downplay Crawford but it does nothing for anyone’s credibility.

Thurman is not guilty that Crawford and Spence avoid each other. It would be a huge fight during Thurman`s layoff.

Keith beats Crawford in my opinion

And he's right Spence vs Crawford is a great fight but Spence or Crawford vs Thurman are even greater.

'Sometime' should just fight again. Crawford stopped the guy that beat Manny so Thurman has to recgonise. Fact.

BWaHaahaHA!!

I can't wait, we'll see how much Thurman has to say after Lopez is done with him!

How long of a contract did he have? He originally signed in 2011.

It's fact. Stopped the-then #1 Welterweight in the World, #5 P4P.

Crawford easily has the best win of the division.
