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

[j.razor]

Looks like someone is ducking Crawford “thun”.

NO-BODY ducks bob arum..

I don't know if Spence can beat Thurman, but I do know that Bud would whoop Thurmans ass. Thurman is doing a lot of talking lately. Mofo put the gloves on and fight. Show us what you used to do. You've stayed in 1 division while Bud has climbed 3. And he beat the guy who beat Pac. You don't have the style to beat Bud. You can barely beat the Garcias and Porters of the world. Beat the pfp number 1 mofo lol..

I say Keith, Errol & Bud are all 50/50 fights.

Thurman pre-two year injuries/vacations I think has a style edge vs. Spence and I'd favor slightly depending on how he handled Spence's body attack. Collazo had him hurt bad to the body and Spence is one of the best body attackers in the game. Now I'd back Spence heavily.

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 being ranked in the 147 landscape unfairly under Crawford who has had one fight at 147 versus a C+ fighter, and Spence overrated as.s.

Crawford Vs Spence is called the p4p king fight when it's not even imo a fight for the ww throne, most likely a ww semi final.

I believe Crawford will beat Spence probably makes him miss and pay. Do what brook did but till the end, won't fall apart mentally or physically after 6 rds.

And I'm not sure about the winner of this fight beating Keith to the punch.

How people goes crazy about Spence is beyond me.
He got his a.s handed in ams by the euros each big comp. His most legit win as a pro is brook coming off a beaten to pulp loss 2 divs higher + injury and he didn't had an easy time at all doing so. He doesn't have at all that "p4p American great" pedigree like Oscar, Floyd or Roy, or at least he hasn't shown it yet by any means.

Thurman doing a lot of talking, but also says he's not trying to get that work from neith Errol or Bud until 2020! He's a Sucka MC! GTFOH!

YOU don't like it cuz that's who YOU choose to roll with. I roll with the truth & the truth is that Bud is in the wrong team that talks but doesn't walk. Bud talks & walks but his team doesn't, period. You don't believe me then why are the reporters NOT sticking their mics with the REAL questions in bob's face??

Listen please go away, I couldn’t careless about Crawford. I want everyone to fight everyone. Yes we have network issues, so far Team Crawford have been willing to fight anyone from the other side of the street. It’s the other side of the street that have been making comments that suggest they don’t want to. I cannot sit here and criticise Top rank years ago when they use to do it, then turn a blind eye when other fighter/promoters are doing the same thing now.

Who ranked Keith under Crawford? I don’t see it. Crawford might be a beltholder but he is new at 147, yes Keith was away but his body of work still counts, putting all of that aside they cannot try and undermine Crawford or try to freeze him out due to him not been on the same side of the streets as Keith, Porter or Spence. They should be collecting all those belts. Not try to downplay the other beltholder

[John Locke]

Thurman knows a Spence fight is going to happen, it's around the corner, so he's hyping up Spence more so than Crawford. It's very obvious.

It's a shame that Charlo hid behind his promoter by signing a PBC contract

TheIronMike, I didn't know Charlo was hiding behind PBC contract, that's an interesting concept
