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

[factsarenice]

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.

The truth is that Thurman will watch Mikey for weakness and if he Mikey exposes something that Thurman can use the fight is on. Crawford is a tougher nut to crack for Thurman. Aside from power, everything Keith can do Crawford does better.

"Lisp in ebonics around brothers" is real & genuine but the "avg local newscaster on tv" is what it always is on tv, FAKE. Keith keeps it 100 therefore Keith is real.

Keith is a herb. Period. Time will confirm 97% of the people in this forum correct.

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

Crawford easily has the best win of the division.

Quit it you sound ridicolous

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

I agree with you, they're 50/50 fights. The difference is that Both would fight Keith tomorrow and Keith is far more reluctant to fight either Spence or Crawford.

In the past Keith took a beating from another tall, long puncher/ boxer in Bo Bo and it seems like that beating is still in the back of his mind. Spence and Andrade are similar in that way. Keith normally fights well with come forward fighters but has trouble with slick boxers. Crawford is arguably a better boxer than either Keith or Spence have ever fought.

If Crawford is nothing Keith would jump on a career high 5 mil payday for that nothing, easy fight.

But he doesn't...why?

[davefromvancouv]

Like with any other division, when Thurman, Spence and Porter are confident they can beat him, they'll step up and fight him. Until then, they see Crawford as the best of the division.

Hardly a 'beating', he was outpointed. Look at the difference in size tho, not to mention Andrade is nothing like The Truth, other than his stance.

Thurman spent years sparring Winky, has sparred Korobov also, fought Andrade a bunch of times, he's got a lot of high level xp with southpaws.

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.

Listen I will not go away when b.s. is being spewed. top rank WON'T make the fights You just WANT to believe top rank will but when you keep repeating the same thing over, over & over I'm NOT going to believe top rank, PERIOD. You will though....LMMFAO! You acting gullible
