Comments Thread For: Spence: I Like Real Guys Like Crawford, Not Fakes Like Thurman

[MDPopescu]

Funny thing is...Keith the most proven fighter at 147!!! Not his fault he got injured and that guys hate him enough to not believe he was injured in the first place.

Meanwhile Porter blatantly ducked Spence and Crawford still getting clout off what he did at 140!! We still dont even know if Crawford real deal at 147! But u have people thinking guys scared of Crawford???

... He is... right... (he beat Porter -- whom Brook bodied with ease... and he beat Danny -- who barely beat Peterson at a CW)...

None of these champs are fake. The only knock against Thurman is that he can be annoying at times and he refers to himself in the 3rd person. He's a good guy and gives honest analysis of himself and other fighters. They all want to fight each other, it's just the politics. I think Crawford is the least proven but is supertalented. If he wasn't with Arum he'd have the chance to prove otherwise. No signature fights yet. The fans are losing out and so is Crawford. Thurman will fight whoever and so will Spence. Garcia, God Bless Him he's got cahones.

You think Crawford is the least proven? He's a world champ in all 3 divisions he's fought. The other welterweights are still on their first.

Keith gambled his 0 against Porter and Garcia.

Spence and Crawford gambled nowhere, against nobody.

Crawford went on the road to win his 135 title, then faced Gamboa in what was considered 50/50 and then became undisputed at 140. Who has he avoided in your eyes?

I kinda like Keith's 'You better not duck me thun!!' shit, but Spence has a point that it's kinda pretence... a persona if you like. I think Keith's a bit of a fkn hippie at heart and I'm not sure how well that **** matches with the expectations of the boxing world.

Hippie, maybe. What I think though is he is a Guru who is practicing snake charming.

Are Spence and Crawford gonna be the latest "friends" black fighters who use that to not fight?

Ffs

So only black fighters use that excuse?

I have to tell you, the racism on this site is as bad as any major sports site in the world.

No way this dude would say that on camera from a verified account.

Thurman has taken a page from other fighter money makers. I call it being full of $h1t, but they do make money. Not my thing either.
Thurman has always been good but plays it TOO SAFE for me. Boring style. I like Spence’s style BUT like Canelo, who use to run over people cause he had a huge weight/bulk advantage, it’s A EASY thing to do BUT when you move up in weight and challenge men more your size. IT CHANGES. I think how devistaring Gotti Was at 130. He use to come in fight day at 150+but as a 140-147 pound fighter. He was nothing special

[umop-ap!sdn]

Spence and Crawford are two cowards that seem to be happy they avoided each other while Thurman was inactive.

Thurman is the man in division, until somebody beats him.

I am not even sure Spence and Crawford are better than Ugas.

Member sinse 2014 and 0 rep power??? Troll account. Your comments hold zero weight. Adding to my ignore list so I dont have to read senseless nonsense like this smh.

That's why you can't give it energy. There's a lot of "brave" guys on this board that Pop **** online but would be mute face to face. He's harmless.
