Depends on where Thurman is at the moment, but the Thurman that fought Porter and the like would have beat Spence. Bit by bit we are moving into reality, I still remember the good ole’ days when Spence had Tommy Hearns-esque power. I wonder if people still think he’s the master counter-puncher that will walk everyone (this was mainly pertaining to Porter and Pacquiao) into a knock out punch. People are recognizing his lacking defense. Apparently no one noticed vs Mikey where he’s getting hit with his head up in the air by a welterweight that was slower than some heavyweights, he made a really inaccurate Porter look a lot more accurate than usual too.
Does anyone else think Thurman beats Spence?

These days Im not sure Keith beats some guys he already beat. Bud beats him. Errol beats him. I think Shawn beats him in a rematch. I think Ugas is gonna be tricky for him & is likely 50/50ish.
Keith needs to call out Broner. Or Mikey. I think he can still beat Mikey although I might be biased off of that trash ass Errol fight Mikey had.Comment

if thurman can take those body shots the way porter did for 12 rounds then yeah he may win, I dont see him being able too... but spence fights different every fight so this is a hard fight to gage it allComment

I don’t think Thurman can take the body shots. Porter’s style is the blueprint for beating Spence. Thurman’s footwork would help and he is a sharp counter puncher, but throwing one punch at a time at Spence won’t get it done. This is why I think Crawford can beat Spence. Same size, same power, but a more complete fighter who can box, scrap, adjust and throw combinations.Comment

I would say a toss up. I could definitely see Thurman beating Spence without surprise and vice versaComment

Keith is irrelevant to Spence.
Let's start off with that.
Can Keith beat Spence? Sure. It's possible. Will he? I doubt it. Spence is smarter and more skilled with more tools for victory. But anything can happen.
A better question is can Keith beat Crawford? Because that's the only fight that he could possibly make to get himself relevant again. Otherwise, he's not in the title picture anymore.Comment
