Typical boxing scene so call fan now discrediting Thurman. The dude fought his heart out and did a good job and came in strong late. In the rematch, he beat steroid pac and he can beat Errol Spence hype job. So before you go calling him a bum and overhype fighter how bout you give him the credit he deserved.
Don't discredit Thurman

What if i never thought he was that good to begin with?
Is that ok?
Spence is better but not great either.
Manny and Floyd were all time greats. Spence and Thurman good within their own era only.Last edited by AllBoxingAD; 07-21-2019, 07:53 PM.Comment

I always thought he just wasn't that good......holding the devision up for 3 years, talk unlimited trash to all the fighters yet only facing one good one within that time before manny, i'm glad he's out of the way and pushed to the back of the division now.....he can go fight horn or or somebody....he better stay away from ugas, or he might have two losses......Typical boxing scene so call fan now discrediting Thurman.

^ more valid with tank lovers
I see where your coming from though. It was the sparring session that Floyd gained a lot of respect for Spence
To keep it short , more yes than halfway. Because Floyd camp gave the mainstream exposure of “who’s giving Floyd work during sparring?”
Started saying on different occasions that “Spence can ****”. He was trying to sign him probably
Floyd’s REAL main and promotional cosign is obviously Tank, check his IG followers compared to Spence
Floyd was all over Shakur Stevenson too but he signed with Top Rank side note
Spence naturally had a underground buzz. Freddie Roach has been very high on Spence since day 1 Olympic trials blah blah blah. It was also very noted how bad Top Rank wanted SpenceLast edited by Htown-Finest; 07-21-2019, 11:54 PM.Comment

Yup, spence gave floyd a shiner and thats the buzz that got him going. Spence is so sharp, he isnt flashy or unique he just keeps the fundementals, and his distance. Thats what makes him hard to beat. He has so much length that guys cannot get in on him because he knows how to keep the distance always.^ more valid with tank lovers

The only thing is he has bug eyes. One of them looks lazy like it was already detached before. I notice those type of eyes are not good for boxing, and i think this is why he has such a sharp mental focus to avoid getting hit. He knows he could get a detach retina or he knows his chin is not good. This why he keeps the distance game on point and uses his reach well. In the mikey garcia fight he reacted strange to getting caught, like it scared him and kept his stance sharp and moved back to keep the distance.
Spence is good, but only as long as he can make weight, if he goes up to his natural weight of 160 i think he will get roughed up bad, a slow robotic tired kell brook gave spence hell.
I still thin bud crawford style is the cream of the crop he beats everyone including spence and pacquiao.Comment

There hasn't been anyone I've seen discrediting Thurman. I did watch Teddy Atlas say Manny picked Thurman because he looked bad against Lopez, which is just Teddy being honest.Comment
