Comments Thread For: Thurman: I'll Be Back At The Top Of Sport; Not Going Nowhere

[Removed Now]

I still don't believe in Crawford. The welterweight division still doesn't have a clear #1. If Keith would had won he would be #1. Now that he lost. It's up in the air between Spence and Manny. I will never give Crawford credit until he beats a legit 147lb fighter. I am dead serious.

If Porter does the upset then it is very wide open.

I didn't like Keith before the fight but have a bit of respect for him after the fact he's conducted himself very well in defeat and all the talk before the fight was just that talk he clearly respects Pac.

This is why I don’t care if guys have loses. I enjoyed this fight WAY more than Thurman’s fights with Porter and Garcia.

Same with PAC! I’ll remember his fights way more than Floyd’s.

Correct me if I am wrong but Thurman had to beat Julio Diaz back in 2014 to become interim champ. he was later promoted to a regular champ ( Mayweather was a super champ), and Thurman was promoted to a super champ before unification fight with Danny Garcia.

Well, things could be much more difficult for him now. Now you must beat one of 4 aces to become a world champ. Spence will probably take WBC strap from Porter and make things even more difficult for Thurman.

You will have to beat Spence/Pacquiao/Crawford to become a world champ again, Keith.

Thurman is now ready to rumble with Crawford.

If you truly believe Thurman would fight Crawford, you're in La La land...

[Curtis2]

Was Crawford at the fight?

All the major players at 147 was in attendance.

Why you not showing up at these events?

Fck is wrong with you Bud?!

Crawford the only real Major Player @ 147!! He ain't chasing sparring level 147's

[Manic Shot]

I'm curious on Thurman's suspension, any news on that!

[KnickTillDeaTh]

Fight was exciting and close enough for a rematch. In the end, that will be determined by PPV numbers. If this fight did north of 800k, it dramatically increases the likelihood of a rematch. No way Fox/PBC going to let that big money get away. Though I dont think Pac will get in with Thurman again. Props to Pac, but Thurman's body work took its toll on Pac, and he looked physically dejected after the fight. Some will say it's just his age, but you can watch the fight and see Pac slowing down after the body work. Impressive he made it to the end with a W. Would love to see the rematch.

Thurman impressed me on his performance and his heart of champion and mentality. His post-fight interviews really just confirmed that.

He fought an 8 division atg and lost by razor thin.

I would lmao if he went and fought Crawford and took his belt away and bring it back to PBC and rematch the Pacman

[tokon]

The top players are Spence and Crawford. Pac is an old man with decades of mileage on his body. If Thurman was legit he should have won and done it decisively.

Exactly! Thurman won't look to fight Crawford unless PBC release him, which is extremely unlikely as he can still serve a purpose over there. Thurman also won't look to fight Spence IF he beats Porter. He won't get a rematch with Pacquiao, so what're his options?
