It’s like when Thurman crashed Pauliies Pist Fight wanting a fight. Paulies has fought a who’s who of Legit Big names so while if he’d have fought Thurman at the time he’s not going to let Thurman jump the line who didn’t have a name at all and let the Unknown Young Gun take his scalp and strap just to do Thurman a solid for his career.
Established Guys with a Good team always make the next Unbeatable Killer of Moment who just starting to generate buzz pay their dues start looking human , prove their worth by not letting the Carnival called Boxing get them frustrated with all its Bullsh.it and start losing some of the Hunger and focus they had when they were the Carnivals flavour of the Month with The fans / Media , let them build their name pay their dues before the Fight because that’s almost always what they had to go through.
But Thurman should be chomping at the bit for Spence who has 2 straps ( 1 of those which belonged to Rhurman who didn’t lose it in the Ring ) has had 2 Decent PPVs back to back / Looked Human against Porter and there’s still the unknown how he recovers mentally / Physically from flying out a f.ucking car and somehow avoiding Death or at least a Career ending Injury.
This is the time to Target Spence ( Sh.it if he won he might even get a Pac rematch ) & Buds Legit P4P but I doubt Thurman a Natural WW who has shown he’ll fight anybody is nt going to feel Confident that he can’t beat a guy who started at 135 and probably maxes out at WW
