Comments Thread For: Keith Thurman To Errol Spence: Fight Me Or Leave The Division!

[Oregonian]

that was an even sh**ier effort, but we already knew that Broner was a hype job with a trash punch output. Keith on the other hand was actually legit at 1 point but got complacent. Broner just wasn't good enough to ever beat pac, Thurman should've been able to beat this older version but he's a combination of ****** and no longer driven.

————-

My point, which you missed, was that PAC and his fans somehow made Broner to be a big deal and now they’re thrashing Thurman who despite losing to PAC is still a thousand times better than Broner.

The criticism should be directed at PAC for fighting guys like Broner, Mathysse, Horn, Clottey, Mosley, Algieri etc

No belt having Thurman, king of the division... He calls the shots! Spence, fight Thurman or leave 147... put up or shut up!

Do you want to see the fight or not

This wouldn't be a fight, I'd call it a Terrance execution of Keith, in a punishing way I'm not interested in seeing..

That’s why this is still a good match-up. Pre-accident Spence would have been highly favored but Thurman made an account for himself against Pacquiao even with the loss so he’s still relevant

The young man should have sent the old man into retirement, but I get it. Thurman did have a long layoff with injuries, getting married and travelling the world.

Thurman will fool some dummies with this sudden boldness to fight Spence who wrecked him in sparring several years ago. Thurman has been mute on Spence ever since until now. He knows Spence is badly damage and wants to regain his lost status by beating up a zombie of Spence.

[Monzon99]

Thurman makes peanuts on his B level minor league fights from Haymon. The Pac fight was his long delayed payday. Beating the ghost of spence puts thurman back in position to get big $ fights (Crawford, Fraudweather, Pac2?)

It's sad that Thurman's prime was wasted by Haymon with a series of meaningless bouts. Thurman would have koed Floyd years ago when he was prime. But Haymon and Floyd knew they had to handpick patsy Berto.

I don't disagree that pac should get criticism for his selection of some of his opponents, he should get criticism for his past catch weight fights, he should also get criticism for his unwillingness to get ped tested consistently. However, in the case of Thurman, I blame him for allowing pac to beat him. It never should've happened and the reason it did is because he's basically half assed his career since the Danny Garcia win.

Looks more like he wants a title match. Porter offers nothing.

Porter lost the WBC belt that Thurman vacated to Spence. The line starts behind Porter, especially with Thurman losing his other title to Pac.

The more interesting part is who packs more power between the two. Spence has more come forward of an approach. Thurman is more of a mover. But if both punches collide, which punches will have more impact?

Spence power is non existent on the top level imo he threw everything and the kitchen sink at Mikey and Porter and aside from Porter's normal late fight canvas touch Spence really couldn't hurt them guys dropped at the lower weights...

Off eye I'm not sure if Spence has even broner type pop...Not in Thurman's league there...Spence is a compact body puncher, but wings his shots/slaps upstairs

Don't be surprise if this fight actually happens. Danny is pricing himself out.
