Comments Thread For: Spence On Fighting Thurman: That Sh-t Ain't Happening; F--k Keith Thurman!

[GhostofDempsey]

If I remember well, they both had very close fights with Porter. Thurman had a close fight with Garcia.

I think all those guys are pretty much the same level.

But funny, Spence is ready to call out Canelo, but he can`t say Crawford`s name.

I understand he wants the Canelo money, but he is coming off as a bigger deal than he really is, he hasn't exactly shattered any PPV numbers himself. Spence/Crawford needs to happen.

Who cares. Thurman is irrelevant and washed up at this point.

A proper champion that is ducking a unification fight?

A proper champion that ducked a drug test for years?

Proper champion huh?

Champions fight other champions, not losers like Keith Thurman.

This is the first time in my life I heard people accusing someone of ducking when he wants to fight the winner of a bout instead of the loser.

This must be opposite world.

If Manny don't want the smoke, its easy, drop the belt.

Sure he can drop that belt with no prob. It won’t be his loss though.

Spence and Crawford won’t be too happy once they learn that they have to go through Ugas to complete that unification instead of a mega payday fight.

Spite, when Errol was trying to gain recognition Thurman kept blowing him off so he's returning the favor.

Why doesn't he fücking say that though?

Ugas? Lol, this is a joke right?

You realise Ugas the one that be ducking Spence don't you?


Ugas was close to being mandatory for Spence, then ran to the wbc away from the IBF.

Then when Spence went and added the WBC to his collection, Ugas ran away and went the WBA route.

What's Ugas gonna do when Spemce comes knocking on the WBA's door?

Lol, I don’t think you’re getting the point here. It’s not about whether they can beat Ugas or not. Ugas is a low reward opponent. Both Spence and Crawford go to fight for PAYDAYS. They won’t get it from Ugas. Once Manny vacates the belt like you suggested, their rode for unification will turn from payday to ashes.

But oh well, that’s how real prize fighters should be anyway. You build and you earn. You reap what you saw. No shortcuts to richness.

Mikey, Porter, Danny, Crawford, Spence...all those guys think Pacquiao will fight them.

But Pacquiao will fight one or two of them and retire. Others must fight each other to gain greatness.

Spence and Crawford must fight each other.

Pac likely focuses on Mikey or Conor next year and then retires. If Danny should pull an upset over Spence I can see a unification fight between Pac and Danny.

[FLY TY]

as long as he fights Bud, I'm fine with that. but if he continues to call out Pac, ***** Spence

Pac is the biggest money fight in the WW division, and he's also the WBA super champ. Spence has said time and time again he intends to be undisputed at 147. It doesn't take a genius to figure out he needs the WBA belt to do that.

I still want to see it BUT I understand, Thurman did indeed try to Freeze Out Spence Jr but so did Porter and Garcia and he is fighting them back to back. Can't really complain about him fighting Crawford and Pacquiao>Thurman

He fought Porter for unification and Danny is his mandatory. I have no issue with him fighting Thurman, but from his standpoint, he obviously doesn't see any reason to.

Porter doesn't sell either but Spence fought him coz he wanted that belt.

He'll fight Ugas if Ugas gets Manny's belt (assuming Manny vacates)


Spence already said as much.

"I'm not gonna call put Ugas or nuthin like that, honestly I'm not looking in his direction, but if he gets in my way then I'm definitely going to fight him."

Obviously I'm paraphrasing but it went something like that.
