Comments Thread For: Thurman To Spence: A Lot Of Talk For Someone Handling My Past Work!

Thanks, and I mention Ugas specifically because I know the fight would be easy to make. Ugas would gladly take the B-side position just to secure the opportunity and you already covered how a win could benefit “One Time”.

True true. Ugas would definitely take the B-side money. You're right, its very easy to make. I wonder why no one has put this to Thurman yet.

Won't be surprised if he completely rejects the idea altogether though.

I'm just saying, Rigo nor GRJ have lost to guys like old Salido, and green Teofimo, even though they lost to Lomachenko! I don't think their losses will hurt their resumes though. I hope all 3 have big fights ahead of them: Rigo vs. Casimero, GRJ vs. Tank, and Loma vs. Berchelt/Valdez winner!

GRJ vs Tank is good option for them, but Floyd has been making Tank avoid pure boxers...

Loma should go definitely vs Valdez/Berchelt winner, 130 ring mag should be at stake.

Then Loma can fight Shakur in a in house top rank superfight, he can then comeback to 135 if there are good fights.

If Thurman were to reject it altogether then he should change his nickname to “Once upon a time”...

That would be a great path forward for Lomachenko!

What would you prefer, Brook making sure to pick his spots and tie up Porter who was overthrowing everything, or look for the big shots with Porter overthrowing everything and the fight coming to an end due to injuries caused by Porter's head? Brook had already had his face split open with Porter's head, with Porter also getting a facial injury due to his wild punches.

Brook did the right thing. Control that dude and protect your face. Pick your shots here and there and leave with the title, otherwise he'll be waiting another 6 months to go with the couple of years he'd already waited.

Fact is Thurman and Spence went out there and beat the guy, they didn't smother him to death. I don't even know if either of those guys clinched once in their fight.

Just sounds like excuses to me.

You lost all credibility when you said that Porter beat Spence.

Lol, not even close buddy.

A lot of people had Porter winning the fight. Go onto YT and read the comments. Porter won by a point on my card. Spence looked like shlt and nothing like the killer he is being cast as. Don't forget lots on here didn't even want the fight as they thought it was a mismatch with Spence going to destroy him and not lose a single round. Spence never at any point came close to putting on such a performance.

He lost. Just as Thurman lost to Porter too, but they gave the decision to the fighter they thought could sell more.

Porter wasn't overthrowing in the Thurman fight. Against Thurman, it was his best performance bar none. He did a bit in the Spence fight, but it was nowhere near as bad as Brook had it. Go and watch the fights again then tell me i'm wrong.

Thurman was disrespectful against Spence in the past, not only once. Now he wants Spence to fight him. Spence doesn`t need to do that.

I remember Mayweather wanted Thurman to fight Spence, who was still a raising contender. Thurman responded, that Spence is nobody.
