There's usually not that much disparity in skill among the elites unless another elite has been protected for a long time (like Wilder or Broner)
Recent elite fighter vs elite fighter in the welterweight division:
Thurman vs Porter result: UD win by Thurman 115-113
Thurman vs Garcia result: SD win by Thurman
Porter vs Garcia result: UD win by Porter 115-113
Pacquiao vs Thurman result: SD win by Pacquiao
Spence vs Porter result: SD win by Spence
Crawford is the only one who still hasn't fought the elite fighters of his division (this can be a bad thing because he may very well be caught off guard by the disparity of skills between that of the elite and the mediocre)

Thurman will expose the overrated hype job cherry picker bum beater. Uncle Bob and Team Crawford will duck Thurman like they did Porter. Crawford is all talk and his resume proves he wants no tough opponents. If blown up and inactive Gamboa can put Crawford on queer street with a massive size disadvantage, Thurman can stop him. Crawford is packing glass and Eurobum Mean Machine showed that once again by dropping the hype job last fight. Team Crawford will say Thurman don't have a belt doe and duck. #HypeJob #CherryPicker #Overrated

After he had lost? Fighters do this AFTER losing. Prior to that they would come out with all the excuses in the world. When Thurman had something to lose he didn’t want to know who Spence or Crawford were, now that he lost to Pacman and his belts are gone he is willing to fight anyone.

Will Arum let this happen? Arum's basically fake crying over Pac and won't allow that fight to happen. Thus cannot see him letting this fight happen either.
