On paper it still has to be Thurman but he's so inactive I could see some picking Spence. There is no reasonable argument for Bud at this point.

[Redd Foxx]

I don't consider Thurman to be in the same class as Bud and Spence. As far as which of those two is best, might be a while before we find out as neither is losing anytime soon, nor are they likely to fight each other soon either.

Thurman's a hipster globe trekker at this point. It's gotta be Spence, then either Porter or Crawford depending on if you value resume over talent.

[McNulty]

Spence for real. Lets not start sucking Crawford's dick just yet. He beat a guy that was 5 and recently 10 to 1 underdog.

[SAINTSTEVE]

I voted for Spence because I think he has surpassed Thurman in his inactivity and Crawford is on track for doing that as well but hasn't come as far yet (at 147).

[lparm]

None of them.

Thurman has the better resume and WAS the unified champ. He has a stronger claim than both, especially against Crawford who's sole win at 147 is the gifted B level Horn.

Sure, you can argue who's more skilled or the BS eye test stuff, but that's not how divisional rankings should work. P4P you might have a point.

[Prince Madison]

Thurmans done the most at 147.

Yeah but there has to be some carry over from what you did in your last division. So that being P4P if you move up and pick off a titlist then you shoot to the top of the rankings. I can see an argument made for any of the 3 guys actually. That is what is interesting about this thread.
