Why does Thurman receive so much criticism from The Black Boxing Community

anybody who plays the businessman role is gonna get hated on period. when a fighter starts talking that marinate sht they draw criticism. thurman wants to marinate his clash vs spence but errol wants to fight him asap. fans are gonna bash the guy who's stalling. its always been that way.
personally I dont believe for a second thurman is scared its just that with these guys fighting just 1-2 times per year fans dont got no damm patience. same criticism is currently being thrown at gervonta davis and his promoter floyd when it comes to lomachenko calling him out. go to his IG page and read the comments. nothing but duck and chicken emojis.
not too long ago thurman was in spence shoes chasing the big names. and thurman was also heavily ducked by malignaggi, bradley, maidana and yes even floyd (he was mandatory for two years). so thurman figured this is just part of the game and now hes putting spence through the same experience. kinda like "i had to wait so you gotta wait too".
who knows in a few years spence would also want to marinate a fight and fans will flip on him too.. its not a racial thing its simply about lack of patience. we're lucky to see these guys take two fights per year so fans only want mega fights.

Yet, he receives so much criticism from black boxing fans especially on YouTube. The black boxing community prides itself on supporting black fighters, yet Keith doesn't seem to receive any
I personally think he's a decent fighter but I'm not a fan, however his resume is far from stacked. Beating Spence and Horn/TC/Pac, or at least fighting them, would make it stacked.
