Comments Thread For: Thurman: I Want Spence Late 2020, He Needs To Get More Popular

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.- Keith Thurman doesn't believe Manny Pacquiao belongs in the conversation for best welterweight, but the former unified champion didn't accept the bout with Pacquiao to prove he's the best in the division.

Whenever the conversation turns to Spence, his energy suddenly changes. He doesn’t even really hide it that he doesn’t wanna fight him.

Spence and Thurman literally have the same exact level of popularity.

Thurman is right, he needs to step up and face Crawford first.

The winner can fight Thurman if he beats Pacquiao.

OMG very stressful every time I get reminded that this will be Thurman's response whenever he talks about Spence. Makes you wish Pac should have chosen Spence instead of this guy.

Train harder Pac. Just one great performance to save boxing

Thurman use to be a pride fighter.. now he's a prize fighter.. smh. Wtf is happening to these fighters!

[JWHardin]

Thurman knows he won't beat Spence. Everyone seems to recognize he has been ducking him.

What I get from this is Thurman will be ready to retire by the end of next year. Spence has already said he won't wait that long, and you can't make guys like Thurman fight.

I hope Spence fights Crawford after Porter, then moves up. He will be better even at a higher weight. He is killing himself to make 147.

I do think Porter will be a tough fight though, not an easy fight for anyone, but one Spence will win. Spence vs Crawford is 50/50, but I'd lean towards Spence.

well, he’s more popular than Spence, and folks don’t roll their eyes and get annoyed or yell bull**** every time Spence opens his mouth like they do with Thurman. Got dam he’s still saying really ****** stuff.

Spence is probably more popular than Thurman at this point. I mean now people recognize Thurman just because he is fighting Manny. I really hope Manny beats him cause if he beats Manny his head will get big and act like he beat a prime Manny. He will all of a sudden make all kind of demand to make sure the fight doesnt happen.

There was no point in Thurman being presented with a contract when he has flat out refused to face Spence publically. Spence is going to embarass him on Twitter for these statements.
