Keith Thurman is a very overrated fighter. I consider Crawford A level. And I wouldn't be all that impressed if he beats Thurman with ease. As he should. Thurman is Shawn Porter level. Now I'm a massive Shawn Porter fan. I just love watching him fight. I'm under no illusions though. Porter is a solid, but very unspectacular fighter. I put Thurman in the same boat as Porter, just less entertaining. If Spence is really that good he should KO Thurman. Keith shouldn't be sniffing any p4p lists. Dude started taking a late round beating from an over the hill Featherweight.
I don't rate Spence that highly because he's the biggest welterweight in the game and uses his size and strength to batter his opponents. I don't rate Thurman much, either. Spence kills him on size.
Dunno,I used to think he was overrated until I seen him deal with Porter like he did.I said I’ll never doubt him again so I’d have back him v Spence.
Spence could get caught, like anyone else, but if I were betting I would definitely have Spence over Thurman. Spence is just a better fighter. I think he KO's Thurman.
Who has Spence fought, at the pro level, for you to envision such a lopsided victory over someone as talented, focused and seasoned as Thurman?
Porter tried to get a fight with Spence, but Spence won't go near Porter! Porter will rough him up and beat him, Spence knows it too............................
Experience matters man. You need to have some kind of evidence or logic to back up arguments with me. Give me a stylistic reason that Spence would make Thurman quit.
There is nothing in Thurman's career to suggest this. In fact, there's quite a few things to suggest that Thurman turns up to whatever level is thrown at him.
its not always about styles, as a matter of fact, styles really only come into play when the fighters are in the same level, thurman is not on spences level. i could go on and on about the things i see that tell me thurman is no match for spence, which you will counter with equally unprovable points, and neither will change their stance. so i just cut to the chase and offered up money to anyone thats sure that i am wrong.
there is plenty to suggest it, all which have be covered ad nauseam, what you have picked up and what i have picked up is where the differences seem to be.
I think he beats Thurman comfortably but not overly easily. Thurman is such a solid all rounder i dont think anybody would find him overly easy to beat. But i do think Spence is an A level fighter, yes im one of those who thinks you can be an A level fighter even if you are not a slickster. But he is becoming one of my favourite fighters, love his aggresive style but you can also see he doesnt just go lumping in he reads what is infront of him very well. Top fighter.
Wouldn't consider him A-level on the basis he beats Sometimes Thurman, I already consider him A-level. Beating Brook in England was better than anything Sometimes will ever do. In fact, I'd still back a drained, damaged goods Brook to beat Sometimes even now, let alone Spence.
