Can we all just admit Keith Thurman...

He's got a far better resume than Spence and a resume that equals Bud's it could be argued its superior, the man is coming off of a bad injury, there's nothing wrong with someone taking a tune up to get the kinks worked out, and make sure nothing goes awry before eventually getting to those two.

Not sure when Porter and Garcia were considered easy fights, IIRC, ESB was split down the middle as to who would win, they were two of those 50/50 fights we were talking about the other day. Far more 50/50 than anything Crawford has been a part of.

You admit you never liked him? That wouldn't have anything to do with him not being hood and unlikable thuggish a-hole enough for you would it? He's a nice tree hugging, peace loving hippie who doesn't act like your standard stereotypical piece of ****, like Danny Garcia does, or at the very least tries his best to imitate, his Dad's the real deal, a genuine thug piece of ****. That's a pretty repellant reason to not like a guy if you ask me.

As far as getting slightly "exposed" every time he steps in the ring with someone he's supposed to look good against.... Did Mayweather get exposed in losing 5 to 6 rounds against Maidana, did Mayweather get exposed losing 4 or 5 rounds to Conor? Did Bud get exposed in getting badly rocked by a midget FW in Gamboa and losing a few rounds to Dulorme and Postol?

Or how about this one, did Spence get badly exposed LOSING 4 (maybe 5) ROUNDS to Brook, a tenderized by GGG and coming off of a career ending eye injury Brook, I might add, you know the guy that everyone said "Exposed" GGG after winning ONE ****ING ROUND off of him.

Funny how selective you are when it comes to who you think gets exposed and what you completely ignore and act like it never ****ing happened.

Mayweather took nothing but calculated risks for a ****ing decade, and..... crickets, but Thurman does it after coming off of an injury, he gets thrown under the bus and ran over a few times.

What evidence do you have that Spence and Crawford beat Thurman? Who has beaten Thurman anyway? The only genuinely competitive match he's had was against Porter, which was drawish 6-6 or 7-5 either way type match, you know the type that you'd vociferously argue in favor of it being a one sided domination by the guys who land the cleaner more effective shots, like you tried to say about Canelo against GGG. Well that would be Thurman in the Porter match using your criteria, so I guess to you that wasn't competitive either.

Spence lucked out that he broke Brook's other eye socket, because you know as well as I, that had he not, Brook would have in all likelihood cruise to a UD, and that was after standing in front of Spence and outboxing him, not off the backfoot being elusive like Thurman does. As far as Bud goes, the only guy who he's fought recently that he thought could hurt him was Postol and he ran circles around the ring in an attempt to not engage with him after dropping him twice, and building what he thought was an unassailable lead, now that was a ***** move. How many risks is Bud willing to take with a guy who unlike Postol, can genuinely hurt him?

Oh and that reminds me, why is it okay for Rigo, Lara and Mayweather to haul ass, isn't that the "SWEET SCIENCE", you know, it all about "Hit and Not Get Hit" yet if its a guy you don't like that does it, oh he's a runner. So selective.

Here's the reality, you have a double standard and root against Thurman, because he's an oddball and "different" acting, he doesn't fit some cliché that you want him to, so you hate his guts and talk **** about him, yet all the **** you said about Thurman could easily apply to a lot of fighters you're a fan of, and you say nothing. Be a little more consistent would ya?
