    We'll find out who the real deal is instead of having to wait for both to collect paper titles first and duke it out.

    Spence is a much better technical fighter than Thurman, but two good young fighters.

    Because they're at different stages of their career.

    Thurman isnt looking to fight a prospect at this stage, he wants an established name like Maidana or Guererro

    Thurman would brutally KO him at this point.

    Spence is still fighting guys that he can walk over despite them landing flush counters to his head. He needs to move up in competition before we can even speculate that he'd survive Thurman.
