If I had Bezos' money I'd buy out PBC, TR, Matchroom, and G, and merge em all together so we can actually see some fucking fights. Maybe Jeff Bezos should run boxing. He'd have Spence-Crawford made in a fulfillment center and sent to us all in 3 days.
Why do yall keep throwing thurmans name in the mix. Damn can the dude get a couple fights under his belt before hebis thrown to the wolves. Fuck. The dude was out for 2 damn years came back in tough return fight. Can he get 1 or 2 more of those to get ready. Yall kill me.
I've been wondering that myself. If for whatever reason people want to talk about Uma Thurman they should do it in the movie forum.
Thurman can have five tune-up fights and he still won't want Spence. It's way past the point of making excuses for Thurman. He plain and simple wants no parts of Spence. He never did.
Agreed. it's the IN thing at fightbeat to throw mud at Thurman and call him a ducker (even though is resume is pretty good), but he need a few tune ups before the take on a monster like Spence. I'm pretty sure this fight will happen eventually (while Crawford will continue fighting no-hoppers and get hyped by the very same person who denigrate Thurman)
You Can Always Be Counted On for Having a Built-In Excuse NOT Give a Fighter Credit, Doub… Had Spence NOT Faced Mikey YOU and Others Would Be Here Posting " What Type of Bitch DOESN'T Take a Money Fight Against a Guy Moving Up 2 Weights to Fight Him?"... Now, it's "Not a Good Look" if Pac is Next, Even Though he's Been @ Welter for a Fucking DECADE Now? In Lieu of Floyd, Pacquiao is THE Biggest Name to Share a Ring w/@ '47...BARfuckingNONE!...Spence, Porter, Thurman, Garcia, They're ALL Standing in Line to Gladly Get a LOWER Split to Face Manny... It's ONLY "Not a Good Look" from a Slurred, Blurry Perspective Bruh...That Said, You've Always Conveniently Seen What You WANTED to See.... REED
REED's Beef w/Thurman is How He SELFISHLY Hijacked the Division...The Instant You Unify, You're Not Back in the Ring for 2 Fucking Years? The TIMING of the 2nd and 3rd Injuries was SUSPICIOUS for Certain and it Coincided w/Thurman Marrying a VERY Beautiful Woman and Having More Money @ his Disposal Than Any Other Time in his Life...He Composed Himself More like an UNMOTIVATED Fighter than an Injured One, Yet he Held On to 2 of the 4 World Titles All the While...Fuck That...Thurman Willingly Allowed '47 to Stagnate... Looking @ the COMPLETE Picture, REED Doesn't Think Thurman Deserves FULL Benefit of the Doubt for Being on the Shelf 22-23 Months...Not Saying He was SCARED or DUCKING, But REED Has Little Doubt the Motherfucker COULD Have Fought Again Prior to When he Actually Got Around To It... REED
COme on. Nobody would have blamed Spence if he didn't wanted to face Mikey. Everybody knew this was a mismatch and a waste of time
He was replying to an individual poster, not about any potential "blame" Spence would have received if not facing Garcia.
He said me and "Others." I wouldn't blame him for taking Pacquiao next. If it's there, it is an opportunity he should grab.
Word is that Spence-Garcia did almost 400,000 buys. Meaning it outsold Wilder-Fury and Pac-Broner. Spence-Pac might do 800,000 or so. MAYBE even break a mil. Spence is without question gonna be the A-side if the Crawford fight gets made.
Agree. Which is why it will be at least five years before it gets made, if ever. What a shame. Makes it hard to take boxing seriously.
As a big Pacquiao fan, I hope he doesn't fight Spence. He's 40 years old, has had an epic career, and at this point deserves some cherry picking. Picking up some easy paydays outboxing the Broners of the world. Not unlike Floyd Vs someone like Spence, I would take no pleasure in watching old Pacquiao or old Floyd take a beating from the likes of Spence. I tell you what though, if it does happen, Pacquiao will do a fuck load better than Garcia did against Spence even at age 40. REED, you must have met Spence right? How tall is he?
The same countless others weren't excited about the very matchup in a thread you're posting about including myself. If your memory is that bad read the thread from page one and continue.
I've been a big of Manny and don't want to see him as a sacrificial lamb, but he's made 100s of millions of dollars. There should be no need for him to cherry pick.
