A few guys like Guerrero, Berto, Ortiz etc would be great, or Collazo if Thurman wasn't fighting him. He is with Golden boy right? Not sure if that hurts him getting matched up with Haymon guys or not these days. He and Crawford could be a superfight in a couple of years....
A Spence/Crawford fight would be something to see. But I am waiting patiently on a Crawford/Garcia fight, quite frankly.

Thurman says he would take the fight. But Thurman should be chasing top guys now. Plus, Thurman can knock him out, more so than anyone in the division. Not sure Spence is really for that just yet.

Ortiz, Berto, Guerrero or Soto-Karass would do well right about now.
Where did you see Thurman say he would take the fight? I ask because I've read repeatedly that Thurman isn't interested. Spence wants Thurman or Porter September 12th for a title. Neither seems interested from what I've read.
