Fans are generally harsh on fighters. What fighter has genuinely wanted to fight the best their whole career. Certainly none of the elites and the non-elites only want to so they can make as much money as possible.

If Im Thurman Im thinking if I stay undefeated and Spence or Crawford also do for another couple of years theres a chance the 3 have fights in seriously big money fights. Right now they probably only make a fraction of that.

Do I like it? No! But its the same in most business', if you have a product that you think is worth a certain amount and you are being offered a fraction for it you probably wouldnt accept the offer, even if the offer is a large amount.
