After soundly destroying a very game and brave Lamont Peterson in New York on Saturday night, Errol Spence decided to stop playing nice and called out fellow welterweight champ, and fellow Al Haymon fighter, Keith Thurman in memorable fashion. Spence even went so far as to change Thurman's nickname from One Time to Some Time, quite a bold move for the soft spoken, polite Texan."I'm waiting on Some Time Thurman," he said. Spence also claimed that Thurman has been coming up with "excuses after excuses."
In truth, it seems like Spence has wanted Thurman for quite some time while Thurman has seemed less than completely interested in facing Spence. This may, of course, be indicative of Thurman not being particularity interested in facing any one fighter in particular. Thurman is a unique character, after all, and no one knows exactly what or how the man may be thinking. Having said that, not appearing too eager to face anyone, least of all the talented Spence, is not a good look.
