By Dan Ambrose: In a sign of how little interest WBA welterweight champion Keith Thurman (26-0, 22 KOs) has in fighting what many boxing fans see as the future of the 147lb division in undefeated Errol Spence Jr. (17-0, 14 KOs), Thurman said Floyd Mayweather Jr. should offer him $10 million to fight Spence Jr. on his undercard on September 12th. Mayweather already offered Thurman a spot on his undercard to fight Spence Jr. for one of his welterweight world titles.
Unfortunately for Mayweather and Spence, this doesn’t appear to be a good enough offer, because Thurman flat out turned it down, saying he wants the Mayweather fight. Thurman then said if Mayweather wants to offer him the Spence fight, then he needs to throw in $10 million to get him to consider it.
