If you missed yesterday’s boxing matchup between welterweights Errol Spence and Kell Brook you’ve missed what would likely go down as a classic fight. Kell Brook took a knee in the 11th round of his home crowd in England forking over his IBF belt to Errol Spence who is now earned his first world title.
Immediately after the fight, Spence told thousands of boxing fans that he’d like to fight Manny Pacquiao, and Keith Thurman, another welterweight whose undefeated and coming off a nice victory over Danny Garcia.
Keith took to Twitter to answer Spence’s challenge saying this while flossing his belts “Congrats EJ, but there is no true ? until you see me. #OneTime”

Currently, Keith is recovering from undergoing elbow surgery and the timetable for that healing can take anywhere up to 3 to 6 months, so it’ll be interesting to see if Thurman takes Spence up on his challenge in 2018. Check out some highlights from Spence VS Brook below.
