Shawn Porter could fight Thurman after beating Brook

I think Porter is going to dominate Brook, then the logical fight would be with interim WBA welterweight champ, Keith Thurman....granted he doesn't get offered a fight with Mayweather.....Porter seems to be game for the fight

Shawn Porter: I’ll fight ‘One Time’ two times (laughs). I personally don’t look past what’s in front of me, but we’ve seen it all over the internet. Everybody wants that fight, I think it will be an exciting fight and it’s a fight that I wouldn’t turn down.

Article link --> Shawn Porter: “We all know Floyd Mayweather is on the clock and we’re all right there hoping we’re next in line!”

Who wins and why?

Thurman will whip Brook... but struggle vs Thurman!

Porter and Thurman will not fight each other until they get some paydays under their belts. Then they will duke for a BIG payday. Color this green.

This fight. Is only behind GGG/Ward as far as my interest goes. Doubt we see either.

There's not enough money in the Showtime budget in 2014 for Porter after Porter is paid for Brook for this fight.

At this point, do you honestly believe Ward-GGG is a competitive, close fight? I don't yet. I'd like to see if GGG's power translates at 168 first before I think he's got a shot at the best guy in the division above him, with that said, of course, I wouldn't pass up watching the fight.

I hope that fight happens. I think Porter takes it. Think his speed will get him a UD. Should be a great fight.

I don't know. I just want to see someone attempt greatness. When Ward entered the Super 6 he was a massive underdog and inexperienced, but he took a shot at greatness. People suggest smart business plans for GGG but they hardly ever suggest a shot at greatness. Unifying isn't that shot, titles are defined by who carries them. GGG could win all the belts and I wouldn't think any different of him than I do now. But fighting Ward, hell, he wouldn't even have to win to move up in my book.

i would love for this fight to happen. it makes perfect sense but i doubt it happens right now. they will both want to make bigger names for themselves so that down the road their fight will make a ton of money.

I can see how he would struggle against him. Thurman and Thurman match up very well with each other

Porter will not beat Brooks.
