Thurman-Porter is next according to Schafer

I like porter cuz he a bad lil nigga like me. Plus I feel he just has raw talent but against Thurman he's gonna need some serious power and defense to win Judging on there last performances. I'm gonna watch some of there fights and will return with an opinion on who's winning.

Now you win a title and the next fight you face possibly the toughest guy in the division apart from Mayweather. No mucking about with Golden Boy and Showtime.

Isn't it great ;D Thurmans ability to make adjustments and adapt through the fight has been remarkable ;)

Lol. Brook isn't gonna fight the winner of Porter v Thurman if it happens

He'll just fight Carson Jones again.

Ive always liked Brook's composed style of boxing but it's getting hard to support him when he's not testing his skills against the best.. He's a very good fighter and I believe he would have beaten Alexander.. He's a notch above someone like Porter and I think he's on a higher level than Thurman even..

He should at least fight Ortiz..

The Senchenko fight seemed a step in the right direction :rolleyes: Can't see him beating Thurman, or even Porter for that matter :p but I'd like to see the fights :D

Sarcasm? lol

Brook might have skills but he doesn't have it mentally. I could see him winning the first few rounds against Thurman/Porter and then falling apart and getting stopped. And you'd have to get him in the ring with them in the first place without him getting a bunch of dodgy injuries again.
