    Default Thurman vs Porter December 12th?

    According to fat Dan, they are closing in on a deal for this fight. Great fight though. Both have a lot to gain from this fight and can still easily come back if they lose. Hopefully it comes through.

    Porters style is the worst ever and thurman just had trouble with a guy khan destroyed.

    Brook and khan are possibly the best in the 147 divison depending on danny Garcia next step.

    Floyd and manny are done.

    Let the next best step up.

    I agree. Spence looks loke jhe has the makings of a top fighter too. Despite a few great wins I still dont rate Garcia. Postol would beat him easily.

    Thurman will beat Porter and will be a good name on his career list/cv/resume.

    Excellent fight. Thurman better persuade Porter early to stop charging or he's in trouble. Probably a sharper hitter than Brook but certainly not as strong.

    These are Al Haymon's boys so they will do a Bob Arum and keep it in the stable.

    Khan is definitely not the best in the division.

    I think it's between Brook and Thurman.

    Based on resume, Tim Bradley deserves a mention. I agree though Kell Brook and Keith Thurman are up there as well.

    I think based only on resume though. Bradley is a warrior but I wouldn't give him much chance against any of these guys anymore, to be honest. Come to think, has he ever beat an actual welter? Brook and Thurman are big strong dudes, compared to anyone he has fought.

    Admittedly I forgot about Bradley. He is a wild card to me. He is a really good fighter and his only real blemishes came from pac which isn't a bad thing. He has beaten some good fighters but who knows how he would do against the best at welter instead of pretty good fighters.

    What has Thurman done really? It might be between them, but Thurman hasn't done much to deserve that top spot?

    Bradley beat up Marquez at welterweight, which is better than anything Thurman has done by far. I don't disagree though that he's getting long in the tooth. I'm holding back from saying he's over the hill until the Rios fight, which by the way is a very solid fight too. A more fun fight than this one is on paper IMHO.

    Khan has a better resume than both these cats.

    Khan is udefeated with virgil and will outbox both if the above

    Can thurman or porter even beat pac?

    He has a better resume but has lost to lesser fighters. Khan isn't bad but he hasn't proven that he is better than Thurman or Porter. And what does it prove if neither could beat pac? Pac would easily KO khan.
