Showtime Fight Night: Thurman vs Diaz ~ Matthysse vs Molina

[Kirkland Laing]

Thurman's footspeed/handspeed/athleticism seriously impressive.

[beenKOed]

Props to both warriors. That is a Foty candidate if there ever was one. Going to be hard for the main gig to top that.

That was huge for the career of both guys although you hope Molina is OK after all that.

The real loser is Thurman. How the fuck do you follow that?

I'm not much of a wagon jumper but I'm jumping onto Molina's after that performance and class interview. I doubt we've heard the last of him. Hard to believe Lucas outweighed him by 4 pounds tonight.

Molina looked huge didn't he.

[Sleepwalker]

That was a great left by Thurman. Lighting fast.

[J_Undisputed]

Thurman is still there for that chopping right Over the top when he feints

He is way to concentrated on this KO tag and setting one & done traps

[IamInuit]

Well that was a little anticlimactic.

[Kirkland Laing]

Al Haymon got thanked before God.

[beenKOed]

Well, hell! A big let down.

[Sleepwalker]

I hope Thurman's knockouts don't affect his approach in every fight.

He should be intelligent enough to know that he will not be able to knock every opponent out as his competition level increases.

Thurman reminds me of a guy who use to watch a bunch of karate movies on a Sunday morning and emulating nunchuck skills in the mirror. Props for calling out Porter yeh

I hope the Brook fight comes off w/o a hitch.

Probably on the Alvarez-Lara undercard. I don't see them getting matched straight away though even if it's just one of them is a Floyd dance partner.

Yeah. I think Brook/Porter will go to purse bid and Porter will get a boat load going to England. I think Brook has the skills but not sure on the stones. It would be interesting though if GB won the purse bid. Brook would have to cut that cord.

Arum just said fuck it we'll do Burns-Crawford where it makes most money. Schaefer is saying the same about Porter-Brook but everybody thinks it ends up in the States for some reason. It could definitely sell 10 000 tickets in England. Depends how much Showtime come up with and how much GBP are willing to subsidise. Probably a PPV card covers the subsidy.

True. I think that Hearn has a suspicion that if they dont get this via purse bid that the client might back out again. However perhaps GB knows that and would rather have Porter fight in house or milk him a little with another opponent. So they throw a massive bid in thinking Special Kase might injure himself a day or two before the fight.
