Thurman/Collazo would be great... finally test Keef. And give Matthysse a fringe contender for his comeback.

urango vs matthysse

collazo vs thurman

If it's in L.A. it'll flop. Only Mexicans sell in L.A., period. I'd go though. But they should definitely have it somewhere else.

What great boxing fans Mexicans are! Smh geez thry can't even come out and support two big punchers like Lucas and Thurman???? Smh no good bro.

They intend to have Thurman-Matthysse on Mayweather's September card probably.

Have Lucas move up and fight Collazo in a tune up bout for 147. And have Thurman fight Porter or something.

This would be great.

This would be great.

We'll probably get Thurman-Collazo and Lucas-Lopez though. Not bad.

But I want to see Thurman fight one of the Top 147 guys. Collazo is coming off a nice win, but I'd rather see someone like Porter, or even Guerrero.

I should have said only Mexicans sell BIG in L.A., that card could probably pull a good 4,000 still. 90% of that would be Mexicans. Broner vs. Maidana in San Antonio pulled in 10,000+ with only Jesus Soto Karass and Leo Santa Cruz on the undercard. Mexicans watch boxing either way, but a card full of Mexicans is an automatic sellout in California and Texas.

That's just a really weird comment.

Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer is planning to stage a "power punch" Showtime televised doubleheader on April 26th. The event could potentially land at StubHub Center in Carson, California - other venues are being explored as well.

The fight would showcase two of Golden Boy's biggest hitters, Keith Thurman (22-0, 20KOs) and Lucas Matthysse (34-3, 32KOs), in separate fights.

Formiddable opponent my as.s! Schafer will put Thurman's protected asss in the ring with another slow stiff like Jan Zaveck and try to pass it off as Thurmans best competition yet.. Schafer has a different definition of what constitutes a formidable opponent than most boxing fans.
