    Thurman or Porter? Who has more top 10 p4p potential

    I have seen Thurman fight a few times and he looked good in everyone. Ive only seen Porter fight against Alexander but I was impressed with his performance. Both men are title holders in one of the most loaded div in boxing. Who of those 2 has potential to be a pound for pound top 10?

    I think Thurman's power is what makes him scarier. Porter just has clinch strength.

    Paulie just said that Porter doesn't do anything great, which is sort of true. I kinda agree with the general assessment that he's a poor man's Mosley. I like him more than Mayfield though

      Thurman has impressed me more.

      He can box and ****. I think Porter's "reign" will be very short.

        Thurman hands down

        I've seen some of his fights but I've never really been impressed by Porter. He did look good against Devon but Devon beats Porter 9/10. I'd pick most guys in the top 10 to beat Porter. Thurman is a different story. He looks to have the X-factor. He'll be one of the top guys for several years and will go on and do great things in in his boxing career. Thurman is a beast.

            I'm a fan of Thurman. I would have loved to see him fighting Khan.

                  How do you guys just eat up this hype? Thurman is just the new Randall Bailey and beating Alexander don't mean ****. Mayfield is the best out of the three of them .

                    The fact that Porter ducked Thurman should tell you enough.
