    Your choice: Mayweather vs Thurman or Mayweather vs Porter

    Who do you think deserves Mayweather?

    Who do you think would do best vs Mayweather?

    Who does more for Mayweather's perception since people seem to think Mayweather has to prove himself vs young guns rather than someone like Thurman picking up a win over a legitimate threat?

    Who do you think would win?

    Would you give Mayweather credit for fighting either of these guys and winning?

          Porter would beat Floyd 8-4 or 9-3 IMHO

            Honestly neither guy would give Mayweather any problems. If i had to pick, I'd say Porter, because at least it would be unifying belts.

                Mayweather-Porter

                Chance for Mayweather to unify all the belt and Porter is one of the toughest fights out there for Floyd IMO.

                  I think Thurman beats Porter, but Porter would stylistically be a harder match-up for Floyd.

                  Porter will swarm Floyd non-stop for 12 rounds, he's a very skilled pressure fighter with a good jab, footwork etc. He's very good physically and athletically as well.

                  Thurman might try fighting at Floyd's pace and get outboxed imo. If he fights on the front foot and pressures Floyd though, he could give Floyd a very hard time as well.

                    Neither Deserve it.

                    Thurman best win is Karass.

                    Porter best win is Paulie.

                    If that gets you a Mayweather fight then Shit all of us we weigh around 147 should turn pro now and we might get our shot too.
