Comments Thread For: Thurman-Collazo, Harrison-Nelson - July 11 on ESPN

[Fetta]

I suppose Devon Alexander is available and may have been the only other decent viable option

edit: Berto as well

yeah, those fights would have been a lot better.

Better but wouldve got the same crap for it.

Unimpressed.

Seems like an ESPN level fight lol. Thurman did say he wanted July. Heck if he gets an impressive KO he might get Floyd in September.

Better but wouldve got the same crap for it.

Maidana would have been perfect here but he's been MIA

[SeekDaGreat]

Canelo, GGG, and Gonzales all got major hype by doing just that with lesser comp.

Welcome to the new world of boxing

And i like collazo. Hes a veteran who can upset the apple cart at any time

Meh. Collazo is a plain jane vet and will get battered by Thurman. Just like Soto-Karass did. Now, that would be a good fight Soto-Karass vs. Collazo. I'd tune in for that.

What am I saying, I'll tune in for this mismatch too. Junky life.

UNDERCARD FIGHT and thurman likely one timing collazo is saving this card...
thurman impressing and putting up good numbers would have got him a mayweather fight imo

[Luiz]

Stay busy for Thurman.

[Marcov]

Terrible matchup!!

[Fetta]

Maidana would have been perfect here but he's been MIA

Maidana busy eating tons of carne asada with his new millions.

But that would be a good fight down the line if he ever gets back in shape

[The Gambler1981]

Berto and Alexander would actually want to get paid, Collazo is in a different pay bracket and it is not like beating Alexander or Berto would garner all that much more respect than him wrecking Collazo.


Also could do Berto-Alexander and have the winners meet. Getting 3 events that link together.
