Now we find out if Thurman is a coward.

This would be absolutely an amazing fight. Spence bodies Thurman.

lol if Spence's people really wanna put him in there with Thurman right now, I have zero doubt that Thurman takes the fight. Spence is clearly a quality fighter, but he hasn't even fought a C level opponent yet, there's absolutely no way his people would let him take this fight. Even a Porter fight might be a bit too early.

personally i would love to see thurman-porter and spence-ali. although i think ali is a hbo fighter, so you can swap him for berto and that would be cool too

[Sugar Adam Ali]

floyd vs khan
wilder vs arreola
thurman vs porter
spence vs josito lopez


That should be the card

Um...then who is mayweather going to fight? Because no to Spence,no to Thurman,no to porter,and no to ggg. Cotto and canelo are probably fighting each other in fall, so that only leaves Khan or brook,or maybe on an incredibly long shot,erislandy Lara. But personally,all three of those make for a snoozefest,and Lara has the best shot of the 3.

There's not enough time for Porter to train for September fight. He just fought yesterday and will take time off after that.

Floyd is desperate to make the undercard a strong one so that the PPV sells.

No reason for Porter or Thurman to fight Spence at this point. Spence will end up fighting Bob Smith.

He will pick porter, a lot easier, thurman is faster and stronger

Floyd Lara wouldn't sell on PPV, not happening. It's gonna be Floyd vs Khan, Brook gets Rios IMO.
