Porter Beats Thurman; Winner Should Get Brook At Wembley! Screw Khan...

Khan doesn't want to fight any of these top guys. Porter would be a great fight with Thurman for his belt. Winner should then get title shot at Brook's belt in Wembley in the Spring. Porter beats Thurman, makes for a great rematch between Brook & Porter, a much smarter Porter the second time around... And I'm not saying he beats Brook then. But these guys will all fight one another. You can't get Khan to step in with any of those 3; just gutless. AND Danny Garcia as well as Khan get no title shots unless they are willing to man up and fight the best at 147. Unless you can beat Brook, Thurman, Porter or Bradley, you get no title shot.

Actually think this would be tough for Thurman. Porter is labeled as reckless, but his pressure would keep Thurman backing up and uncomfortable. Thurman gets uncomfortable with pressure and has shown that he can be hurt. I think if Porter hurt Thurman, he'd be able to capitalize a bit more than Thurman's recent opponents who have hurt him.

Its a true 50/50 fight imho. There are a lot of unanswered questions about Thurman, although I likely favor him in this one because of styles.
