      Once these guys start fighting, we can start figuring out who is the best or most dangerous. Floyd is retired and Manny is on his way out too. Time for the next gen to step up.
      Exactly, it's slowly starting to happen with the Thurman-Porter fight in December

        It will be a great fight. PBC's best matchup since inception.

            Winner of Thurman/Porter determines who is second best WW, I don't count Porter loss to Brook because Brook broke every rule in the book to beat Porter... clinch, clinch, clinch, run, run, run what an absolute diva smh!

              1st, I'd like to know why you consider Maidana the 2nd most dangerous welterweight.

                Agreed! Hopefully the atmosphere is just as good or better than Mares-Santa Cruz

                  I wouldn't be so sure of that.

                  He can box as well as Bradley but has more pop and natural strength at 147.

                  As for Thurman, that is a 50/50 fight Imo.

                    After Floyd no one is a favorite against him in a fight imo. Bradley would have a chance, but it would be a close win on points, Maidana hits harder than Ruslan who took Bradley to the brink, as far as testing a chin goes. Brook could beat him by UD if he doesn't get caught, but I would still consider Maidana the favorite and A-side in both of those fights. Thurman, Porter, Danny Garcia? All get stopped in the mid rounds. Amir Khan would lose a rematch, a Broner rematch might retire him. Pac would get stopped late.

                      I think Brook beats Thurman decisively. I would expect Bradley to give him more trouble.
