    Comments Thread For: K. Porter: Anyone Seen Thurman? We Can't Find Him!

    Brooklyn, New York - Both boxers are under the Premier Boxing Champions umbrella. Both fighters are advised by Al Haymon. It’s a fight that should be easy to make. But a showdown between welterweights Keith Thurman (26-0, 22KOs) and Shawn Porter (26-1-1, 16KOs) has yet to be signed.

    I believe it has more to do with Haymon not wanting this fight more than Thurman not wanting this fight. Maybe Kenny should ask al Haymon where Thurman is and why this fight isn't happening.

        Haymon is the Keyser Soze of boxing. He's so powerful he's behind everything. Haymon probably made Duva make the move on the IBF HW title somehow to get Charles Martin a title shot.

          I like how people alway pull out the Al Haymon excuse, Thurman is a fighter and he was very vocal with or without Al Haymon, he can't still speak no one is gagging him, let's see what he has to say, then we can take it from there, the fact that he is silent makes him look like he does not want the fight. Am sure if Porter was Amir Khan now "One time" would be vocal and he wouldn't be "Some times".

            Is this your opinion or a fact?

              I get the feeling that Thurman is waiting to see if he can get Khan instead of Porter!

                  Haymon had Vernon Forest murdered & Paul Williams paralyzed for crossing him. He has the documents to prove it.

                  Haymon did 9/11. He was trying to help give Tito more time to prepare cuz he came into camp outta shape for the Bhop fight &/or to throw off Bhop. Haymon & King mad cool (King was just a promoter on a PBC last month) & Haymon was trying to help out King. Didn't work out, but you don't win if you don't try.
