Comments Thread For: Thurman-Porter in Play For March 5 on CBS

[-DSG-]

They lose a ton of potential viewers by going head to head with a gigantic fight like that UFC one. It it was some average/mediocre UFC PPV then it wouldn't matter much.

I know but the UFC has no problem going head to head with boxing but for some reason boxing has to run from them because they have a good ppv.

Thurman scrapped past Collazo FFS.

I think Porter decisions him by work rate.

Great fight.

Does sc****d by mean winning every round , take a vicious body shot recover and make Collazo quit in the 7th. Then yes I agree he scrapped by

So what's the deal with this fight? Is it still on for that date? It's one of the few good fights I've seen made this year.

Probably this

BREAKING: Multiple sources confirm UFC will soon announce UFC 197 for March 5 in Vegas with Dos Anjos/McGregor and Holm/Tate.

While I wish this was up and set already, c'mon, you can't blame them for moving their big debut show one week later to keep from going up against what should be a giant event. This might be a good day for one of those daytime cards though,

Also, shouldn't the PBC be announcing like a ton of shows soon? I thought the point was that they were going to have fights on every week and the big names were going to fight 3-4 times a year. They have one major show coming up. I get they don't want to go against the NFL playoffs, but shouldn't they have some shows in Feb? I haven't heard much being mentioned.
