    does the winner of thurman - porter crown a new welterweight king?

    i saw someone say this in another thread.

    if porter wins, does he go in your top 10 p4p? what about thurman?

        Nope. The winner of this fight would have to fight the winner of Pac/Bradley. Then they'd have to face Brook after. Of course, none of this happens because of promotional nonsense.

            No but it's a good start for the winner towards proving where they stand in the division. If the winner of this fight then beats the winners of Brook/Khan (if that even happens) and Pac/Bradley that'd be a different story.

            EDIT:
            I'd put Pac/Bradley winner at #1 for the moment but there is still a lot of good fights these young guys could make to change that around.

            As far as P4P it's a tough call where they'd go. I'd much rather Tyson Fury be on the P4P list than the Thurman/Porter winner.

              I haven't heard anybody make that claim but it is a good start going into that next generation of Welterweights to see the young guys step up and fight each other

                PAC-Bradley would obviously be #1, followed by Porter-Thurman, then Brook-Khan.

                  it's been mentioned a few times in a couple of porter vs thurman threads. that's the only reason i made this thread.

                    Sure does, the PBC welterweight king will be crowned on that night. I can't wait to see what the belt looks like too.
