    Thurman will be affected more than Porter. Porter already has a loss and his crowd-pleasing style will continue getting him fights.

      It would hurt Thurman more because he markets his 0. It's a part of who he is. Porter is bigger now then he was after he lost to Brook. Broner's most memorable fight is his loss to Maidana. And he lost to Porter and he's even bigger now. Broner-Crawford would be a big PPV. Canelo is the biggest star in boxing and he got embarrassed by Floyd. Losses only hurt when you base your career on the fact you're undefeated. Thurman, Floyd, and GGG are marketed as undefeated. A loss to Canelo would hurt GGG more than Canelo losing to GGG. I don't think a loss is gonna hurt either Kovalev or Ward when they fight each other.
      I believe it hurts Ward drastically, Kov would be fine.

        Thurman. Porter can lose 4-5 times and still be respected. Like Maidana, Guerrero and those dudes.

          Thurman because PBC is trying to make him a star.

              There's a difference between stepping up and being ducked. The guy was deliberately ducked.
