Comments Thread For: Porter: After I Beat Thurman, I am Number One at Welterweight!

[thack]

No way, these guys have got to fight to prove and Thurman although he looks good looks beatable.Spence looks good but beating Algieri doesn't prove much.
Brook beat Porter but hasn't done anything since ,Khan is no1 WBC after just being knocked cold and having never fought any of the top ten.
Mayweather talks about coming back which will probably stall the division for another year.

What once looked like a great division has offered nothing Thurman v Porter is a start but none of them have done enough to call themselves top dog....
If Porter beats Thurman fans will say Thurman wasn't that good, if Thurman beats Porter fans will say Porter had already lost.

In some ways these contenders feel like they are veterans and have been around for ages without really doing much .....all frustrating !

I would say he's #2 behind Brook if he beats Thurman, which wouldn't surprise me.

I see Thurman winning the first 3-4 rounds decisively, with Porter taking over from there. Not impressed with Thurman's stamina or chin. Not sure he's physically strong enough like Brook to handle Porter. But we will see.

Hope Thurman wins though.

Get a rematch with Brook and we can find out
Rematch in the UK and not on facebook

[DannYankee]

Something he could do to beat you? Yeah show up.

[Weebler I]

#3 at best.

Bradley is no.1 welterweight... as far as im concerned who has Brook and Thurman faced that would say theyre top class? Atleast Brook has faced a top class opposition but then a bunch of nobodies. I have porter beating Thurman but then losing to Brook in a rematch.

He would have to be below Brook, so #2 or #3 would be fair. But if Thurman wins clearly - clearer than Brook - you can make a case for him being #1.

Brook vs Vargas winner would be #1 imo and not a winner of this match..
Bradley is up there in top place too..
May be 3rd and 4th definitely..
Spence is #6 at this point imo.

I can't see any genuine too welterweights on Bradley's resume either.

Lol a lot of people are going to be sad & hating when Vargas whoops Brook in front of his hometown. I like the Porters & i want Shawn to win but although this is a good scrap wool is just being pulled over peoples eyes, Thurman should be fighting Garcia in a Unification fight but PBC aint about that. & btw Bradley is the #1 WW hands down.
