    Showtime trying to make Thurman vs Garcia




    For early next year, Espinoza assumes Thurman is gonna be out for the rest of the year but I seriously doubt it, his cut wasn't that bad. He can easily be back in the ring by October/November for his mandatory, then Garcia maybe March?

      Why wouldn't they make the fight...?

      I think it would be a competitive and close fight, I don't see one guy dominating the other. I would favour Thurman though, maybe 60-40.

      This is definitely a fight I see happening soon, it's the next big one at 147 and PBC.

        Makes sense.

        Probably the biggest fight to make at 147 amongst the new breed. They're the two biggest names.

            Yep, so far PBC's two highest peaked events were headlined by Thurman, against Guerrero and Porter. I think Danny is second, so they're definitely the biggest two names on paper.

            It would do great numbers on free tv imo, over 5m.

              "Why would two undefeated young fighters in their prime fight, though? It doesn't make sense."

                    Link bro?

                    I think they've got until mid August to agree a deal, hopefully they get it out of the way ASAP
