      Yea I say both have an interim fight to let the hype build if the plan is early next year.

        Sounds too good to be true.

          This needs to be on free TV, but maybe Haymon wants to test out if Thurman/Garcia can transfer their successful ratings over to Showtime.

                Needs to have a top notch co-main event too. Like Jermell Charlo-Demetrius Andrade or Santa Cruz-Gary Russell.

                  Going how I expected it to go to be honest. Garcia vs Berto, Thurman vs David Avanesyan, if both take care of business then they meet up for a HUGE Unification Bout

                    Looking at the 147 landscape that does seem like the best fight to make.

                    Brook is booked vs Canelo & if he beats him he's on another level & will probably stick around at 160 or maybe try to capture a 3rd belt at 154 or something historical like that & if he loses as expected then he's got Spence coming up in the new year.

                    Bradley & Vargas are down with Top Rank & I'll believe Haymon & Arum are working together when I see it.

                    Spence gots Bundu & then looking towards Brook so he's probably a possibility in mid to late 2017 for Thurman win or lose vs Brook.

                    Khan is all over the place lately so who knows whats up with him.

                    So yea I guess Thurman vs Garcia is probably the sexiest fight to make realistically for Thurman in the next 6 months or so. Assuming he don't gotta handle that bs ass defense which could push out any meaningful fight he'd wanna make next.

                      Leaked to make their next two choices opponents, Garcia's especially, easier for people to digest.
