    Great, I doubt the Thurman fight happens right after that. It would be nice for them to build it up over the next 2 fights.
    It will. Would happen in Dec. if Thurman wasn't injured and out studying weed plants in southeast Asia. Thurman took a year off and stepped in with Porter. Took another year and then Garcia. He gives zero ****s and you know Spence is itching for that fight. Sometime between March-May.

      Yea I think Peterson is a really good match up it would be competitive for six rounds but I think spence breaks him down and stops him before 12

        Sadly this is the Haymon fighter blueprint.

        I'm a Haymon fan cuz he takes care of fighters money-wise, but starting to think Haymon fighters need to have promoters if Haymon isn't hustling some other angle with keeping his fighters "out there" instead of people wondering where the f#ck they are at cuz I believe he might be paying them more than most cats although keeping their overall earning potential down by never making them as relevant as they could be with these long pauses in their careers. Sh^t is getting silly.

            they do have "promoters" do they setup any of the fights or do any actual promoting of the event........no not really. they just do the leg work for decision maker haymon. and yes its nice he pays his fighters but he unfortunately took on too many and ran out of money to go around. he needs to let some of these guys go so they can actually fight. keep the good ones like spence, charlo, etc...and start working with the other top promoter top rank someday maybe instead of playing who dies first?

              The echo chamber where boxing fans reside. Case in point.
