        It may never happen. Haha. When was the last time we had a unified welterweight champion? Leonard after the Hearns fight?

        Trinidad and De La Hoya unified IBF and WBC but then you had Quartey with the WBA and that never got done. Tito moved up.

        Since then, I think Thurman and Porter was the only time since.

        I checked. You had Floyd and Maidana and then of course Pac and Floyd was WBA/WBC/WBO. Not bad but no one's done all four. It's quite a task it seems.

        As far as curses, I think the Porter curse might be real. Brook beats Porter. Brook gets attacked by some guy with a hatchet.

        Thurman beats Porter. Shortly after, he gets into a wreck and hasn't been the same since.

        Spence beats Porter. Now he's laid up.

        Porter's bad news. Haha.

            Julio Diaz, the guy who gave Porter his first Draw, never won a fight again after that

            Holy ****, you might be into something here

              Damn! For real?

              Man.

              I don't think we should even talk about this on here anymore. If Shawn's reading this, we're ****ed.

                Must have been the guy before Thurman who cursed the division.
