Welterweight Tournament

Ok guys first post on this thing so go easy!

Thurman vs Vargas
Crawford vs Khan
(Quarter winners fight in semi)

Spence vs Garcia
Porter vs Matthysse/Jamal James
(Quarter winners fight)

Winners of both semis go head to head

Tuneups for Khan and Keith have been done in this scenario.
How do you see this one playing out?

Really...this is what you wanna go with as your first post huh?

[solid_jab1987]

That is correct, why not?

[caritafan]

Because you've been registered for over 4 years. And you broke your silence for............................................... ............that?

See this is the reason I've stuck to reading rather than posting. So far I've had two responses neither of which constructively deal with the content of the post in question. It shouldn't baffle me but it does...

Thurman beats Vargas. Crawford schools Khan. Spence dominates Garcia. Porter beats up Matthysse. Crawford schools Thurman. Spence outpoints Porter but Porter makes him work like a dog for the decision as is his way. Spence and Crawford make for a good fight but Spence's size makes the difference.

I really wished there was a welterweight tournament that is analogous to the WSSB tournament that is already currently occurring in the curiser weight division where the best boxers in the division face each other and most of those boxers are undefeated and at their prime / peak. That's what boxing needs in general for not only the cruiser weight division but every weight division if possible.

This.

Except I've seen Porter wobbled vs Thurman, and dropped vs Broner. Spence breaks him down, and stops him at some point. Helluva firefight tho!

Agreed, and a Welterweight Tournament would be especially great given the depth of the division and general lack of willing for these guys to get it on. When was the last time Khan even fought at Welter...

Really fun fight to watch, neither guy would be backing down that's for sure! I got Spence
