Anyone???? Makes sense.

Anything Shawn can get above him makes sense for him.

I think Keith gots a lot of solid options & he's more in the drivers seat so its more about what he can get & than maybe him finding Shawn being a lesser, but decent enough option if these bigger things don't work out for whatever reason. I'd say he's on the table for Floyd in Sept., I'd say him vs Amir is a great option to take, Keith vs Kell is a hype fight between undefeated abc belt holders.

Haymon's puppets: "Haymon fighter" vs "Haymon fighter"

"Makes sense guys, right? RIGHT?! Please hype this up guys so Al can make more money!"

Outside of thurman getting floyd or pac....who would be better??

We mentioned Khan/Brook...they likely fighting each other.

Haymon does the as top rank and golden biy except he has more fighters and its on free tv

Alternatively it's a fight between 2 consensus top 10 fighters that is relatively simple to make. A good style clash to make Keith look good and a big name for Porter to jump t h e queue with.

IMO, Thurman just dominated a guy in Ghost that would likely beat Porter.

I know who I will be expecting to win if this match is made.

I agree but really I'd favor Thurman over everyone but Floyd/Pacman......this would be a good fight to make unless Thurman or Porter for that matter were able to get a Floyd/Pacman/Khan.

This Division is swarming with talent .. Thurman might be a little to much for porter.. is there a reason why JMM couldn happen or is that to far away?

hurricanemitch14 · Post by **hurricanemitch14** » 14 Mar 2015, 19:37

I wouldn't mind JMM or a Bradley, just don't see them fighting Thurman. JMM is looking for cash money fights before retiring and Bradley is a Top Rank fighter and we all know how that goes.

I'm not just talking about Thurman but Porter as well. Good fights for either dude. I just thought with Thurman fighting on NBC last week and Porter fighting last night it would be a little easier to make and be put on NBC. I don't think there would be interest in seeing either dude bomb out Berto.

can imagine JMM probably wants to rinse a few purses out of his belt.... fair play to him a long time in the business he probably wants a nce retirement package. Thurman and Porter maybe a little to lively after his struggles with Bradley. not sure who hel fight and still get reasonable golden handshake

Brook v Thurman for me maybe the most likely to happen and should be a very good match up.. as Khan appears not to be interested in Brook and is looking elsewhere in Pac or MW, I have sneaky feeling Khan is holding out to fight with brook to get a belt so its not Brooks IBF on the table and take an even split.

yea i pretty much agree. Khan is playing it cool keeping his name in the articles and waiting on floyd/pac result. even tho his sorry ass done been ko'd 3 times and he has never avenged them. brook maybe harder to make now that he has the title. He proly won't be wanting to make a big defense in the states now that he has a title which is where Haymon/Thurman for sure would want it to take place. Now I can see Porter going to England to seek revenge.

im guessing your not a Khan fan

. I like Khan, however I can see why he may irate a few people when he flips his ego like broner. Hes actaully comes acros as a decent lad outside the ring

I have to say I would like to see Khan v MW just to see how MW would manage the speed of Khan, it would be an interesting fight but it wont happen.

hurricanemitch14 · Post by **hurricanemitch14** » 14 Mar 2015, 20:37

I saw Khan in the olympics for the 1st time and was amazed. I remember telling my dad about Khan and saying he would not only win a title but become an ATG. I was off a little, but he is a good fighter. My problem with him is in my earlier post he's been ko'd 3 times and all 3 guys fight in or around his division yet he doesn't mention them. He acts like nothing has happened and that he truly deserves a fight with Floyd/Pacman. He's annoying anymore.

Nah I don't think its very likely myself, but I believe Keith got on Floyd's shortlist with the Guerrero W.

A while back, when Porter was still champion, I said I'd have loved to have seen Porter vs Thurman and Khan vs Brook, then the winners fight each other

no reason, after 1 defeat, that this scenario wouldn't still be appealing.

I had Thurman winning it before and still think that would be the case. It's definitely a fight I want to see.

I think either one if them lose to Sammy Vasquez. Especially that Porter. He didn't impress me none the other night.
