    Thurman has to continue stacking bodies...
    Eventually they can't hide from him anymore & the people will demand he get's a high profile fight.

    GBP's should feature him on as many undercards & PPV's as they can & create a buzz like HBO is doing with GGG.

    A "New" champ like Porter is going to want to milk his championship a bit.

    Well Thurman would bash him so I don't blame him. No rush though, they're both young and have room to improve, is it so bad that they have more time to develop anyway?

    In other words, Shawn is not ready yet. I wouldn't want my son to get knocked out in his first title defense either.

    You guys don't understand the term "cashing out".

    Porter wants a money fight with mayweather or PAC.

    Why fight Thurman if he doesn't have too.

    Thurman is sooo overrated here. Who Has he beaten?

    Porter has aleast 1 name on his record.

    Porter should give Devon a rematch first.

    Keith Thurman is #1 Welter weight today, never enough money to catch an undisputed beat down

    That's understandable. Why would a newly crowned champ want
    to have his career ruined by a guy who hasn't matured in marketability
    yet? Thurman will get his time against the very best, so porter can
    look for a safer route against his only ever payday. Besides, nobody
    who knows anything about this sport would give porter a snowball's
    chance in hell against 1 time.

    How can you possibly knock and whine about Garcia fighting Herrera and then turn around and post this nonsense?

    Can't blame Porter's people. His 15 minutes would be up.
