    Mayweather is not ducking Thurman or porter.

    The fight just won't sell.

    Porter has never headlined Showtime and his fight with brook is gonna be on Canelo undercard if it's in USA. You don't just go from undercards to fighting mayweather.

    And Thurman's best win is soto karass with all due respect.

    Mexican Americans are the overwhelming purchasers of ppvs in the USA.

    Bernard Hopkins said African Americans were not buying his ppvs in great numbers after checking the data.

    Arum recently said African Americans didn't buy the Bradley pacquaio fight in great numbers either.

    I agree but in Keith's case it doesent hurt that he has great skill along with a knockout percentage similar to that of lucas matthysse and sergey kovalev





    Thurman's mouthpiece alone could sell that fight imo

    It definitely won't sell yet because both Porter and Thurman are being established. Will take a while for both Porter and Thurman to be big enough and by then Mayweather will most likely be retired.

    Well if they DO start pulling in numbers before his contract is up, he'll have no choice but to face them, IMO.
