    Tony Harrison-Willie Nelson on the undercard

    Given the lack of WW options this summer I think it's just good to see someone like Thurman staying busy. If Thurman gets the KO then he'll make a statement. Otherwise it's just a stay busy fight but I dont think "lazy" main events like this are gonna help PBC reach the level they want..

    Also takes him out of the Floyd September equation..

    Thurman should be fighting Brook, Khan or Mayweather

    Not excited about this. Collazo is done. Khan embarrassed him.

    Thought Thurman was going to step up.
    This is a step backwards.

    Collazo isn't a great opponent really but which top names would be willing to fight Thurman?

    This fight is for Thurman to gain experience against different opposition. He's still young. Now if he still getting fights like this at the age of 33. Then theirs definitely a problem.

    Thurman will probably win by KO

    Definite step back for Thurman. Not really interested in this fight.

    How does he fight Brook or Khan when both have fights scheduled and both are going to be on Mayweather's nuts waiting for a fight. I'm sure Haymon knows Mayweather isn't fighting Keith so he needs a fight to stay busy. Danny Garcia would have been a more intriguing fight but Garcia would probably angle for 144.5 or something stupid..
