    Thurman UD is the most likely outcome.

    No chance it goes to the cards.:think

    Plus, two Haymon fighters will drawing power.......neither would be sacrificed to the other for Haymans pockets to get fatter.

    Next up for Thurman is Collazo. Next up for Porter is Lopez.:good

    There is very little chance of either hitting the canvas let alone getting KO'd. Thurman is the better and smarter boxer. He wins a 9-3 decision.

    Nice.

    I chose not happening, because Gayman is gonna hand select opponents for both these guys until the Mayweather Pacqioua trilogy is complete and they both walk away leaving the WW division to Khan, Porter, and Thurman, all of whom could be Gaymans PPV king once the 2 TRUE kings are retired. :think

    KO either way, I think Porter is the better fighter and beats more top class fighters than Thurman as it stands ( Haven't seen last nights performance though, heard it was underwhelming but will reserve judgement) But the way Brook wobbled Porter at the end of the 2nd really does make me think a bigger puncher could KO him.

    I don't know man

    Porter vs Thurman seems like a logical fight to make not too long from now

    They'll probably feed Porter to Thurman after he racks together a few wins

    I agree they'll probably fight. But one of em is gonna have to beat Khan or Broner in a PPV clash, setting them up to be the next PPV attraction at WW.:think

    Thurman UD. Porter leaves himself open way too often when he attacks, and Thurman will take advantage of that. His movement will have Porter chasing him like a madman, and his quickness will allow him to land a lot of hard shots.

    I don't think he'll KO him though. Thurman is heavyhanded and commits to his punches, but at the world class level he's not really as much of a KO artist as he portrays himself to be. He didn't stop Bundu or Guerrero, so why would anyone think he stops Porter?
