By Ben Thompson | April 13, 2015

Sources close to the information have informed us that a potential showdown between undefeated WBA welterweight champion Keith Thurman and former welterweight champion Shawn Porter is currently being discussed and could very well come to fruition. From what we're told, the bout would likely headline a Premier Boxing Champions event being targeted for June 20, although it's unclear exactly which network would televise it.

ADRIEN BRONER AND HIS TRAINER HINT AT JUNE 20 RETURN; COULD GO HEAD-TO-HEAD WITH ANDRE WARD RETURN
By Ben Thompson | April 13, 2015

"Y'all see me again in June...June the 20th," stated three-time former world champion Adrien Broner and his trainer, Mike Stafford, who both hinted that June 20 will likely be the date of Broner's return to the ring. The news comes in conjunction with reports that a potential showdown between undefeated WBA welterweight champion Keith Thurman and former welterweight champion Shawn Porter is also currently being discussed for the same date.

If Haymon Boxing does indeed move forward with a PBC card on June 20, it could very well go head-to-head with the plans of Roc Nation Sports, who are staging the return of undefeated super middleweight king Andre Ward at the Oracle Arena in Oakland, California on that very date. Check out the video below to see what they had to say, and be sure to check back often as more details unfold.

Thank you Al Haymon:mjcry:


If this is able to come off:banderas:

On another note...SOG, #SOGGang, and our BET debut/ring return on June 20th will be outshadowed HUGE by this if this happens. Haymon is so :demonic: brehs:wow:

While the fight is sure to be full of fireworks, I really don't want to see Porter fight Thurman. I was hoping to see Porter's stock get rebuilt first before fighting Thurman.

Hilarious if they do decide to overshadow Ward's return to the ring.

Broner trying to ride The Lethal Lisp's coattails again, huh?
When Adrien gonna get to main event one of these broadcasts?:heh:


Keith Thurman is a Champion and is fighting great opponents now, no way we could ever headline over him fighting the caliber of opponents we are at this time and without a belt.

I think it would be a split double-header though since AB is fighting in Cinci on June 20th, but Haymon also has Barclays on hold for June 20th.

:banderas: and when Porter recklessly jumps into a left hook or straight right and goes night night.

:francis: and :mjcry: at when the #SOGGang ratings come in.

fukk Haymon :pacspit:


Porter ever been seriously hurt though? I've seen him take some shots and he kept coming. He lost the fight with Kell from eating those counters but he never did stopped coming.
