To keep it a stack he can fight postol and LM

Chad Dawson (33-4, 18 KOs) easily outboxed Shujaa El Amin (12-9, 6 KOs) over ten mostly uneventful rounds, aside from El Amin's trash talking. Dawson walked his over-matched opponent down and landed punches at will from the second round onward. Dawson, a former light heavyweight world champion, did everything he was supposed to do besides get the stoppage. El Amin fought to last the distance, not win. Dawson won via unanimous decision, 100-90 on all three scorecards.

Haymon still keeping the Porter's in the dark about the fight.

I don't think so....I mean I know that's what the homie @LeVraiPapi said, but it still feels "off".


If that was the case, they would have a signed contract from Thurman saying that he will take the fight and everything else blank. They don't have that, so it doesn't count. Word to how Floyd Mayweather did Amir Khan

If not a blank contract from Thurman saying he agreed to the fight, they would at least know a date, a possible venue, $$$ amount...SOMETHING! They don't know anything at all and Thurman nor anyone from his team has said anything at all like they forgot how to talk. All The Porters have is the word that Thurman would take the fight to go off of....that's now how you do business


First, The Porters were supposedly being kept in the dark about the fight happening in December. Then January. Now February?

Allah got some stones putting Martinez on the same card as geriatric ghost

Then Aron Martinez said he wants the winner of Garcia vs Guerrero

I hear what you're saying & I find it strange too. But @LeVraiPapi said Haymon told Thurman to keep quiet while Kenny stays in the media which you know Haymon probably isn't too crazy about & talking this plan B stuff. Supposedly that's why the Porter's are still in the dark about the situation. I'm just waiting to hear one way or the other.

Is there even a contract at all though? Because The Porters were talking about people not signing contracts back in October when there were no contracts to be signed.
I think Shawn and his dad need to just fall back and stop talking to everyone with a microphone app on their iPhone.

I know....and I know it's probably true.


But I still feel like because Floyd Mayweather did the exact same thing to Khan (gave his word, but never took the fight....and Khan never had a signed agreement between the 2) that it seems Thurman is now doing.


There is absolutely 0 information that The Porters have but "reassurance" that Thurman will take a fight with him. No where, when, for how much money, is it in 2016....nothing. And if that's the case, that Thurman is 100% sure he will take the fight, then why hasnt Thurman put his name to paper saying that and lock it in?

But that's my point.


Ken Porter had come out and said they had received "reassurance" that Thurman will take a fight with Porter, however, there is no contract to speak of. In my mind, and seeing #1 Haymon Client Floyd pull this exact same thing with Khan, if there is no signed contract....there is no fight.


If there was to really be a fight between the 2, I would think that a contract signed by Thurman and Porter saying that would be laying around somewhere.....and it's not. So in my mind, there is no fight happening


I hope Im wrong, but so far, there's nothing that says to the contrary

I agree & it's not a good look for Thurman. Even if comes down to Haymon slowing things up his image took a hit with this. I just want to see this fight bruh

My dude said Haymon wanna stack that card and advertise it well. Broner-Porter was not sold well and Haymon doesn't wanna matchup 2 good talents with no buzz but then again there would be no buzz if one side keeps negotiating in the media. My dude said he was at the fight last Saturday and Kenny was acting strange. Maybe he's angry that they don't have a signed contract by now. I mean they could have fought somebody else. But then again you can't blame people when you were told not to negotiate in the media. I wish Porter were with Top Rank instead. Haymon is too lenient and we all know why he can't get too involved all the way in lots of stuff.

Again the Porters need to talk to Haymon and stay off the media.
