I disagree. Thurman is very marketable being that he is a trash talking, undefeated Champion, who's a KO artist.
His PBC ratings tell the story...he has 2 of the 3 highest viewed fights, as the A-Side, in PBC history and will have 3 of the 4 come March 4th (as the A-Side still). He even did 1.2 million vs the corpse of Luis Collazo on PBC on ESPN.
He's definitely a marketable fighter.

Jus watched a video where Gervonta Davis said both his parents were drug addicts N weren't there for him growing up
Having seen that I take back a lot of the jokes N shyt I said bout Tank
I ain't gonna feel so bad bout his momma N all the dealings Tank was in with his family when they wasn't even there for him N too busy getting high instead of taking care of young tank

Unless Frochy Froch intends on stepping back in the ring...I don't know why he keeps ending his tweets with an open option like "you better hope I stay retired"
he had a nose job early this year so no chance.

Yep.
Basically before he officially retired Foch had offers to fight GGG at 168 at Wembley and Ward with location to be negotiated (basically anywhere but Nottingham) and Froch decided to retire. If Froch wanted to retire, i dont call those ducks...but he talked about them so much they feel like ducks...and he has made it seem like GGG and Ward ducked him.
Plus didnt he have the opportunity to get down with DeGale too?

1st off Porter>>>Inactive Kirkland with a year ring rust and without Wolfe
Yeah Froch got a better resume than GGG, but he's not more dominant.
Just like Oscar got a better resume than Floyd, but Floyd was wayyyy more dominant against the nikkas he fought and actually rematched his close fights, something Froch ain't do with Dirrel who he got a bigger hometown gift than Swift did against Herrera (who everyone likes to bring up and shyt on Danny for)
Froch only dominated Bute who we now know ain't shyt. Other than that he goes life and death with everyone else of note and basically wins because he's a lil tougher than his opponent.
Froch is more proven than GGG, true, but he a bytch for trying to play match maker when he already turned down the fight and ducked a Ward rematch his damn self.
When we talking about HOF and skill level, comp only means so much if you dominating them 70% of the time.
nikkas wanna give props for having a bunch of close fights with guys similar to your level, that doesn't impress me like that. Yeah, you took the fight, but you gotta dominate now.
I'm not even trying to talk about GGG like that because their ain't much to say, but if you can't see that Eubanks, BJS, and Canelo ducked him, then there's no reason to even go further.

Who in God's name wanted to see a rematch between him and Ward? He got SCHOOLED.
Nobody on this board or in boxing thinks GGG is trash....but his team cannot keep their mouths shut. Abel Sanchez makes ridiculous statements about ko'ing SMW's or LHW's BUT HIS FIGHTER WON'T FIGHT SOMEONE AT A HIGHER WEIGHT. So it's ok to say you can fight anyone at 154-168 (their words not mine)....but then pull "unification" when asked about moving up. Dude is 34 now come on.
If he wants to stay at MW cool no issue...but like Bernie Mac said " therefore shut..the ...don't speak to me no mo". Just stay at MW and keep the
away from the press clippings.Porter is nice but limited. Dude eats punches but I said to several friends he is a walking KO at 154 even with his stocky build. He walks in straight ( peep how many times he squared up vs Thurman).....now watch him vs a Charlo twin J-Rock or Andrade or Canelo.

Are you agreeing he's the A-Side vs Swift or disagreeing?
