We have a better chance of seeing Thurman fight twice in 2018 than Canelo vs Andrade happening :mjlol:

HBO needs to get Andrade another fight early 2018 against a decent named guy (Murata, Korobov, Lee) and start beating the drums for a potential GGG fight.

Andrades's last fight with that wrong sport ass nikka wasn't entertaining enough, so he'll need another showing before being thrown on a ppv.

Andrade did better numbers than Charlo and Canelo is the sport's biggest name so it makes sens, more ppl would watch

with that said the biggest mw fight is still obviously the Cenlo vs GGG rematch and I think all sides know that

Numbers this, numbers that maaan fukk the numbers:pacspit:... a fighter only dictate like 50% of the numbers everything else is out his control.

How GGG would go heel though
his whole image got built up based on him being the mum's favorite, good boy who just happened to body grown men as a job
First I think the fight will get made, too important to both fighters. They acted like the first fight was hard to make and it wasnt. Smart by GB to wait to see if they have some juice with Lemieux. You know if they can't get GGG to sign another rematch they will want GGG to possibly sign an option with Lemieux or know they have a Canelo-Lemieux fight in the bag.

For GGG to go heal I just mean he can't lay down to Canelo just because Canelo is the bigger draw. If they can't make a fight, the GGG needs to make his fight vs. whoever he wants and on whatever date he wants and not wait for Canelo's schedule like they did in the past. Market your fight as the real MW champs fight and let Canelo simmer with the media and his fan base feeling like Canelo and GB are the ones not giving us a rematch. GGG doesn't need to act like a fool or be an a$$hole, just make the narrative be that he is ready to fight whenever and Canelo won't show up.

As I said, I would assume odds are more than 50% we get the rematch.

Porter on Danny Garcia: This Dude is Full of Sh*t!

By Steve Kim

Welterweight Shawn Porter faces Adrian Granados this Saturday night from the Barclay Center in Brooklyn, New York as the televised co-feature on Showtime. It figures to be a pretty good fight but it may not be the one that Porter was truly yearning for.

"No, it actually was not," admitted Kenny Porter, the father and trainer of the former IBF welterweight titlist, to BoxingScene.com. "Of course we wanted Keith Thurman. That wasn't going to happen for us. Keith had an elbow injury and some other stuff going on in his personal life. He got married, went to Kathmandu. I figured the next best guy - which the WBC said we could fight - was Danny Garcia.

"I figured,'OK, that's the next best thing. Let's get it, let's make it happen.' Nah. But that's who we we're going for and we attempted to get that fight together on numerous occasions and there was absolutely no response from the camp of Garcia - they wanted nothing to do with Shawn."

That is, according to the always out-spoken Porter, until they had signed on for the fight this weekend.

"The week after we signed to fight Granados, Garcia comes out and says,'I'll fight Shawn Porter, that would be a great fight. I'll knock him out, he's tailor made for me.' I just thought to myself, 'This dude is full of sh*t' because every phone call that could've possibly been made, was made to take this fight to be the main event here on this card in Brooklyn and he wanted absolutely nothing to do with it."

Porter says he has been given verbal promises of these marquee fights taking place in 2018. So the question now is his son properly focused for the task right in front of him?

"This will be the first time in a long time Shawn has fought this many times in one year. So he's in the best shape of his life. We hear people say that kind of stuff all the time but he definitely is in the best condition, physical and mental shape in his life for any sport he's ever played," said the father.

Like I said before, that's some good stuff. Anyone that can get to work alongside someone that we talk about all day (a professional Boxer...I don't care at what level, but Jacobs is a Championship level boxer:whew:) is definitely living a dream at the time:obama:


Get all you can outta the experience breh:salute:
