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.
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. Be sure to check back often as more details unfold.
