And if it wasntr for the KD id have Robinson winning,Shawn has shown NO improvement,he still bounces way too much and throws punches without thinking of any defense with his chin in the air
Porter don't impress me at all and he didn't at 154, the hype is coming from the fact that he spars with Pacman...as if that actually means anything, some guys are just great Sparring Partners, that does not mean he will be a great fighter
i remember when the pactards said that shawn porter is a better fighter than cotto and that he hits harder than cotto because he was a sparring partner of the pacman. i was like :wtf:
cotto was a way better fighter in the beginning of his career than shawn porter is today. he also fought way better opposition than shawn porter at this stage and looked impressive.
i know porter is still young and he needs to learn a lot, but to me he hasn't been impressive at all and a lot of people are saying that this guy is goin to be the next great thing.
I had porter. didnt score it, but i agreed more with the refs than tarver
Robinson was landing wobbly and sloppy punches. Porter was landing the better punches with more effeciency. Robinson was desperate and began to swarm and land slaps. Porter's power seemed to weaken as teh rounds went on, but he did a good job of ducking and slipping punches. Porter is still young, he just needs to calm his game down a bit.
