No Porter wasn’t robbed he was competitive for the first 2/3 of the Fight then let the fight get away from him and he got KD
No Robbery if anything the Judge That scores it for For Porter should be banned
Do we agree that Porter clearly lost the last 3 rounds? (I hope we do). Including the knockdown in the 11th(2 point round). The ABSOLUTE ONLY WAY this would be a robbery is if anyone had porter up 8-1 or 7-2 going into the 10th. Even if you had it 6-3 in favor of Porter going into the 10th, that's a 1 point victory for Spence with the knockdown. We can debate rounds 1-9, but 10-12 were Spence's. And I need for someone to explain how they had a 8-1 or 7-2 card for either fighter going into the 10th.
Agreed, Spence closed out the show and won the last three rounds emphatically, and this fact alone makes it difficult to give the fight to Porter.
All three judges gave the last three to Spence EXCEPT the judge who scored the fight to Porter (he gave the 10th to Porter, and 11 and 12 to Spence), but that judge also gave Porter the first four rounds, which is amazing to me, especially the third round. In fact, if you look at the official scorecards, that judge has initially written in '10' for Spence in the third, but then crossed it out!
not to defend Spence's actions, but Porter actually hit him low first and he was retaliating. If Lomachenko had did that against Salido, he probably would have won their fight. That's old school. If someone hits you low, don't complain to the ref, hit him back. Both of them were hitting low all nightI get all that! That was Spence strategy all along. To wear Porter down to the body in order to KO him. Kill the body then the head would follow.
However, throughout the fight Spence subsequently and repeatedly landed several more low blows that the referee didn't even warn him about. Also, he kept leaning on the back of Shawn Porter's neck too.
In any case, knockdown or no Spence did not win this fight. He lost. Porter was the rightful winner of this fight.
Most boxing fans believed that Porter either won the fight or at best it was a draw.
Anyone who calls it robbery is - well, let's call it ignorant/uneducated fan - and should learn to watch fights closer and see what punches actually land and carry impact.
Good fight, Spence won - even if You feel Porter edged it You can't really complain and You're just looking dumb if You do, in my opinion of course!
I thought Spence should have been penalized or had a point or two deducted for repeated low blows. He landed a lot of blows below the belt line. Those dick punches hurt and the irony of it is that he calls Porter a dirty fighter.

It was expected.
Why give it to the real winner when you can keep making money off a hypejob like Spencer

I posted this 10 minutes ago i ****ing knew it
Shawn wasn’t robbed. He lost a close tough fight. Get out of your feelings and stop trying to force things into your pre fight narrative.
IDK why people were predicting a Spence KO.
Porter was never stopped, his losses were all close competitive fights.
And as I said yesterday, he was the more experienced of the two, with a deeper resume.
Porter:
- Garcia
- Thurman
- Ugas
- Brook
- Broner
- Malignaggi
- Berto
- Alexander
He had the deeper resume and experience. He was Spence's biggest fight yet.
It was a close fight but Spence is the PBC's top dog at Welter so unless Porter was knocking him out Spence was always getting that decision. I dont know how many more PBC cards we are going to see this happen in until people wake up to these facts.
It’s not sir.

Did anyone have Porter ahead 8-1 or 7-2 going into the 10th? Because he clearly lost the last 3 rounds. If you want to cry robbery, you had to have Porter ahead 8-1 or 7-2 going into the 10th and I just don't see how that's possible.
It’s not sir.
