Both fights had 2 top 5 guys in a very close hard fight
Both fights had a knockdown that affected the scoring
Both fights could realistically have been scored either way
Both fights had some fans crying robbery
(my informal scores had spence (115-112) and ggg (114-113) winning razor thin decisions)

IMO GGG/Derev had more drama and was a more chaotic war. Both were great fights. I had Spence Jr and GGG winning and don't really think either is a robbery, close fights can be close fights without being robberies. All 4 of those fighters stock went up.
uhmmm, when exactly did networks start appointing the officials?? Im pretty sure the commission does that.
And you think the commission is above everyone and everybody!?
Try it again! They can’t even get their own rules right!
I agree with the sentiments but I felt Porter won 8-4 or 7-5 and Dervyachenko won 9-3 or 8-4
This was a perfect viewing of A side star fighters getting protection by the judges/refs!
Spence not getting more warnings for low blows or even a point deducted plus getting more benefits of the doubt than Porter when he was getting outworked an outlanded on the inside and getting caught flush in the face!
Ggg getting protected by the ref when Dervyachenko attacked the body and kept warning him for punches that was on the belt line or higher and stepped in between them for no reason when Dervyachenko had Golovkin hurt!
An then Dervyachenko didn’t get the benefit of no doubt when he was outworking and outlanding Golovkin throughout the fight!
It’s sad that both men laid it all out in the ring and did all they could but get a knockout an still lost!
Only differences is that PBC tried to hide the corruption with the split decision while DAZN surprisingly didn’t even try to hide their corruption by giving Unanimous decision!
Both Porter and Dervyachenko deserves immediate rematches!

The difference is Spence's kd was legit
GGG's kd was due to a punch behind the head (he kept rabbit punching Derev, several times during the match out of desperation, and the biased referee didn't do ****)
GGG's kd should have been invalidated
Derev beat him and it wasn't close. I gave GGG 3, 4 rounds tops
Spence-Porter was close. Triple Gift got a gift decission
lol, it was a legit KD and a KD is a KD. i mean, barrios got beat up from pillar to post vs akhmedov in the 12th and yet after scoring a flash KD at the end he got a 10-8 round.

maybe if GGG had scored that KD in the eleventh round like spence instead of the first the perception would be similar. watching spence-porter i felt that that KD changed the fight, spence winning the championship rounds gave him the edge in a tough fight imo. GGG scored the KD in the first and by the championship rounds that moment looked far away.

You can add Pacquiao vs Thurman to that list.
Stop it. Porter in no way could be seen as the winner. That was a clear win for Spence.
This was not a clear win for ggg. The comparison is a desperate attempt by a ggg fan to justify the cards for ggg that many disagree with.
I dont have to justify anything. I have no problem admitting that its quite reasonable for people to have scored the fight for Derev. There were easily 2 or 3 close rounds that one could score for either fighter.....

Not Even Close to being similar but it is funny to see some fans SCRAMBLE a bit for excuses
Honestly this fight was more like Mario Barrios vs Batyr Akhmedov (minus the second knockdown). In which Barrios dropped him early as well and Batyr Akhmedov applied the pressure more and fought his way back into that fight and I thought did enough for at the minimum a DRAW!
Derevyenchenko after the knockdown got up and started digging to the body and had GGG hurt to the body and BACKING UP. To every Power Punch he landed, Derevyenchenko was coming with Combos to the body
some of you guys need to stop watching fights on your 17 inch computer monitor and start paying for the streaming to see it on a bigger screen in your living room. close fight. SD had a higher work rate, but he also caught a lot of punches too. close fight that could go either way. I scored it for SD but this was no robbery.
Poor comparison. Your description fits this fight but not Spence/Porter. Just because a bunch of people got upset that Spence didn't lose doesn't make it controversial like this fight.
Yep. Spence won. Don't care who people had winning this one....
