    Shawn Porter is a good solid fighter, world class. But he is not elite level.

    Porter is the american version of Derek Chisora, but ever so slightly more sophisticated.

        If he is overrated, Thurman and Spence are also overrated.

          Porter has beat or lost to the best of his generation. Everyone who fought him will tell you that, except for maybe Bud. Hate if you want, your opinion dont count for ****

            Lol here we go. Spence only just beat him so what does that make Spence? Crawford beat him like a champion should.

                Depends how high someone rates him.

                He’s a solid fighter, far from elite.

                Loses almost every time he faces a top level guy.

Gave them hell but couldn’t close the show to get a win at the top level. Him and Danny are in a similar league, good fighters but a notch below the elites.
                  ^^ This nobody out here calling the man a GOAT .......What he is , is a game dog that is a tuff fight for anybody ...

                    Jeeeesus I hate it around here after a big fight weekend…people just get real ****** because their feelings are hurt!

                    Y’all were breaking your necks after Spence/Porter a couple of years ago (both fought once since then aside from Saturday) and everybody made it a big deal about how Porter took Spence to deep waters, x, y, and a and now THIS?!

                    You hate to see it.

                      Hell no! He has only been overmatched just one time in his career and that was against Terence 'Bud' Crawford. Which goes to show just how good Terence Crawford really is which is why he is considered among many as the best P4P fighter in the world today.
