    Shawn Porter ****** as a fighter

    He was C+. Only thing he had going for him was he came in shape.

    Lost to Thurman, Spence, Crawford, Brook, and Ugas.

    Even looked like **** vs Granados

    Got dropped by Adrien fckin Broner.

    Why do people even care about this dudes opinion?

    He was also a boring fckin fighter. Grab and hit, headbut, grab grab. No KO power.

    I remember he was so desperate for attention he made an account here and started posting.

    WHen the going got tough vs Crawford his daddy saved him.

        I don't really disagree to be honest.

        Decent fighter at best.

          Bum rushing opponents with wide sloppy punches and smothering his work didn't come easy, took a lot of skill and practice. He did beat Jacobs, Usyk, and Andrade in the amateurs.

            He also should have had an L to Julio Diaz.

            I think Shawn Porter was a legit top 10 welterweight though. Even though he lost a bunch of fights, that happens when all you fight is top 10 fighters. Porter fought almost every welterweight that was ranked as #1 by The Ring in his time.

            The only #1 ranked welters he didn’t fight were Mayweather and Pacquiao and that was simply because he just never deserved those fights. Never beat who he had to to beat.

            It’s also fair to say that Porter was always competitive even against the best. I remember, for me, when he showed he wasn’t elite, top 3, was when Kell Brook beat him.

            With that said, Shawn Porter is Terence Crawford’s best win, which is sad.

              All top WW are fruads then. He gave Spence, Thurman and Crawford a run for their money. But I must admit Porter did have an ugly style and he smothered all his work.

                  I like Porter he worked hard and maximized his talents, I don't remember him ever coming off as an unpleasant guy either.
