Omar Henry vs. Shawn Porter, who wins?

[savorduhflavor]

It's great how these two are getting compared already.

Reminds me of Kirkland/Angulo sorta, except I think his has started even earlier.

If they fight at some point it will be a fight that will have been in the makings for YEARS.

I've become somewhat chummy with Omar so I'm too biased for this thread. Maybe even too sexy.

[AKATheMack]

I go with Porter based on his energy level.

It reminds me too of when everyone was comparing Angulo and Kirkland, that's how I came up with the idea.

Two undefeated 154 pound bruisers that are also highly touted prospects. Who wins? Who's better? Who has more potential?

i Reckon Porter wins this one..

you should also keep your eyes out for two other guys Dominic Wade and Lenard Lane who could also make noise at 147 and 154

L.Lane is actually making 140lbs now and fighting on ESPN FnF in Cleveland. He is Omar's teamate as well. Also, part of the Henry, Lane rotation are Jermell and Jermall Charlo, both very good 147lb prospects.

Omar is solid at 154lbs and will remain there for quite awhile. He may go to middleweight eventually but not in the next few years..

As for the Porter comparision, at this point, Porter has many many more rounds on an elite amateur level than Henry, so he has a big advantage in being much more seasoned.

You cant really take anything from their pro bouts so far for comparision. Style-wise, they both have above average speed and power. I dont think anyone can say at this point which is the better pure boxer, and both have good defense, with Porter being slightly better at blocking punches. Henry has a very good body attack, but Porter's compact stance may negate that partially.

As for Omar being overly aggressive and leaning over his front foot, well 6 1st round KO's in his first 7 bouts will make you look like that.

Having more amateur experience dosent mean anything look at Sergio Martinez he didnt even have a amateur background and look how great hes doing plain and simple Omar will beat Shawn hands down Shawn is 1 dimensional while Omar is diverse he can box as well as brawl and has great defense with his tight compact punches very composed unlike Shawn.
