        Some that's watching the same fight as me. Porter is the one making this fight absolutely dreadful to watch.

          The ref really needs to warn Porter about those rabbit punches.

            Of course he's the only one landing clean punches. Brook is best fighting on the outside and Porter is best fighting on the inside. The holding is preventing Porter from doing what he's good at doing. Brook isn't even that good fighting at the outside. If he was, he would have other ways from preventing Porter from fighting on the inside other than holding.

              That's not fighting on the inside. Mayweather fights on the inside. What Porter does is bumrush, smother his own punches and tap to the body.

                Name another fighter besides Diaz that prevented Porter from getting inside and mauling. And Diaz hurt him from the onset.

                It's not a skill thing. He'd do the same to Floyd. He'd get tagged with counter rights, but he'd still get inside and get clinched up.

                  Brook's primary method of defense has been clinching, and it's partially Porter's fault.

                    There's been zero real inside fighting in this fight exactly because Brook is preventing it with his holding. What you're interpreting as smothering, is Brook holding while Porter is just trying to get in whatever punches he can.

                      It was a poor version of Wlad vs Povetkin .
