Gotta say 3 things:

Broner has some legit tattoos on him.
Porter looks great. Persona and everything.
Greco is a good-looking dude.

Broner looks like a bum, the can man.

I didn't realize there would be that much a height difference between Spence and Greco, but maybe its because of the shoes

Is Lo Greco even in shape? Doesn't look it.

Broner best bring his A game!!!

Bit random but does anyone else think the headband is fu@king ******?? He's not playing tennis....

Porter looks healthy, I thought he would be visibly drained. With the re-hydration clause off too this fight looks a lot more competitive than I originally thought. Go Porter.

Spence is going to have his hands full, Phil Lo Greco was one of the guys who was able to stop Brandon Hoskins.
