    I think Porter is a little more conventional than most people think. Yeah he will rough you up but he still tends to try and box. I don't think it will be too hard for Thurman to make him hesitant and keep him from rushing in. Keith is a good counter puncher.

        He will. Thurman is accurate & he hits hard.

          Porter has some decent boxing skills

                Yeah seems Wilder-Jennings is going to be on Showtime as well from Barclays. How crazy would it be if those were PBC fights?

                  Big fan of Shawn Porter. He's fought a good run of fights in the past couple years. And Thurman has been waiting for a fight like this.

                      It's always good when two closely matched fighters take a risk and face each other.

                      While Porter's style isn't always pleasing on the eye, it's effective, and it will be interesting to see how Thurman deals with it.

                      A 50/50 fight for me, i'm slightly leaning towards Thurman though.
