    Fight of the year. No problem with the scoring at all, I think a case could be made for either guy.

      I don't know how Porter manages to fool people with his style, it's no different than the Brook fight again, granted this fight was more competitive but Porter was largely ineffective when he had Thurman pinned on the ropes. There were even instances when Thurman landed the better shots against the ropes.

        WTF?

        Who wouldnt want to see that again?
        I don't. I can't stand watching Shawn Porter fight. He has no concept of adaptation. Fought the exact same way against Brook and Broner. The only reason he won against Broner is because Broner didn't fight back.

            He's gonna say they were robbed

                It is now proven. Broner hits harder than Thurman.

                  Keiths face says otherwise.

                    Entertaining performance by these two men on the highest stage. Correct decision was rendered. Let's get a Thurman-Garcia unification in 4 months on the same channel.

                      His counters were big shots, but they were not often.
