    you know, there is this rumor after saturday...
    I heard that this trainer phoned this retired boxer who wasn't impressed at all with the performance of this WW champion...We'll see what happens.

        I was pleasantly surprised with how entertaining the fight was. I though Porter would just smother Thurman and his own work like he has done in previous fights.

        Close fight and I would like to see a rematch. I still think Kell has the tools to beat either of these guys though.

          This was a very entertaining scrap.
          I thought Thurman won the fight but Porter showed his tenacity and toughness in great fashion. Both these guys are great to watch. These are the types of fighters that are a credit to this sport!

            I think Porter would do better against Mayweather than Maidana did. ¨Porter's pressure is more intense and his speed, endurance and athleticism is better than Maidana's.

              I agree with this.

                I watched the fight again tonight and I still feel it would have went either way.

                An interesting tidbit. During the second round, there was a part where you could see the commentators. Paulie was looking up and watching the fight. Bernstein and the other guy were watching their monitors only. LOL

                  I need to rewatch it as well.

                  I have it DVR'd.

                    Big shots all fight but I was amazed Porter didn't go down from this
                    Heck, I'm also amazed Thurman was able to stay on his feet and keep going too after those body shots he took.

                      That was a monster shot!
