    Being hurt to the body once does not mean Thurman can't take body shots. Anyone and everyone can be hurt to the body.

        A black fighter's Kryptonite is another black fighter, therefore the outcome is very unpredictable.

        Whoever is more black on the day of the fight will win. It's a spiritual thing. Whose spirit will be dominant?

        If you ask me, I think Porter will prevail -- he has two black parents; whereas Thurman is the offspring of a black person and white person.

        Now this might not be very significant but I think it will matter. Both boxers have above average black aggressiveness, black fast-twitch, and soul. I think it's gonna simply boil down to toughness, which I give the edge to Shawn. I see Shawn as more of an silverback Alpha male bull. Keith is going to run away and try to pot shot. But if Keith believes in his true inner blackness, he can tap into his true power and physically put Porter in a vulnerable position to submit.

        Thurman is a very thoughtful, cerebral fighter. Now it's a good thing to be intelligent. But in this fight that thoughtfulness might be his undoing. When you're a strong black guy who is up against another strong black guy, victory will be bestowed upon the more uncivil boxer. And whoever throweth the better whopper punch. For example, Chad Dawson vs Adonis Stevenson. Stevenson just went in there and let his instincts take over. He didn't overthink it.

                Incredibly racist post...

                I can state numerous fights where a half black or mixed black fighter beats a full black fighter so disprove your comments. But I won't stoop to your level.
