    Since when is he a big puncher? He knocked out Paulie, otherwise he's shown decent power and nothing more.

      Gave Broner a beating and went toe to toe with Brook.

        Neither of which has anything to do with power. And Broner never looked particularly bothered.

                  I think Porter will close the distance early and hurt Thurman with something in the first two rounds. That sets the tone of the fight and Porter drops him around the 5th and again around the 7th. A lot of clinching from Thurman until he is TKO'd in the 9th rd.

                    More or less how I see it as well. Many people are overlooking Porter, I think it's irresponsible, Thurman is going to catch a real beating if he doesn't box, and he likes to fight it and that will be his downfall.

                      Porter leaps into a Thurman right hand in the 5th round and the rest writes itself
