Why little to no hype for Thurman vs Porter??

[The Gambler1981]

Julio Diaz was able to back Porter up and he was totally ineffective. That's definitely something Thurman needs to do.

Porter has fast feet, good head movement and does a good job of getting under punches so it won't be that easy keeping him off of you. But if you can back him up, time him on the way in or even get off first and tie up, it negate everything he wants to do.

Porter is a mauler and he is pretty effective at it, but if someone can stand up to him and not be over powered he is kind of stuck.

I actually think the fight will be kind of ugly because of this, which is why i am not as hyped as others (but I always like to downplay my expectations for a fight so it can easily exceed then rather than be disappointed). Porter is going to try to mug Thurman because that is what he does and Thurman will catch him on the way in then have to grapple to keep Porter from mugging him. As long as Thurman stands his ground and lands his shots on Porter when he comes in he should be good.

If he lands enough to deter him it is curtains for Porter

Yeah. Unfortunately that's Porter fights in a nutshell. Thurman hasn't clinched a lot in previous fights but he will almost have to.

because no hype is needed

[Shogunofharlem1]

Agreed dude. This fights is in 3 weeks but instead of hype its threads about who mayweather is ****ing and what manny thinks of gays. WTF.

[fanofslug]

Pretty sad that one of the exciting and most competitive fight in boxing is getting very little attention despite 2 of the top dogs at 147 in their prime are fighting just couple weeks away, while ****** news about Mayweather-Pac and all that ****sexual bs is getting the attention .

I think that this fight is a treat for boxing fans and picking Thurman to win a close decision


Ps: Why there is no masterthread and official poll for this fight??

Probably because of how civil boobies they are to one another and boobies they're not really selling it boobies when they're not making noise about boobies hurting the other guy. They're quite dull and need to start digging boobies into each other.

I don't think he knows how to lol literally. Vs ghost he easily could have when back up or when he was hurt vs collazo

There's really is no hype for the event as a whole

[Nubia]

Thurman is going to clown Porter so easily.

Can't believe it took them this long to make this mediocre fight being masqueraded as a mega fight.

How can you call it a mega fight when there is no hype at all?
Almost 50/50 fight in my opinion. Could go either way.

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

believe it or not no one really cares about these two enough to talk about them other then their actual fights.

They both are boring as hell individuals. The type to not be able to pull any bitchies in real life due to being lames.
