I wouldn't pick Porter as the poster child for ¨smart boxing¨, though

Yes exactly

[Redd Foxx]

Keith needs room to operate, which is why I think Shawn takes this.

[Caught Square]

Neither does Porter, at least not effectively because he just smothers himself.

Kell Brook already showed how to beat Porter. Clinch, clinch, clinch.

You don't even have to exert effort doing it. Porter's bull rushing style always leads to it. Fighters with such style like Porter, or adjust to such style, obviously hate it when a fighter wants distance to maneuver his punches, "the hell with your distance, I won't give it to you." Similar to Vanes chasing Lara all night, "f#ck with your distance fighting..."

I got porter by ko. Dont know why people overate thurmans power. He doesnt exactly have a great chin

[SterlingStained]

keith thurman is the house fighter.

porter cant compete with thurman's music skillset or hairnet.

Yea but you got knocked down by Broner in the 12th and if there would've been another round, he may have finished you off. Thurman would've dominated that guy. Fight is interesting, but I think Thurman takes it.
