      I don't think Porter is so reckless as to keep rushing into Thurman's punches. Once he feels the power early, the fight will settle into more of a chess match.

      Thurman UD.

        For all the blame thrown on Brook and Broner (who certainly deserve blame), Porter plays a big part in the clinches in his fights. He does smother his own punches way too easily, which forces clinches. He initiates them as well because he is smothering his own work.

          This coward is gonna retreat and run like the bish he has become. One of boxing biggest poosies. STFU you coward if you cant back it up. Porter will hunt you down.

            I can see Thurman getting frustrated by not getting time to tee off on Porter.

            It will come down to clean shots from Thurman vs work rate from Porter.

            As Thurman (IMO) is no more skilled than Brook, I can see a very close fight that goes the full 12.

              I think Thurman will crush Porter. Predicting knock out in the middle rounds.

                Thurman is talented but I'm a bit on the fence about quite how good he is. His latest fights haven't been that impressive.

                  A GGG fan shouldn't call anybody a coward or a "poosie".

                  GGG stayed in the amateurs until he was damn near 30 and won't take risks as a pro.

                  K2 has him on a short list for a reason.

                  At least Thurman is in a competitive division.

                    Thurman will have no trouble teeing off on Porter.

                    Early KO for Keith.

                      100%..I know anything can happen in a fight, but i'm honestly wondering why anybody thinks otherwise..
