      Thurman did okay against Guerrero inside. Porter is a lot rougher to deal with though because of his lack of technique. He just runs into his opponents.

      I think Thurman pops Porter's respect early and mostly keeps that from happening. He's a pretty sharp counter puncher. If he doesn't though, it could be an ugly fight with a lot of clinching.

        Thurman is a boxer first with power. Unless he get unexpectedly caught with something he is not getting dominated by Porter.

        Porter can wear him down if Thurman is not ready for that type of fight

            We will find out a lot more about Thurman's real ability and potential if he beats Porter.

            Porter is almost impossible to look good against, and Thurman will do really well to land clean.

            I like Porter to win by a 12 round swarm and smother fest.

              And you're a very fragile cholo.

              Thurman is going to destroy Porter.

                Thurman has all the tools to win, however if u look at him 8 days before this fight and 8 days before his previous fights, he looked much skinier and more defined before his previous fights, hopefully he doesn't have trouble making the weight for this fight and if he's in a good shape( which is what i somehow doubt) he should be able to beat Shawn easily.

                  No, I actually see Shawn Porter being dominated this Saturday. Shawn is a bruiser. He is a one dimensional fighter, who is very predictable and can only fight on the inside.

                  Moreover, he stands a bit too erect for my liking; Which will make him very susceptible and prone to Keith Thurman's rights hands as he tries to get on the inside.

                  On the other hand, Thurman is much more diverse, he can **** as well as box on the outside. The key to victory for One-time is to implement a lot of lower body movement by keeping a proper distance, tying Porter up whenever he is in too close with his shorter arms, using a telephone pole jab and lastly, shooting those right hands at will as Porter rushes in.

                  If this strategy is implemented then Keith would be highly successful come Saturday night.

                    Three days left and looking forward to another boring clinching festival.

                      Porter is going to ravage Thurman's skinny half white body and glass jaw. Shawn is a pure bred black, not a mutt-lato like One Time.
