    These two are not the best. This should have been a draw and if anything, showed how limited and lacking these two really are. The reason this was an entertaining fight was because they are on the same level, but they are far from top level.
    Thurman cannot box, he can't jab, his sight is poor in exchanges (just swings blindly) he has 2 punches in his arsenal.
    Porter can't throw punches correctly, he is slow, no jab, just sits on your chest and throws poor shots.
    These two are not good enough to be called the best at welterweight.

      Good fights happen when the best fight the best in their division. Hats off to both guys that was a good fight, FOTY

        Screw you Boxingscene with your bulls**t scorecard. You had the 4th round 9-9 and then changed it 10-9 in Thurman's favour!

            Extremely close fight.

            Draw or a point either way, I wouldn't complain.

              Great fight with fair judging. Thank you Thurman, Porter, their teams, PBC, and everyone else that made this fight.

                  Fight could have easily been scored 116-112 for Thurman. Crowd is a bunch of morons

                    No way in hell Porter lost that fight. You could tell by the commentary and bogus sho card they were gonna rob Porter. This is BS. Porter was hurting Thurman in several rounds. Bad decision, shame on PBC.

                      A more accurate description would be when they both let their hands go and don't try to negate each others offence via hugging (like Kell Broke).
