This fight just had two opposing styles which made it great.
I can't imagine Postol and Crawford to be anywhere near as exciting as this.
But IMO, I felt the fight wasn't all that. But I much prefer fights where one guy is clearly superior. You know, Crawford/Gamboa, Mayweather vs. whoever, Manny vs. anyone not named Floyd, Spence vs. whoever, Wilder vs. whoever, Joshua vs. whoever (although I felt he LET Breezy go through 7)...
I like domination and skill in the fight. Not just two guys playing rock-em-sock-em robots.

Originally posted by Mr. Punch-Out!! View PostGreat fight! FOTY candidate for sure. Props to both.
Also, to anybody saying Porter was robbed and didn't lose that fight...STOP! It was a close fight but Thurman clearly got the win. He successfully fended off Porter's offense and landed the more significant shots. He buckled Porter's knees TWICE in that fight too. So really, nobody can make an argument that it was a robbery. It was a close fight and a great one but saying Porter was robbed is just plain ridiculous.
