Well hey it's gotten him pretty far, but I do feel he could be a much better fighter, there's a lot of potential.

Porter can be a HELL of a fighter if anyone taught him how to properly work inside. It is very hard to stop him from closing distance, but he doesn't make the most of it once he is there.

porter looks like he has a low ceiling talent wise. strong mandingo body, amazing fighting spirit tho and that can overcome poor technique sometimes...

That's exactly who and what Porter is. He isn't the most skilled fighter but he can make up for it with his aggressive style and heart.

not a good look for thurman's potential to have struggled with a fighter like porter.

Boxing is about style matchups. A style like Porter, on top of being a little Energizer Bunny, is going to give guys like Thurman all types of trouble because guys like Thurman prefer to have a bit of distance. Having a guy all up in your face every second is not what Thurman wants. Thurman is probably good enough to box and move more and make it a boring fight (ala running to some fans) but he also chose to go to war. I'm guessing in a rematch he's going to use his feet a whole lot more (think Mayweather vs Maidana I compared to the second fight).

I put too much stock in his musical ability and bone thugs n harmony hair.

Don't you dare give up on Bizzy Bone now, he fought his ass off!

I agree, he gets in and just wastes energy

[Doctor_Tenma]

Just utilize the jab more, I can't think of anything else he can add to his arsenal, he is who he is.

I kept reading **** THUG when you actually said **** HUG.....call your father and tell him you love him.

If Maidana was a physical specimen freak and had less skill, he would fight similar to Porter

[RussB23]

Because thats what got him to the pros and he isnt going to stop now. Dude is strong and has decent power and good conditioning so he can keep coming the whole fight, so he probably doesnt really give a **** about proper technique
