That was a fun fight.

I seen several right hook elbows along with the headbutting from Porter. That will knock anybodys game off.

Can any fighter in history match Berto's earnings to good wins ratio? I'm not talking about guys who won the lottery Charles Martin style. I mean guys who earned 7 figures for years despite never having a significant win. It blows my mind that Berto still gets headline fights.

I might be in the minority here but I think Berto could have made a good fight of it if Porter didn't come in head first on every exchange. I fully expected Berto to come off the canvass and be stopped in later rounds but what I saw last night was closer to MMA than boxing. What should have happened is the ref giving Porter a hard warning for the head butts and then a point deduction. That would have forced him to fight without the roughhousing or butts. I think he still could have stopped Berto in something more entertaining.

Awful fight to watch. A shot fighter against a wrestler.

Headbutts, elbows, rabbit punches, holding....

I hear you! Even in MMA you are not allowed to head butt a guy 20 times!

Porter is just horrible... should have been DQd.

Short Porter gives great effort every time in the ring. What great effort and drive Porter shows. I have to give credit to Porter for being a competitor and a warrior with courage and heart. Granted Berto lacks heart but Porter simply beat the hell out of Berto. Boxing needs kids like Porter and his dad.

If misbehaving crude Adrian ****** Broner had a Daddy like Kenny Porter then Broner would be respected and admired and not laughed at and poked in fun. Broner got that parade float helium filled round 500lb Daddy who mooches and gives zero guidance to misguided Broner. The Porter's are just a role model of what a boxer should be like with his dad involved.
Parenting and guidance and family love is so important to these untamed ****** kids.

I totally agree with you on the father/son comparison, but as far as boxing goes, Porter's fights are an eye sore to watch.
