Why don't boxers follow brooks approach vs porter?

[Kigali]

Not all opponents are as limited as Porter

This post won.

All brook did was shift lateraly the entire fight and throw the jab and straight right...He had the size advantage but that strategy seemed to throw Porter off completely.


Why try and engage with such a dirty fighter? For example, I think Thurman could win every single round if he would just box and move, land power shots when they are wide open.

Brook has a good punch and he locked porter up when porter came rushing in like a bull. Berto has no jab, he didn't use the uppercut early in the fight and he couldn't handle the head buts...

Brooke is so much bigger than Porter...he's a pretty big WW.

cause its easier said than done. and brook v porter was a clsoe fight still. remember there were a few media scorecards for porter, i had it very close.

[gmc_rfc_06]

Brook is strong as **** at 147.

That's the first time Porter grabbed someone, tried to push him to the ropes and couldn't budge him. Brook was stronger than him which nullified his dirty 'inside fighting' and left him with nothing.

Nullify him inside, box his ears off outside. I had that fight 117-111 Brook, Porter landed nothing.

Yeah why can't everyone do it like Brook?
Boxing is so easy...................when you've never been in a ring with gloves on with..................Porter? hahahahaha...


Should be as great as Sugarman in about 5 weeks!!

The problem is that Porter doesn't get fined by refs for diving in with the head, the guy uses his head like that big dragon head carved door cracking thing that orcs used when trying to penetrate the doors of Minastrith.

Brook should have been penalized for holding.

A lot.

To Thurman's credit, he made things with Porter a lot more exciting while beating Shawn much more decisively.

Berto's biggest mistake is not staying in the middle of the ring.

You know you are getting into a wrestling match with Porter but you should never willingly back into the ropes.

But, Berto had no legs...

Ahh the replication scenario LOL

Look at how many fighters since Floyd have made themselves look like fools trying to replicate the shoulder roll LOL

Porter fights like a caveman.His style is a head first primitive,mauling,wearing you down one.If you can box and stick and move,you'd retire him.
