I think it's fair to say....

Note that I didn't say anything negative about both fighters. A win is a win is a win. And I like Porter in the Thurman fight. I was impressed. He went back to his old self in the Berto fight.

Re watch the Porter-Thurman fight folks. It's a shining moment for Shaun.

A win is a win is a win. LMFAO HOW tHICK.

I would definitely avoid these types of fighters if I were Thurman. They're unbeatable, especially in their primes. Porter-Thurman was a close fight. The win would have been awarded to Porter and only a few would object.

LOL oh sh^t didn't even catch that start date on this cat. I'm slipping.

It is a lot of new accounts and they all saying the same thing trying to still criticize Spence Jr or they trying to match him up with Old Greats or trying to get him to move up and fight Canelo or GGG

Just posted in this thread to say:

They are nothing alike.

[Kigali]

that Spence is just the bigger version of Porter. That if he had the same size his fights would end up in numerous head butts?
How many times did the Brook fight end up in clinches?
A good boxer strikes, get out, strike, out and move, rinse and repeat. Spence/Porter box initially, and if they can't get anything from the exchanges they impose their will, brawl and force themselves in by hook or by crook.
Then try to get something out of the clinch...being more comfortable and safe in that state.

Get your dumb ass off the computer.

Spence doesn't smother his offence like Porter.

lol..what?

[gauze]

you're almost always gonna have more tangles and clinches when you have a southpaw fighting an orthodox fighter. porter usually just rushes in head-first regardless of who he's fighting.

porter and andre ward is a better comparison IMO.

You've just exposed yourself as a complete casual who DKSAB

Just wondering why there wasn't a single 10 sec. uninterrupted exchanges in the Brook-Spence fight. Kell was hoping for that kind of fight. Spence wasn't, apparently. He has to force his way in when he knows it would end in a clinch, and when he can have the option of moving out of reach.
