Comments Thread For: Shawn Porter Decisions Adrian Granados in Rough, Action Fight

[HarvardBlue]

I never seen something so bizzare in my life as the ref LITERALLY trying to help Porter in last 2 rds.

He was LITERALLY pushing grenados in the chest repeatedly & giving porter all the time in the world to rest whenever hed clinch,& he would keep pushing grenados over & over. Even the commentators said "this is starting to really annoy me how the ref is pushing grenados". Am I the only one who noticed this?

The ref was doing it the whole fight. It wasn't just the last 2 rounds. Whenever he called for a break Granados wouldn't wait for him to start the action and was eager to get at Porter. I guess the ref didn't like that and Granados never realized what was happening. He pushed Porter a few times also but not nearly as much as Granados. I've seen a few other refs take that agreessive approach when breaking up a clinch but I haven't seen in quite awhile. It really didn't do anything to change the outcome of the fight.

Complaining that he won, which is a bit odd considering he lost nearly every round. he did take alot of big shots to the dome so...

Concussion can make people delusional... Dont know why he thinks he won

[REYESdelBOXEO]

Shawn Porter vs. Danny Garcia
Shawn Porter vs. Jessie Vargas
Shawn Porter vs. Terrence Crawford
Shawn Porter vs. Manny Pacquiao

All good action packed fights, great for the welterweight division.

Shawn Porter and Adrian Granados impressed me

That fight was exciting and entertaining. Both impressed me with their durability and engine. Porter win convincingly against Granados. Porter was close to defeat Thurman in the first fight. I give Porter a good chance in the rematch to upset Thurman. Spence is another story, Porter can give problems to Spence during the fight; but, he will going to control the pace of Porter with those powerful body shots in the second half of the fight. Shawn Porter always made a fighter looking bad, winning or losing. I want to see more of Shawn Porter. Not shame in losing to both Kell Brook and Thurman, because Porter have that bull rushing style, plus his good engine.
