    ... voting for the poll here is still open: since the decision, the number of votes in Porter's favor just doubled...

        Thought garcia won the 1st, 2nd,9th and 12th clear and porter won the 4th and 6th clear.

        So one judge gave every other round to porter and two judges gave 5 of the 6 close rounds to porter

          Do the people who think Porter didn't land anything only judge based on head shots?

          Garcia was low activity because Porter was murdering him with body blows.

            Didn't score the fight round by round but felt like Porter won more rounds than Garcia when the 12th ended.

            There's something about DSG that bothers me, he doesn't really seem to be able to make adjustments or change gears. Hes too measured and when he needs to throw more or do something differently to counteract what his opponent is doing, it doesn't happen. I'm not sure of that a failure of his corner, his temperament or both.

              Re

              Some kind of NY regulation, about mics in the corners? Or just bad production? Angel and Kenny are two of the more intertaining corner guys, but SHO didnt have the mics on. I can still hear the guys, but barely.

                If Pacquiao decides on an easy payday with Khan.

                Porter should be looking to avenge that Brook loss. He'll ko Brook this time.

                  True, but what would it prove? He'd just be picking from the carcass left behind by Triple G and Spence.

                    Great fight. What lost it for Danny IMO was he didn't use the jab enough. In those pauses when he wasn't throwing power punches he should have used his jab and disrupted Porter's attack. Great fight though. A rematch would sell and probably do well financially.

                      Danny's always been a bit one-paced. He's really solid but lacks much in the way of versatility. He does what he does and that's it.
