    I hope Spence smashes Mikey otherwise I could see a situation in which Garcia-Spence ends in a draw with a rematch thus further delaying Spence's potential fights with Porter, Thurman, or Crawford. Boxing can suck sometimes

      Ugas by Decision, I see Porter getting clipped in this fight.

        Porter has toned down the wildness. The meeting he had with Berto to the more tamed approach he's had with Garcia seems like a legit positive to his awkward style...but I don't think he's in any rush to test that bull rushing squatting against the rangy more accurate Spence. That match up may play out similar to the Foreman/Frazier debacle.

          Porter has had chances to fight Spence in the past but he didn't fight him. I am not sure he wants to fight Spence at all. It would be a big money fight but if Spence knocks him out then his career and reputation take a big hit. I think he will beat Ugas and Spence will beat Mikey. I am sure Spence would love to fight Porter after Mikey but time will tell.

            Of course nobody knows for sure how any fight will end until it is over but I am almost certain Spence will smash Mikey and I am not worried about Mikey even lasting very long or getting a draw. MAN DOWN!

              I think you are right. His bull rushing style would be suicide against the accurate precise two handed bomber Spence. Broner hurt Porter badly and Spence is so much better than Broner. Nobody has gone the distance with Spence in a long time now. The Foreman vs Frazier fight is a good comparison.

                I only want Porter to win big, so I can hear his next excuse 4 swerving Spence. I feel as though, Pac is the only one that'll fight Spence.

                  Why is this reporter given Porter props for fighting his mando challenger on FOX and not throwing his WBC title in the garbage can? Porter wants nothing to do with Spence right now. I think Porter is a class act and I like him, but this article is unbalanced and seems oddly bias. The spin is so off that it almost appears that the author was compensated for writing this.

                    If they pay Porter the kind of money they are paying Mikey for this mismatch then I'm sure he would take the fight.

                      Mikey is making Porter and the rest of the top rated welters look bad. It has nothing to do with money. It has to do with courage, or in Mikey's case he is a bit over the top in the ****iness category, so hopefully Spence will knock him back into his proper weight class.

                      It's pretty hard to defend Porter, Thurman, and Danny Garcia in regards to ducking Spence.
