or Porter wins the first 3 rounds then "unintentionally" head butts Spence causing a stoppage and wins a technical decision.

I can only give you my opinion, I been consistent about fraud Mickey-Mouse Garcia before Spence and him stunk-up the AT&T stadium.Funny how that's the perception of Mikey AFTER he got schooled! Somehow we forget that he won a title @ 140 just one year before fighting Spence! This is how Mikey was viewed BEFORE Errol got in that azz:
March 15, 2019:
So when Garcia (39-0, 30 KOs), to the shock of many, called out Spence (24-0, 21 KOs) even before Garcia unified lightweight belts against Robert Easter Jr. in July, Spence answered the call. Of course he would accept the challenge from a smaller man he is heavily favored to defeat.
But there is intrigue. Boy, is there intrigue, because it's not too often that two elite fighters, both undefeated world titleholders on the pound-for-pound list and with crowd-pleasing styles, are willing to fight each other...
There is little question that Spence, who will be making his third title defense, and Garcia, who has won world titles at featherweight, junior lightweight, lightweight and junior welterweight, rank among the elite fighters in the world.
According to the ESPN poll, Garcia ranks No. 5 and Spence ranks No. 6. That alone makes their fight extremely significant. Both fighters believe that a win over the other, given their stature, should vault them to No. 1.
It remains to be seen whether that would be the case, especially if Spence wins because, well, he's supposed to...
Garcia is facing his third undefeated titleholder in a row in a third weight class. Last March, he moved up to junior welterweight and outpointed Sergey Lipinets to take his belt. In July, he returned to lightweight and cruised past Easter to unify two titles. Now he's going up two divisions to fight Spence...
"Size always matters, but when you get in there, at the end of the day, it's about skills and intelligence. I'm not going to rely on size," Spence said. "I'm going to focus on my talent. If I can roll through him, then I'll show my killer instinct and try to get him out of there. I'm going to use my ability to break him down."
Said Derrick James, Spence's trainer: "This fight is all about the skill set, not the size. Size will come into play a little bit, but we're going to show the skill set that we have to beat this guy. That's what Errol is going to show."
Spence Jr. did exactly what his trainer said he was going to do! Job well done!
I pointless mismatch is what the informed hardcore said, why wont Mikey fight Vasyl Bumchenko who was ahead of the P4P ranking? or his mandatory Jorge Linares arguably the #1. lightweight in the world we said. A cash-out was this fans said. There were more views other than those of joke ESPN columnist Dan Raphael.Comment

The "informed hardcore" should also know that Mikey struggles to make 135! If he were to get to 135, and Tank were to beat him, everyone would say Mikey was drained! If he got to 135 and fought Loma, and Loma was to beat him, then Loma should be in HOF the next day! Mikey can compete at 140-147, but he picked the wrong guy! I still give him a 50/50 shot to beat DSG or Pacquiao!Comment

It does not help Mikey's weight issues moving up to jr. welterweight whilst holding the WBC lightweight title, to make matters worse the clown moved up again to welterweight whilst still holding the WBC lightweight title.
For overkill Robert Garcia was recently talking about fighting Vasyl Bumchenko. Back to the topic, Showtime Porter should have more success against E. Spence than most expect.Comment

i don't think that porter is a dirty fighter perse, i think he is reckless and that's the reason of most of his foulsComment

let's be honest about spence-garcia. if errol could've stopped mikey he would've done it. the whole "wanting to outbox him to prove a point" is BSComment

Laughable.......I enjoyed that fight thoroughly though
Errol was a painter and Mickey was his canvas
That fight was art to me
I would pay to watch a replay, even though I can get it for free on YouTubeComment

Nah...shots to the back of the head are dangerous. That's not roughhouse. Porter is going to try to win for 12 rounds or till he can't get up, unlike Mikey. Zero comparison.Comment
