    60-40? Dre's being kind to Porter, at best I'd say 70-30 in favour of Spence. Porter's tougher than saddle-leather, but he's just not as talented nor has as much power or speed as Spence. You can never completely write off a hustling, rough, in-fighter though; sometimes pure boxers will get unsettled by that sort of style.

      Porter will not be a walkover by any means but I have Spence as a somewhat sizeable favourite in this one.

          I’m buying. It’s a decent fight with a good undercard. Dirrell vs. Benavidez should be a good one. Lots of action fighters.

            I have seen Porter get stunned more than usual as of late. His chin might be dented at this point. This is a tough fight for both guys but I think Spence stops him.

                I am buying it. Competitive fight with a good undercard.

                  When Ward makes a statement I pay attention. Andre isn't infallible but he's smart, knowledgeable, fair and honest.

                  The one thing you can't account for is the toll it takes for Errol Spence to make weight. A major component of his success has been his incredible ability to shrink down to 147 and re-hydrate. At some point that's going to come at a higher cost but when? Is this the fight?
