I can say that Porter definately roughed Spence up and made him look beatable/ordinary. And I didn't like Earl straying low with his bodywork. But same time, I felt Earl's shots looked meatier, was a couple of occasions I thought "maaaan, Porter can't take much more of this...", thought I saw him slowing down a few times, but then he'd come firing back. Let's be honest, it was a very very good fight, fought at a relentless pace. I will have to watch/score it again.
Earl Spence's party lifestyle/weight gaining between fights is catching up.

Sounds like excuses. Spence just wasn't this unbeatable force many thought. Neither is Crawford IMO. I think all the top 5 welterweights are pretty evenly matched. People keep saying that Spence and Crawford were levels above the rest but we're seeing that's not true.Comment

Spence doesn’t fear anyone’s power at 147 and he’s always walking forward so a work rate guy like Porter was going to look good against.
We have to stop discredit Porter here just to bash Spence. Porter fought a damn good fight, Spence obviously won but we knew that would be the case. We just didn’t expect a dog fight like it was but Spence never looked like he was in position to lose in my eyes.Comment

I doubt Spence is sitting in the pub smashing 15 pints of Guinness, following it with a kebab and chips and a pizza on the side, and then doing blow off a hookers arseComment

LOL. Spence doesn't drink at all and lives a relatively quiet, country boy life. Idiots love to gossip and make up lies on hereComment

Good morning all of you 'YDKSAB' folks (about 92% of my fellow posters).
What we seen happening last night/tonight is Earl Spence's bad lifestyle when out of camp catching up with him. He is naturally too big for Welterweight, and the cut showed in the mid-late rounds. The same thing happened with 1hourRun 's favourite fighter Ricky Hatton. No man is invincible, and Spence is handicapping himself and cutting time off his prime with his lifestyle.
Logically speaking, he probably shouldn't fight at Welterweight ever again. Won't surprise me to see him boiling down again to 147 though. He looked as beatable as I've ever seen him tonight/last night. And Porter didn't do anything extraordinary, we all knew (me and the other 8% who know their chit) what Porter was going to bring.
It's sad because Earl has gone from being a potential top 4-5 P4P fighter, to looking like his days as an undefeated fighter are numbered. He needs to start taking it seriously in and out of camp, and should seriously consider the move to 154. If he has another long layoff, hanging at other fighters' events likwhe a sloppy drunk, he is going to lose emphatically very soon.
It may be too late already.
Why you had to do that to me bruh? I was celebrating my moral victory in picking Shawn Porter to win by decision.
I got up just for a moment to get myself a snack after 'Showtime' Porter EXPOSED Errol Stench ass, and I came back to check on the reactions and see W1LL giving me a shout-out ; so I'm thinking : OH! They hating on Deontay for that Luis Ortiz PPV! Its time to SQUAD-UP! I SAYS
