    Anyone surprised at the physical str. of Porter?

    The dude mauled Spence on the inside and out hustled Spence when it comes to shoulder to shoulder strength.

    For a 5'7 guy his strength is ridiculous.

        Not at all. He's made a career of bullying. His physical strength is all he has.
        Spence showed he's just as strong, but has better technique.

          What does height have to do with strength?

            Not by much though, many including myself saw Shawn winning the fight.

              Height gives you space to increase mass. Porter being a lot shorter than Spence means he has smaller mass than what Spence is as they have the same width when it comes to body.

              Mass = Strength, meaning Porter's packing much more muscle density for his size.

                Whoever you saw winning, I really hope you can see the different level of technique.

                    Said it before the fight , this would be some dirty dog fight
                    Also thought Spence would catch him towards the end but had a hard time adjusting to Porter
                    Porter has made a living by bull rushing in and applying pressure
                    Iron chin and tough sob but not much power on those shots when he does manage landing cleanly
