      Some have that power in the gloves and some don’t.
      I think that was the difference in the fight
      He just couldn’t hurt him
      Spence knocking Porter down , even though imo it was a flash knockdown , still showed he has some power
      If Porter had Garcia power , I think he could of really broken Spence down especially in the first part of the fight
      Porter did slow down in the second half , he really gave his all

        You've got to respect a fighter who will get in there with anyone. Brook, Thurman, Garcia, Spence..he hasn't ducked anyone. Rare for WWs these days.

        A throwback fighter, and a good one. He gives his opponents hell.

          Idk if he sat down on his punches and focused more on his technique he would generate more power?

          Proper punching placement can do wonders. Spence’s shot was just a sharp, accurate, picture perfect punch. It wasn’t even thrown that hard. It didn’t really look like he put a lot on it. It was just timed right, was sharp, and landed right where it need to land and at the right time and it scored the KD.

            I was thinking the same thing last night but I came to the conclusion that it would fugh up his unorthodox style
            Imo , it would be a big change up and difficult for him to perform at this point in his career
            I’ll give Spence that much , he is a very accurate with his shots when he is not being pressured
            Still , I can’t believe he has no power , he really never came close to a ko , even the knockdown imo was a flash knockdown

              Porters just one tough dude. He’s a big welterweight too. He has thick muscles I think it helps him absorb punches better.
