Also porter has way more energy than just about anyone he never gets tired that’s not the case with manny and Terrance as they take rounds off you just can’t use this fight to compare with Crawford or pac.

    I will say this though Crawford can beat him but it wouldn’t be no walk in the park there wasn’t any exposing as some people on here are trying to make it seem.



    good post man

      What is most irritating is the people who are shouting 'exposed' were the same ones that were saying he'd have an easy night before the fight...this flip floppers are the most annoying.



      they got exposed... that was always going to be a tough fight

        Spence's accurate punches and the knock down were the difference.
        That said, Porter showed if you take the fight to Spence he's not hard to hit and a better puncher might have had him in trouble.
        This is absolutely correct
        I don’t think Spence was exposed but we did learn a few things about the man
        As you stated and that’s why I believe that him fighting Garcia ( if he does ) will tell us about his chin
        Porter unfortunately for him , could not come close to hurting Spence at all
        I was totally convinced that Porter would have some success early on but I was also 100% convinced that Spence would adapt and get him out of there
        So in reality , imo , he also showed he has a hard time adjusting and where the Fugh was that power
        Don’t give me the Garcia fight as an example as I thought Spence was just cruising

            I will have to be honest. I don't see this version of Erroll Spence, Jr. Who just fought Shawn Porter defeating Terence Bud Crawford. For one, he ate too many clean combination punches to the head; Two he was outboxed by the much shorter Porter and lastly he was simply outworked by Shawn Porter as well.

                Styles do make fights but special fighters in their prime dont struggle that much against Porter level opponent.
                And what is "Porter level" guy? Porter is two time world champ and clearly top 5 in division.

                  The majority of professional fighters interviewed predicted it would be a rough fight for Spence.

                  Porter is a tough outing for anyone.
                  Then how come the betting odds don't agree with these predictions?

                    Well I had Porter winning the fight closely as did many fans but Spence certainly wasn't exposed. Still an excellent fighter and Porter could have been a bad match up for him but his rep as the boogey man did get exposed. He's not the destroyer of worlds many thought and he's showing more and more flaws. Pacquiao, Crawford, healthy Thurman, and hell maybe even Garcia have a shot at beating his guy. He's not above the rest as he and his fans thought.

                      Correct. I agree with you both.
