Comments Thread For: Spence: I Felt Porter's Power; Tougher Than I Thought

Porter won even with the knock down he ran Spents over

If anything it’s Spence’s chin that will be tested. Garcia has a cast iron chin, and he has a big Philly left hook. It’s going to get intersting when Danny lands a flush left hook

No Look Hook™

Thats cause he IS human, Spence is way overrated as proven in his last 2 fights...Crawford finishes him.

Until Crawford fights any of the elites at WW such as Ugas, Porter, Thurman, Danny etc ...he will remain the overrated one in my book.

I’m glad Spence decided to gut it out and fight in a phone booth with Porter....much more entertaining than his win over Garcia in which he showcased his boxing ability. Last night he showed he can win tough too. Few fighters have the talent to win against championship opponents through both extremes of talent. Bodes well for his career at the top

it prevented him from losing to the more aggressive fighter

he had no choice... because Porter was being effective

Golovkin should have listened to his corner when Sanchez implored him to fight... when Canelo was being effective

Can’t argue with that

I dont see anyone “finishing” Spence. Maybe out pointing him in a split decision at best.

Credit to Shawn Porter's technique is due. Fans have stressed that Shawn's rough style in the inside would complicate and present dangers for Errol Spence, however, Porter's footwork made him look to be a masterful slick boxer against stiff flat-footed Errol Spence.

I understand why Shawn abandoned the back-foot : winning a decision would be difficult by surrendering ground ; this would cost Porter the rounds to a judge that favors the come-forward boxer, and Porter is just a natural brawler at heart so eventually Porter would stand his ground and it would become a phone-booth brawl.

Porter made Errol Stench look basic.

Errol basic hmmm did you just start watching the sport, and you do realise Porter is one of the top guys that is always hard to beat.

You guys are something else , hell of a fight maybe fight of the year , top guys in shape and both hungry, the better guy edged it, if you think Errol is superman and expected to blast everyone I see how he doesnt live up to that, put things into perspective and he is real tough for anyone to beat.

I dont get this must be superhuman or they exposed lol.

LOS ANGELES Errol Spence Jr. never was what he considered hurt Saturday night. But some of those flush punches Shawn Porter landed during their 12-round, 147-pound title fight let Spence know he was in the ring with a powerful opponent. Porter snapped back Spence's head several times with right hands and attacked Spence's body throughout a highly competitive clash Spence won by split decision at Staples Center.

Porter is no cupcake. I personally picked a late round stoppage but I knew that it may go 12.

The thing I was almost certain about was a Spence victory. That style is tough. Floyd didn’t look great against Maidana the first time against basically that same style.
