    The Offical WAR Porter appreciation thread.

    I had $ on Spence at the weekend so was cheering for him, but i have to say i was always confused by the hate on Porter, little to no fans, yet he ALWAYS brings it. does he smother his work at times? yes, but how does Ward have a ton of fans yet he is arguiably more dirty and far more boring than Porter.

    He is always in exciting fights, always brings the heat, has a chin made out of granite and is a classy and humble guy outside of the ring.

    When Spence droppe him with a monster hook, as soon as he gets to his feet he is screaming at Spence. 'LETS ****ING GO THEN'

    WAR PORTER!

      Im on this train, nobody has had an easy night vs porter. Maybe not now after the spence fight but before hand hes been the sports most unappreciated fighter.

        I picked brook agaisnt him when only like 2 other ppl on the forum were, but that was a close fight, Thurman i thought was a draw and the Spence fight was extremely close.

        you could even make an argument that Porter is undefeated, IMO he has never been beaten by more than 2 rounds. never dominated, never badly hurt. even when Spence dropped him, Spence was the one that looked more shook, because Porter jumped up like a madman screaming at him

          Always had love for Shawn and his daddy.

          Always found it funny how people hate on him, calling him dirty, caveman with no skills etc, now that he's pushed everybody's new favourite fighter to his absolute limit...everybody wanna show him respect.

          He's a real top lad and an absolute nightmare for anyone in the ring at 147 and probably even 154.

            I started liking Porter after the Thurman fight. He's a class act, and always respectful. I don't recall having heard of him having legal issues, like some other boxers have. The guy isn't afraid to get in there with anybody, and gives everybody a tough fight.

            Boxing needs more guys like Shawn Porter.

              Good post pal.

              I thought porter would have battered brook, had brook just winning in the end but only just. I picked Thurman to edge him but wouldnt have argued either way. Solid fighter that nobody has had an easy night with both fights were close enough to go his way .

              Didnt see him pushing Spence as close as he did if im honest .

              Think i read somewhere that he beat usyk in the amateurs too.

                I picked Spence by KO. I never disliked Porter or anything.


                He was in great shape and really came to win. Plus he took his defeat like a Champ.
