It was an 8-4 affair, at the time of the fight like 90 percent of the people agreed Thurman won. I believe Porter has a right and his fight was much closer, but I don't get people trying to lump their fights together. Thurman beat Garcia clearly after a layoff.

I get the Porter fight..but why does Danny Garcia act like he fought Thurman close?

Because it was a split decision.. even if we all saw it differently he can try and make a case that it was close based on the scorecards.

He landed good shots and defended well but still lost the rounds
Danny should watch the fight and see why

It wasn't a year either, it was 8.5 months.

It was Porter's best performance thus far.
I was expecting a fight riddled with head butts and clinches as a result of Porter's bulldozing style.
I was pleasantly surprised there was none of that.
It was an extremely entertaining fight.
I was okay with a draw.

I thought Thurman had the early rounds easy and Garcia came on strong in the later half of the fight, I think Thurman won, but it was a good competitive fight.

Thurman clearly won 5 of the first 7 rounds easy. I give Garcia three of the remaining 5 rounds. 2 of those were toss up rounds. 7-5 is how I score it and that's being generous to Danny. it wasn't a close fight by any means. Close fights could go either way. This one could only go one way, Thurman's way.
