Ward didn't fight a world beater, but he came back with a real solid performance and showed what kind a man he is by giving Smith back the money he lost to Ward on the scales. Not something he needed to do, but I respect the hell out of him for it.
Im going with Verdejo. 1st fight on HBO (my opinion he shoulda headlined) & to top it off he injured his hand I think it was in the 1st. So he basically fought the whole fight with an injury.
Its Shawn Porter hands down. With everything he had against him(weight, the promotion, contract and referee) he rose to the occasion. Broner was being groomed by Haymon to be his next big earner and Porter shut those plans down. So with all that against Porter he deserves fighter of the month.
