    I kind of agree with that, he was more accurate than usual, but alot of what he was doing was ugly and and some spots DIRTY. it was close but I felt Swift was better, more accurate and precised. It was close, and I won't complain about the decisio, but a wide decision for Porter is bs.

    Funny enough I actually think Garcia is a scarier match up for me against Spence. Garcia still has that one punch left hook ko shot. I don't see any way Porter wins. Spence is the superior inside fighter, mid-range fighter, and long-range fighter. Maybe Porter will try and ko him with another one of his special headbutts.

    Wide is fine, it could be anywhere from 117-111 to 115-113, those first few rounds were razor close, Porter took over in the middle, then the last 3 tightened up a little.

    Agreed, I was on Garcia tonight but props to Porter. Garcia has actually faced better competition than Spence yet Spence gets a ton of hype for beating Brook after he got dismantled by GGG?

    Spence-Porter is an interesting fight. I think Porter's style might do well against Spence, who leaves his body open which Porter can exploit. Also, Spence's chin is still a question mark, you can't say that about Porter (or Garcia for that matter).

    Onetime said it ,Swift needs to up his work rate if he's going to win these close fights.

    Damn you think it's going to be that close huh. I got Spence by clear UD or stoppage. Spence is just non-stop work. But Porter is definitely tough, he took Thurman's best shots and trucked on forward. Imo those shots Thurman landed on Porter would have put a lot of WW's out cold.

    Nope. I've always thought he was an overrated hypejob, he's a plodding blown up Light Middleweight southpaw weight bully, nothing more.
