    His delusional groupies had already anointed him the P4P king before he'd beaten anyone :lol:

    Underdog bias much?

    Everyone scoring the fight close yet you manage to score it a shutout for Porter until the 11th.

    The 8th round for example was a clear Spence round so it’s crazy how you score it clear for Porter.

    Uk bros who watched on Sky. Did you hear Dave Coldwell’s cringeworthy screech when Porter got KD?

    I think it’s mostly that he was exposed as not being p4p top 5, he is a great fighter but should be between 12-20 on p4p lists

    Did you not notice the glaring size difference, for a start. But overall I agree with your sentiment re their performance.

    I scored that fight as objectively as I could and scored it 114-113 for Porter, I had him winning 7 clear rounds but I could see how they could give it to Spence. But 8 rounds to 4.... what were the judges watching?

    I like Spence too, but I don't think he's a p4p fighter yet, certainly not top 5 at least.

    No, really, after the fight Porter was like: "Ok, that was a nice sparring partner, who's next now? I'm ready after a couple of minutes."

    Good hard fought fight by both guys I think Like most of us thought Spence was going to get the dec anyway
    I thought Porter shaded it but the KD made it closer .
    This screams for a rematch but I doubt Spence wants one
    Judges cards are wide almost obscene two are anyway

    :lol: Ugas handled Porter better than Spence did and Ugas is C level for goodness sake. If Spence was a fraction of the talent and fighter his delusional DKSAB doe-eyed groupies have hyped him up to be he would've tooled Porter with ease.
