    Yeah I reckon he would have beaten spence had the GGG fight never happened. When a doctor tells you that you were close to blindness, then the exact same thing happens again you will mentally fall apart. And it was a spence head butt. I don’t care what any keyboard tough guy says, nobody is risking their sight.

    Hearn just seems to want kell to disappear now despite kells years of loyalty, sad.

    I hope we get a second installment, but unless there's a KO either way it'll just be more scoring controversy. I feel like those inflexibly convinced you couldn't score last night for Porter are incapable of giving him credit in a rematch, and conversely those inflexibly convinced you couldn't score it to Spence won't score the rematch for him no matter how it plays out (unless he scores more knockdowns in enough rounds that mathematically they have to :sisi1)

    Some of the scores are laughable. People saying X won comfortably / clearly are fan boys.

    See it all the time on here,doesn’t seem to matter what happens in a round as they’ll score it for the one they like.Some would have you believe it’s extremely difficult to score fights,what a load of tosh,my grandma could score most fights.A lot of this could be remedied if folk would be more agreeable on scoring even rounds instead of scoring every close round to their man.

    Only saw it once and in a volume fight I don't care what anyone says you don't usually score a fight accurate unless you count punches from BOTH guys that ACTUALLY land.

    I scored it 8/4 for Spence.

    Cant see how the judge can give it to Porter ,really ?But ive been wrong bf scoring lighter classes so? I just don't see that. Larry Hazard Jr.

    I know I scored accurate enough to give Porter no more then 5 rnds and that's stretching it,ppl are probably drinking as well and have them beer goggles on as usual on here to and had a knockdown to make it that much easier to score ? :godsdrink0nw:

    It was a tough fight to score but I had Spence just nicking it with the knockdown. I thought Spence would win easily and weren’t impressed but we know Porter isn’t an easy nights work. Spence will be beaten.

    Re-watched it again this afternoon. Still a terrific fight. I scored it 115-112 Spence this time. Spence's consistent body work and cleaner counters caught my eye even more in the second go-round, particularly in the closing third of the contest.

    Great fight! Close enough for a rematch but I wouldn’t count on it. Spence will probably pick another easy win as he has done in the past. Porter has a crazy good gas tank and fought a great fight. I was sorry to see him get knocked down in the 11th but still think he won enough rounds to at least get a draw. I want to see these guys do it again because it was one of my favorite fights of the year.

    I was having a laugh with some of the lopsided score cards on the RBR. Some people are either clueless in scoring or extremely biased haters.

    I had it 114-113 for Porter, and I like Spence too and despise Porter... I thought Porter won 7 clear rounds, but that's just me though. It could have gone either way, won't argue with anyone having Spence winning.

    Bullying someone doesn't win fights. Landing punches wins fights. Defense wins fight. EFFECTIVE aggression wins fights. Ring generalship wins fights. That's how you score a fight.

    True. That was more than what Porter did though

    People fall for him coming forward and throwing wild ass shots that are hitting arms and shoulders.. Very few of his shots were effective last night
