    Spence clearly. He showed his quality and class especially winning the championship rounds. I had it 116-112 for Spence.

    Good post, age has to be a big factor, and as you say, SD is the better fighter out of himself and Porter

    It would’ve been a robbery if Spence lost. His work was thoroughly better than that Tasmanian devil **** that Porter brought.

    Chenko landed more power punches in every round except the first.

    Derevyanchenko is not better than Porter, I suspect they’re about similar level but Porter is more proven with the better wins.

    GGG was hurt often in his fight. Also, if he was such a beast, he shouldn't have fought tooth and nail with Canelo. People like to bring up how Spence didn't stop Mikey Garcia because he was was lightweight. Well Canelo was a 5'7" welterweight. At least Spence dominated his fight with Garcia.

    Spence of course but they’re in completely different times of their career. Golovkin is well into being 37, past his prime and he’s had his biggest nights already. Most thought Spence wouldn’t be troubled by Porter and most expected a close fight for GGG, against different but similar level opponents.

    Spence underperformed more than Golovkin I think.

    What a stupid argument.

    Canelo was a 5’7 welterweight as a kid. By using your logic I could turn around and say Spence couldn’t stop a 5’6 featherweight since that’s where Mikey has fought before right?

    LOL Canelo was the master of weight bullying so much that he is now going to fight at Light Heavy and I bet he will look like a tank...

    Probs will have to drain himself to get under 175 but will outweigh SK on the night..
