    I expect Garcia to announce his retirement after this loss, imo.

    De Omnibus Dubitantum.:deal: Even the sexual harassment part, ask for specifics. Wolf whistles, being hit on, flirted with, being asked out on a date and being simply complimented... isn't harassment, real harassment has to be persistent after being told to quit. Women due to all of the brainwashing by the media and their teachers have a really warped incorrect perspective now days of what true harassment really is.

    Yes he has, and he's also had several successful hotels, golf courses, casinos, and various other business ventures that have been a success. In business, you win some, you lose some. But the most important thing is, he's malleable, he's not an ideologue, he's a pragmatist, if something isn't working, he tries something else. He isn't married to any failed ideas. That's just what this country needs, a versatile leader open to anything that'll work and discards all the ideas that fail.

    Have to disagree with you on this. There's guys whose way of hitting on / flirting with girls does cross the line. I think your viewpoint above is slightly in danger of allowing a healthy scepticism about some of the hysteria around normal human sexuality being rebranded as 'micro aggressions' turn into a blanket dismissal of some genuine problems in the way a minority of people behave.

    Still, maybe beyond the scope etc..

    Anyway, delighted for Porter.

    Also pleased that Martin at least regained some honour and relevancy in defeat. Doesn't get my sportsbook money back but at least he maybe has a shot at resuming a good career at HW.

    No, not really. I should have clarified what a said a little better. Every accusation of harassment should be taken on a case by case basis, not a blanket acceptance of every claim, or a blanket dismissal. I know that's a lot to ask of most people because in spite of the endless complexities pertaining to virtually every issue, people prefer to take the lazy easy way out and stereotype everything by lumping it all together. Clearly if a guy comes up and grabs a girl's ass, or if he makes an incredibly lewd comment, then that's crossing the line.

    Frank Warren on IFL said Boxnation is better than ever.


    I'm starting to believe him.

    Both are tough it’s just Porter is a weird/rough style with his jumping inside moves like a crazy ninja at times.
    Plus Porter seems to never ever RUN out of gas which is amazing
    It goes to the final bell

    Garcia should have won that and would have if it wasn't for his history of receiving decisions in razor close fights.

    Porter rarely caught him clean with the 100's of wild swinging punches he threw , most which fell short or too far with the rest landing on shoulders and arms.
    Garcia had better defense , accuracy , and landed more and cleaner shots to the head.

    Porter didn't do half as good against Garcia as Peterson did. Peterson spent multiple rounds busting Garcia up and came away with a loss.

    Garcia after Peterson^ The only marks he took against Porter came from headbutts.

    Bad luck for Danny thats all. It was a very close fight that didn't go his way this time.:smile:
