    I say Henry gets him on the ropes, drops him twice with body shots. By 3rd round, porter wants no more

    Shawn won, didn't look too good in my opinion.

    I for 1 think Henry is the better fighter all round between the two. Imo Omar would beat Shawn on skill alone and maybe even get the stoppage.

    Henry would slaughter Porter. But this fight would be better later in their carrers, right now it wouldmake much sense

    I think Henry would win but this topic is a little unfair at this time. "You're only as good as your last fight" and Porter struggled so it's a little lopsided. Now granted I'm sure if Porter KO'd his opponent in 3 rounds we'd get a bunch of hyperbolic statements saying he'd kill Henry...but que sera sera.

    I think Henry would win but I still need to see more of him.

    porter is going to be a espn top ten play getting knocked the **** out
    b-hop put it best saying he is easy to time because he bounces around then stops bouncing when he is ready to punch.
    the dude sucks and he looks like jamie foxx :rofl

    Porter wins this fight somewhat easily today...Omar will be a good fighter in due time but right now Shawn is too experienced and wont stand there to let Omar hit him...Now in 2-3 years this could be a mega fight and by then I think Omar absolutely demolishes Porter because I think Omar will get alot better and maybe Porter has bad habits that wont go away.

    Difficult to say right now. Both have been untested so far. But, if I choose right now, Henry.

    I'll go with Omar but, their both so early in their careers its not totally fair after Porter just fought and won unimpressively...

    I love how everyone jumps all over how Porter sucks when he looked mediocre against a 6'2" southpaw, after never having professionally fought a tall fighter or a southpaw before.

    I like both of them, and long-term, I like Henry better, but right now Porter would box his ears off.

    Porter's not with Top Rank, Henry is. Porter doesn't have a major promoter. He's with Prize Fight promotions.

    "Boxing his ears off" means you think he's alot better than Omar. I just don't see it.

    At this point, I think he is. Long-term, I like Henry better, but Henry is a lot more green than Porter overall. The guy's only fought one six rounder for christ's sake, and had about 240 fewer fights in the amateurs than did Porter.
