    Can he ?

    We saw him outbox mikey's head off but he wasn't a full fledged welterweight.

    So now we see Spence here vs a full fledged welter porter

    Does Spence have the ability and IQ to outbox shawn porter ?

    I'm interested in seeing Spence use more of his IQ and skills in this fight than a knockout


    Thoughts?

    Yes, I believe he does. I think we will see a familiar Porter try to swarm and leap into Spence Jr. and rip his body with shots. Spence Jr. will no doubt keep Porter at range and fire straighter punches and keep very busy with his output and his movement, stopping Porter from gaining any discernible type of rhythm in game-plan.

    I ain't sure
    Eroll as all the advantages except stamina work rate
    Also shawn is durable and ain't a one trick pony the guy can mix shyte up when he wants to

    Good fight in fact a very good fight I'm looking forward to

    Mark my words of Shawn Porter comes forward bullstyle give it 3 rounds and Errol will adjust if he tries that Ugas boxing **** he did. Errol makes it real easy work. Now this isn’t too say Shawn can’t win but he would need to smother him and hope a elbow or head butt gets him

    Man, lets be honest, it's not so complicated to outbox porter. Porter's boxing skills are... well, limited.

    What's not easy at all is to outwork porter. The question should be: can spence outwork porter?

    Mikey is a tad taller than Porter. Spence will no doubt outbox Porter. Porter getting up on his toes only worked against Garcia, because Garcia is somewhat flat footed.

    Porter’s only chance is to make it an ugly fight and hope he can get the nod in a super close decision.

    Erroll has far more IQ and boxing skill. Porter lost to new comber 2 fights ago,although hes tough

    Don't forget what Kell Brook managed to do with just a simple 1-2 jab combo to Porter.

    I expect Spence to easily handle Porter’s caveman style. Porter is a great athlete but he’s not close to Spence’s skill level. Spence is a really good boxer and wicked body puncher. Porter might win a few rounds with his high energy level but I don’t expect this to be a close fight. Also, Porter is durable and I expect this to go the distance. Whoever wins this fight should get a ton of credit. Porter is way tougher than anyone Crawford has faced.
