    I'd call it not being able to shorten punches and not fighting inside well, but also i never said it was wrong, just that it is a catchphrase to sound intelligent on the fight.
    you may genuinely been using that phrase for years(and may have used that phrase to descibe another person besides porter), but most people are just repeating a phrase that has been thrown around so much it is a safe thing to say, they have never used it or even heard it used for another fighter.

    agreed on his dad, not a bad guy imo, just a bit out of his depth.

    i'd 100% watch a rematch, but it'll likely take a few more fights to get made, depends on demand.

    I knew Porter would never get the benefit of the doubt if it was a close fight.

    I felt Porter won a close fight but can't be upset about Thurman getting the L.

    Really wanted Porter to win because he looks like he wouldnt duck anyone but just when it looked like he was going to win a round clearly and change the momentum Thurman would land 1 or 2 hard shots and slow hime dowm

    Yeah he did. Landed the most effective blows. Porter smothered his own best work. KT made Porter run into shots and landed the better more effective solid blows basically is what it boils down to it for me.
