    Nah, CST80, don't do that. Banning should be a very rare thing, only for the worst offenders.

    Porter doesn't seem like your average swarmer though. One minute he's all over you, next minute he's in his toes moving around. He can be unpredictable. You're right, he can be timed but by an elite counter puncher, like a Terrance Crawford.

    And which of the first 10 were overwhelmingly in Spence's favor? I prefer aggression and volume, Porter easily outworked him in almost every one of them. To me it seems like the vast majority on here feel as if they literally have to give the a side the benefit of the doubt, I don't, and I won't. And that reflexive tendency from most of you, kind of sickens me. There's nothing wrong with my scorecard, there's nothing wrong with razor close scores in Spence's favor. But the 116-111 card, that was an abomination.

    He's super tough and durable but he's not accurate at all and he's sometimes confused at what his style is. Hatton was a better swarmer I think until he met those last two fights. That said, he's a real fighter with cohones!

    He's one of the worst offenders. He verbally attacks everybody he comes in contact with. It was well deserved.

    Agreed, 116-111 scores were too wide.

    I think it's very fair. I never said Spence wasn't any good. He's very good but he's nowhere near as good as his doe-eyed groupies have hyped him up to be. Not even close.

    He's got a really nasty and argumentative disposition, he loves making everything personal with everyone he comes in contact with. Is a cancerous human being.

    True, Hatton style was more defined. But Porter is faster and more athletic. His accuracy is definitely much to be desired. All in all, he does the best with what he has.

    Yeah, I know that. I literally predicted he would. But hey, the vast majority of the website predicted Spence would win by stoppage. And don't rate Porter very highly. So based on their standards. Spence is a bum.:rolleyes:

    I don’t understand how anybody has Porter winning. It was close at first, but Spence actually beat his ass the last couple of rounds. The people who say Porter outworked him, how? Spence outlanded him and beat his body. People are giving Porter too much credit.

    115-112 Spence

    Yeah, that never happened. I'm the fair and balanced mod that gives people chance after chance before pulling the trigger. Even going as far as asking them to stop repeatedly. Why would I ban you? I have no reason to.
