Fatty can go, though! Even in some of his 8 rounders he's shown me more diversity than lumbering cement footed Martin has... Power is great at heavyweight but you need a chin and some other intangibles to go along with it or you're doomed I don't know, I'm sticking to my guns here.

You mean Porter? Danny Garcia is a small favorite.

One judge has it 10-2 rounds and another 8-3-1 and it's a close un. decision because one has it 7-5?!?! A bit harsh imo.

The opposite thought is if two judges has it close and one has it wide it's a wide decision?!

 

I'm on Garcia but the closer the fight gets, the more I'm thinking we are in for a close decision either way or draw. Garcia will probably land the harder, cleaner shots while Porter will land more shots and throw way more punches. We'll be going into the tenth round wondering who is actually ahead in the fight.

Or Garcia lands a left hook as Porter bull-rushes inside that sends Porter to the shadow realm.

 

You might be right, especially about Porter's rhythm and durability. But I think Herrera is way slicker than Porter. Maybe I'm not giving Porter enough credit but he isn't exactly hard to find in the ring. He doesn't seem to come inside at angles and use upper body movement like Lomachenko. Thurman nailed him a few times and momentarily stopped Porter in his tracks. Although it didn't really dissuaded Shawn much. Porter will keep coming at you but I don't feel he has good power because he is sloppy with his punches. He'll overwhelm you more with volume than anything else. We are probably looking at a distance fight.

I hope we get a good fight and there isn't a bunch of holding by Garcia (following the Brook blueprint).

 

Surprised there are barely any Palicte backers. This is a genuine 50/50 fight but I guess the greatness of Nietes prevails in the league.
