Landing flashy punched that are blocked is not effective counterpunching.

    wish farhood, the judges tonight and any clowns having thurman as the winner understood this.

    I know it sounds like a good punch but that sound is from the glove on glove contact from the block.

    porter won the last 6 rounds and his body attack trumped any supposed "counter punching" thurman displayed.

    So I guess those shots that twisted Porter's neck in every round are optical illusions, cool story bro :patsch

    Some of them were blocked yes, and porter had been caught off balance. I do agree the commentators were biased towards Thurman. I felt that even though Thurman sometimes ran backwards like a total ***** he did probably do enough to win. I wouldn't have complained if Porter won though. Porter walked through many of Keiths shots, Porters shots pushed Keith backwards. If you are fighting off the back foot, you should be hitting the other guy more. I think some of the early rounds that farhood gave to Thurman actually could have gone to Porter. I think 115-113 was a good score... If it was any wider than that either way I would be calling for another Al Haymon investigation.
