I got porter I think his style is a nightmare for a guy like Thurman who hasn't got the compsure of a brook and doesn't have the strength to keep a hold of porter when he gets inside. Plus with the neck injury and the lack of A level opposition on his resume I like Porter for this fight but it's a close fight a Thurman win is not out the question. Who do you pick and why?
I got Porter too. I Don't think Thurman deals with Pressure very well, he generally likes a bit slower tempo where he can do where he want. It's interesting despite Thurman being the favorite most people I talk to pick Porter.
Hope he does it because I think porter will take on Garcia, Brook and spence whereas Thurman will only fight Garcia. Did you see the sparring footage?
A little bit, I generally don't put much into sparring though. And yeah I hope Porter wins to. He's one of the guys who is everything good about boxing. Willing fight anyone, even back to back, and always comes to fight.
Yeah I don't either but I think the sparring will go similar to the fight which was porter swarming him and Thurman not liking the pressure, but catching him with good shots from time to time. But yeah I like porters attitude not the most talented but a consumate professional who makes up for his deficiency with hard work. Not a fan of his dad talks way too much.
