R.I.P Shawn porter

You say he had a lot of success, but Thurman was still winning most of those rounds LOL, and "a lot of success" is a huge overstatement . THurman had another head popping out of his forehead, as for Collazo, getting hit in the liver doesn't mean you have a weak body and his chin isn't so weak. His chin is questionable, until he goes down or gets knocked out you can't make those statements.

If you can easily see this as Porter winning why not ban bet or put up a little money? I'm 90% sure Thurman wins this fight(I had it around 60-70% for Broner), I'm assuming you have around the same odds for Porter, wouldn't it be stupid not to take money when you think you have a 90% chance?

 

Btw odds are very close on this fight with Thurman slightly being the favorite. 1/2 for Thurman and 13/8 for Porter.

 

haha, I'll even do this bet with CST, since I know forum time is more important than cash. I'll bet 50 bucks for a 5 month ban bet for him. He can use an alt but no educate yourself threads, and no threads to imply that it's him, but he can pm the people he's close with on the forums to say who he is.
What do you say CST?

 

A lot of success? He had success in spots, he wasn't dominating Thurman in either way, both of them were getting their shots in, and thurman was badly injured by a headbutt. Shawn's punching power is overrated as hell, he destroyed Paulie, but who else has he knocked out? He couldnt even knock Broner down. What makes you say that they're lesser punchers than Shawn? Karass hits harder than Shawn.
So in other words you're not confident in your pick at all, and you'll most likely call a robbery and score the majority rounds in the RBR that Thurman wins for Porter .

 

What evidence have you seen of Porter having more power than Karass? Guerrero never even hurt him, the only thing he hurt him with was a headbutt. The only time Porter has ever impressed with his pwoer is against Paulie, he's never showed anything to prove he can hit hard as Karass.

Let's bet money then, like I said talk is cheap. Anywhere between 10-100 bucks. Thurman isn't a draw like Broner, the only reason Broner would get the nod is because the dude is FAR more known than Thurman. Thurman has as much recognition as Porter, you could even say less, so that excuse is just a cop out.

 

I would be picking Thurman but I'd probably only put the percentage odds in his favor 60-40.

 

Close fight. No one dominates.

 

I don't think he will KO him but I do see Keith avoiding the inside game and using the ring to frustrate Porter.
I think this goes to the cards with the nod to Keith.

 

Interesting to hear they have sparred before..........Porter waxed him but I want a Thurman win.

 

Porter will stop him inside 8.

 

He also thought Porter would beat Brook in the most one sided world title fight in history...
