    That's right he can bark like a dog ain't ish to Pacquiao. Barking is nuffin the roar of the tiger is more ferocious.

    Probably by midway to late rounds but if Porter is defensively irresponsible he could get clipped earlier.

    Hmmm, I like this fight because both operators do their best work in the pocket but neither is a 'Chavez-esque' defensive wizard.
    This fight may start off hectic but I think both will have to take a breather at points and the outcome will come as a result of some key moments and momentum shifts in rounds.
    Great fight and one I have been wanting to see since Spence beat Brook.
    Those suggesting Spence just wins cos he's better DKSAB. Porter will be Spence's toughest test since Brook and possibly will take him into deeper waters. Porters chin is easily the best in the division for me, both are boiled down middles, can Spence take the heat? Can he stay cooking in the hottest of WW kitchens???
    I will give him all the props after this one should he come through but I fancy a seasoned Porter to take this to the absolute wire.
    Wouldn't want to disrespect either with a solid prediction, let the bombs fly and best man on the night take it!

    Bold prediction, I'm just not seeing that. My official pick is Spence Split decision. Should be a real fun fight can't wait. Hopefully Spence doesn't wear his track shoes..

    Spence needs to separate himself from the pack, as do Crawford. To prove they’re 1.a and 1.b. The rest of the top guys can have close fights with each other, but those 2 should dominate the other top guys and show they’re a class above.

    Similar to how cotto-Mosley-Margo-clottey were the top guys at WW and had close fights with each other, Pac and May dominated the rest of the crop to claim the top and form a rivalry.

    I think many is looking to fight the winner of this fight and the loser should fight Keith "Lunch Time" Thurman.

    The disparity in skills is to vast for it to be a close split decision. It will be a clear win for Spence Unless he does things out of character which is unlikely. He can beat Porter at range and on the inside being defensively responsible with his pin point accuracy and fundamental skill sets. Shawn Porter is going to eat a lot of leather in this fight.

    I believe Spence just does more things better which gives him the edge. Porter is a live dog but the underdog for a reason here. Spence UD

    I just think there's so much money and influence behind Spence that there would be pressure / incentives for a rematch, could be wrong of course...
