Porter to me is a bit of a rush em fighter a guy very hard to look good against, the Kell that beat Porter would beat Spence IMO.Quote:

That is the form Kell needs to bring against Spence but that was some time ago now. I will be supporting Kell Brook.Quote:

But Thurman/Pac, both are so flawed technically it would be very compelling. And neither is particularly clever in the ring. Thurman couldn't avoid a fight like he does with those slow of foot. Would Pac foolishly walk into a finishing shot? Would Thurman foolishly try to cover up and allow Pac to tee off.
I'd love to see it.
Honestly I need a rewatch for sure because I had Garcia just edging it. Saw many elsewhere shitting on the fight but it wasn't that bad with contrasting styles and both shifted up. It felt like two fights with Thurman power game early, he looked at peak in 5th! Garcia sat on his hands sponging his best and waited around but had some top notch defense adjustment mid way and short work that got Keiths respect. I don't buy Thurman as some defensive back foot wizard. He looked more prevent-defense with time it out and get away over last half of the fight but he showed good composure. He just gets frazzled late under fire.
Excuse me was this on showtime in the
Us I need to watch the replay
It was on CBS
Oh so it that pb thing of armumQuote:
