That's the thing. It's not like he doesn't have any skills at all. I think that's what makes it even more maddening. That "half step back" point is important and key. His trainer should be all over that one. Then again it's hard to blame the trainer. Who knows, he probably tells/ teaches Porter the same thing in the gym, and Porter forgets it all half a second into the fight. He's got that good jab as well. And yes, he always comes to fight. Kind of reminds me of Tim Bradley on steroids. Sadly, yes.... it always comes back to the ref. This guy, other than making the doctors climb the steps more than they ever had, didn't really do a good job of controlling the fight, IMO.
