[gilgamesh]

Neither guys reputation should be diminished much, if at all following this bout regardless of how the decision goes. About as close, and competitive a title fight as you can see. Porter fought like he wanted it more in my opinion, and edged it by the slightest of margins.

115-113 Porter

Wouldn't be surprised by a Draw either. Can't stress enough how close this fight was.

[squiggy]

This one should go into extra innings...

[lazboy]

Garcia just closes the last round putting in a solid last minute. He should win by one or two rounds but no doubt a close fight. Wonder if a draw will be called as that’s the flavour of boxing atm.

[gilgamesh]

This one should go into extra innings...

This is the kinda fight that needs 15 rounds.

[squiggy]

I think Garcia shouldn't win.

[HyacinthusTurnipseed]

12th round for Garcia. Draw for me.

Just chalk that up with the other things we disagree on.

[diddy]

Punch stats favored Danny. Shawn was busy and thats usually all that matters even when most of it doesnt land. Porter threw 300 more and landed 12 more.

If Porter landed more then the punch stats favor him.

It was a close fight. Thought Garcia landed the cleaner and harder shots. Things we disagree on are Tyson fury and Jeff horns win over pac

Im talking about %'s. Landed were practically dead even. He was much more efficient but judges have a tough time scoring that almost always.

[gilgamesh]

The 3 judges only agreed on 4 of the rounds. Shows how close it was. I can easily see that too. That's pretty much how we are here on the board as well.

[DrDuke]

It seemed, like Garcia was more precise, but Porter was more active and also landed more good shots.

[marvelous marv]

I had it a draw from ringside. Very difficult to score this fight.
