The truth is Porter is more tested and proved at the top level than Spence.
If we look on Porter's resume he beat a top version of Devon Alexander (Kotelnik, Maidana, Matthysse), then he fought a prime Kell Brook (loss), Broner, Berto , Thurman (loss), Danny Garcia and Ugas. Pretty damn solid resume.
As for Spence, his best win is a 135 lbs bloated version of Mikey Garcia and a washed up eye injuried Brook .
Anyway if Spence is gonna beat Porter convincingly then it's gonna be a big statement and of course Spence's best win by far..

The truth is Spence is a much better fighter than Porter. Does pretty much everything better.
Re: The truth is Porter is more tested and proved at the top level than Spence.
Porter had a better overall competition level, but still Spence also proved that he's real deal by defeating some quality opposition. And Spence did that in a more convincing fashion.

Porter lost to them anyway. Close, but still losses.

Re: The truth is Porter is more tested and proved at the top level than Spence.
Spence is really that good. Kid got everything at how it has looked in his last fights.
Porter is more game and stronger then Mikey is. So might be a close fight.
But Im going that Spence might have the edge and get a tough fight from Porter, who will be there all night.

Porter is on the same level with Danny and Peterson and slightly below Brook and Thurman. Spence is a level above that company.

He was below the Thurman he lost to. I doubt he's still below the current version of Thurman.boxing_rocks wrote: ↑27 Sep 2019, 12:42 Porter is on the same level with Danny and Peterson and slightly below Brook and Thurman. Spence is a level above that company.

Actually Porter is above Danny and Peterson since he beat them. Porter was below Brook when Brook was on the top of his game, prior to the GGG fight. Same with Thurman. Now both Brook and Thurman are past and faded.boxing_rocks wrote: ↑27 Sep 2019, 12:42 Porter is on the same level with Danny and Peterson and slightly below Brook and Thurman.

Spence is a far better fighter than those 'kitties'.

It is exact same Thurman. Porter is just no Pacquiao.gilgamesh wrote: ↑27 Sep 2019, 12:50He was below the Thurman he lost to.

Re: The truth is Porter is more tested and proved at the top level than Spence.
No. It definitely ain't the same Thurman. The Thurman that beat Porter doesn't struggle with Josesito Lopez.

Nah, Im going with that he can bring some to the table tomorrow and give the fans a good show. Im 60/40 in favor of Spence.boxing_rocks wrote: ↑27 Sep 2019, 14:35Unless he manages to cut Spence or another injury happens, his chances are extremely slim. As somebody already mentioned, Spence is better at everything except rugby skills.

You're right to disagree, Porter can't even rough him up. Total ass whipping coming, 100/0,Paci wrote: ↑27 Sep 2019, 14:40Nah, Im going with that he can bring some to the table tomorrow and give the fans a good show. Im 60/40 in favor of Spence.boxing_rocks wrote: ↑27 Sep 2019, 14:35

I think Porter 2019 is better than the one that lost to Brook and Thurman. He "does what he does" better than back then.boxing_rocks wrote: ↑27 Sep 2019, 12:42 Porter is on the same level with Danny and Peterson and slightly below Brook and Thurman. Spence is a level above that company.
I cant spefically say how he has improved in boxing terms, he just does "Porter" a lot better
Re: The truth is Porter is more tested and proved at the top level than Spence.
Haha, lets see how they do. Im hoping for a good fight. Cause you know I can't think of a period without any welters ain't p4p in one way or another.Onetimeonly wrote: ↑27 Sep 2019, 14:57You're right to disagree, Porter can't even rough him up. Total ass whipping coming, 100/0,
The greatest division in boxing! Period.

The truth is that Porter consistently loses SD's to opponents of Spence's level.

Yup, he's getting his ass kicked tonight. One of those competitive but one sided fights.
