Niether did Kenny.. thats why he stopped the fight and saved his son from an embarrassing KO that was 100% gonna happen
Every great back and forth fight that happens in here we have people writing fighters off saying they’re clearly done or a fighter is headed for a KO only for that fighter to mount a comeback and turn things around. Fighters get second winds or land a good shot to reverse the momentum. It’s crazy to say it was obviously headed for a KO. Even on that last Flurry Bud caught him with one shot.

I do think it Porter was wearing down and Bud is a monster closet but I feel that early stoppage not only fukked Porter a chance to make a comeback but also fukked Bud a chance to end things in spectacular fashion.

he was not hurt
It just makes no sense to continue when u basically have no chance to win the fight
He needed a knockout to win
And he was getting hit with cleaner punches
Was he really hurt at that point hell no
He wouldn’t have been punching the ground if he was really hurt
Fam you dont get dropped twice like that unless youre hurt. :mjlol: His arms were sliding all on the canvas. He was frustrated and hurt.

I'm curious if Porter will actually retire. We know how a fighter's mind works. We saw in the interview right after the fight that Porter was talking about how he'd like a rematch. Some fighters need that bad KO to know it's time to step away. Having his fight end like that may convince Porter he still needs that one last good victory or that he still has more in the tank to go cause it was a close ass fight.

I'm tired of so called boxing fans and y'all fake concern for a fighter's health. KO's come with the territory, and y'all sound p*ssy tryna defend this fugazi ass stoppage :francis:

I like KOs too but I ain’t mad at somebody stopping the fight before the inevitable happen, You got to put it into context they knew that was his last fight (or thinking it maybe his last fight) and Porter was hurt hurt. It wasn’t like the ref stopped it his corner/father did. So if he felt like his son was in danger who are we to say he wasn’t :gucci:. Plus his father told y’all the reason and y’all still mad.

Yall so call real boxing fans hell…Y’all just was sitting here praising Caleb plant for trying to survive and doing bare minimum. Y’all was defending that p*ssy ass fighting because it fit y’all narrative. And he still got knocked but y’all want to see Porter stretched out somebody who come to win every fight . Y’all defend p*ssy activities on the daily around these parts. If it’s some p*ssy shyt saying that’s a good stoppage well color me p*ssy then.:blessed:

This fight shows that either nikkas REALLY don’t know shyt about boxing or don’t care about fighter safety like they front .

Anyone with eyes can see what was about to happen..like Ishe said that punch drunk shyt is real ..Shawn is a young dude who can be heavily involved in sports/boxing media for the next 30+ years . Leaving him out there to get his brains sent to Zimbabwe would’ve been stupid as hell

Agreed, although I think the problem is sadism.

Referees and trainers don't have the same goal as blood thirsty fans. They're not going to look at a fighter who finished and think "I want to see him sprawled out on his back" or "The memes are going to be great".

Their job is to consider the wellbeing of the fighter.

Errol Spence expecting Crawford to accept 60/40... Who does Spenxe think he is? I think Crawford is the bigger draw. But 50/45 at best

The A side? :heh:

Spence is a bigger name than Crawford who has been rotting away with Top Prank for the last 5 years. 60:40 is more than reasonable.

Crawford is regarded as the best fighter. And is the bigger name outside of Dallas.

He isn't regarded as the better fighter and it does not matter. Against De La Hoya, Mayweather was regarded as the best in the world but he was the B side going into the fight.

Crawford isn't bigger outside of Dallas either. He is barely known.

You just need to look at the high profile both fighters have been in and be honest.
