ive been seeing a lot of people saying they think porter won.
I had it 6-6 with spence coming through in the clutch and taking the last 2 rounds. Had him by 1 pt. But there were so many close rounds either guy could have taken it. Porter prolly dished out more overall punishment, but spence was more consistent with his activity. He didn't have the lulls porter did. Even when spence got stunned he never stopped throwing. No matter happened he always kept coming and trying score punches. Dude is fukkin relentless. Both these guys did something special last night. To me that shyt was still a draw. Neither guy deserved to lose :yeshrug:

You don't throw the same amount of punches, get out landed in nearly every round, and land a considerable amount less, while also getting knocked down and win the fight brehs. The right man won the fight.
i thought those rounds were pretty even. thats how you looked at it and youre not wrong. now think about how other people might have looked at it. porter was dictating a lot of that fight. if he wanted it outside it was outside. if he wanted it inside it was inside. porter was dictating the fight. spence was letting the fight happen to him. some people might score that. and if they did, theyre not wrong to.

your stars are but dust on my shoes
Gotta give props to Porter... I've been saying this dude was food since I seen him struggle with Diaz, but he's stepped up every single damn time and proved me wrong. I thought Keith and Spence would stop him, so imagine my face when I seen him give Spence the hardest fight of his career.

I still don't understand how he did it, but he was eating shots all night and kept pressing the action.

Nothing but props to that mfer.:salute:

If a fighter can literally let you fight your fight and you still can't win that ought to tell you something bro. I was disappointed don't get me wrong but Spence fought Porters style of fighr and still won.

Man, ain’t nobody trying to see Danny versus Spence :gucci:. Hopefully, that shyt falls through. I’m not a PBC hater by any stretch, but some of these fights be pure bullshyt. We need Spence versus Pac/Crawford.
That's a great action packed fight with two big names coming off notable victories

like most people, i gave it to spence cause of the kd. but its a fight that if i watch it again i might tally it all up a little different. the fight was close enough that, any score would be a good score, as long as its a close score. that includes a porter score.
I feel you. It was close.

I'm watching the fight for a 4th time. The biggest thing with Spence being dry and not in the best of shape is how heavy his legs look. His lower body movement looked so much slower this fight. I really hope he fixing these outside the ring habits man bc he's such a brilliant fighter.

Would y’all say this fight Manny/Thurman?

Both were top 5 fights along with Hurd/J Rock and a couple more fights. But I see a lot people saying that respect Porter in defeat as they did when Keith lost to Pac

Spence never had the quickest feet. He just finally faced somebody who could exploit it. He was very off balance at certain points in the fight because porter was coming at him from so many different angles. It would prolly be the same case against pacquiao. Pac made tim bradley damn near dislocate his ankle from all his weird ass movement:pachaha:

I don't think spences performance in this fight had anything to do with bad habits outside the ring. I just think porter's style was always gonna give him hell.
