I had it 115-113 #Thurminator
Fight was close enough to not be a robbery. I can see a draw and understand if anybody had it for Porter 115-113. Its like I said when the sparring video was leaked. Thurmans flashy showy punches that land clean as fukk versus Porters hustle punches that come in bunches, but not that clean or effective. shyt is FOTY to me and I hope it did good ratings wise. Great clash of styles that actually panned out how you would expect it to at the top level. Brook controlled Porter better, but he never gave it his all offense wise and rocked Porter as much as Thurman did. I had Brook winning that one 8-4 or 7-5. Fight was kinda meh entertainment wise since neither guy landed their money punch effectively enough. With Thurman and Porter, both guys did what they did best. Just the boxing IQ displayed was kinda low, but it still made for a great fight.
Thurman was giving out that work early and hurting Porter and seemed to be in control for most of the first half, but then Porter took the momentum and outworked and bullied Thurman ( Think Glen Johnson vs Tarver 1) during the middle rounds. Thurman would take the championship rounds by just landing the cleaner shots.
Both guys made the fight harder by not fukking jabbing
Both dudes kept running or walking after each other
shyt was like a mummy fighting a werewolf.
Tonight was the night of the uppercut though.

) and Tgurman was cool, calm, and collective no matter how much pressure was put on. THIS IS WHAT MAKES HALL OF FAME LEVEL HISTORIC FIGHTERS. After the 1st round, I thought Thruman might get shook from the pressure, that nikka actually fought better against that shyt.
