Bounced back from a car crash, hopefully the fight isn't a trainwreck: Thurman/Porter June 25 thread

[DetroitEWarren]

thurman got exposed, soon has he faces a great puncher he's going to sleep

How a nikka can spend so much time talking about a sport, with a true love for the shyt, but constantly let being a hater ass nikka over rule any form of objectivity is fukkin crazy bout some of u nikkas.

Some of u nikkas really know your shyt, but hating and dikkriding overrides all. That shyt lame as fukk

Man, I'd love to be able to shyt all over Porters performance, but I felt like he did WORSE in the fight vs. Bone (and he knocked the dude out in 5!!) than he did tonight.

Porter is going to smother his own punches, but he was certainly taking a lot out of Thurman, had the momentum switching up QUICK! Could not help but notice how effortlessly Porter would rush in and begin to push/wrestle Thurman STRAIGHT into the ropes like he's SUPPOSED to, something I thought that Keith would be able to stop more frequently. I hated that Porter would often punch Keith's back and during the clinches, but I certainly walked away from this fight feeling that Porter could have easily swayed the judges in his favor purely off his bullying.

He didn't get the W, but he really executed.

both men did tonight.

I agreed with the judges
I judged it 7-5 thurman
Porter won Most of his rounds by out hustling thurman
I'm really starting to hate porters fighting style
Dude fights like he's on pcp
I could see if a judge scored IT a draw
But I think it was a clear but very close win for thurman

He fights like that when he's fighting guys with power he's scared of...broner will shyt on Thurman easy after what I saw tonight, matter of fact Broner beat porter in retrospect...porter just out hustled him and went "ugly wild man" and judges already don't care for broner. Not impressed with porter. Not accurate, leaves himself wide open after wild punches and leads with his head 100% of the time.

Thurman has good power, but KO's & KD's always slow down as your competition increases.

Thurman has more pure power than Broner. Broner has faster hand speed & Porter didn't see it coming. It's boxing. These things happen.

Porter has an excellent chin.

I really don't like posts saying a guy was exposed when he is fighting one of the best guys in the division & by far the toughest guy on his resume. Of course it was going to be a tough fight.

Dont mind him. He didnt take his meds today.

Dammit I missed the fight. I heard it was good

 

[Tide Run This]

Fight was lit fam

Throw Danny n Thurman at Barclays

I think I lost my voice yelling at Thurman dumb ass to jab man he made that way harder than he should have by looking to load up too much.

He is enamored with his power but I think his boxing is his bread and butter. He aint Mike Tyson toss that shyt in the bushes and box nikka I had 7-5 close but clear for One Time.

Sounded like a home game at times for Porter how split was the crowd?

 

[Tide Run This]

Whoever gave thurman winning more than 5 rounds don't know shut about boxing

In Porter''s defense, he ran into the best version of Erick Bone I have ever seen.

Horrible fight. Porter won imo. Both are ass.

Nah now that Broner growing into the Welter division, he has that elite level pop...I sit watching all of an fights hating, but even as he's getting all type of hands on him I could never sit confident as he buzzes the shyt out of, or folds his opponents fight after fight with single shots...

Thurman has accumalation pop watching the fight a questionable chinned porter walk through his shots with disdain for his power and pretty much manhandling him..

 

[#SOG_soldier]

It is also obvious that this thread is full of people who also don't know shyt about boxing.

It was close imo but I thought porter did enough work on the inside to win. Either way it was a horrible fight imo. Both these nikkas are overatted trash

 

[patscorpio]

@patscorpio watching a damn badass fight.

Dope ass fight Tua...nikkas at Barclays were heated at Thurman winning that shyt
