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

[Newzz]

Don't forget about our avy/sig bet :onetimeorly:

Was it both?


Avi AND sig? I thought it was only 1 or the other


I don't wanna risk an avi/sig bet on Shawn Porter

 

[Newzz]

When his equilibrium gets recalibrated coming in sloppily

He gonna be on the same high he was when he mauled The Cat Burglar

Yeah because one had no power to stop the bum rush. That aint happening here friend. The only thing that has me ehh is the body work by your boy when he isn't smothering his work he works the body well.

Sig bets?



Mickey Bey bout to be a 2 time Champion on June 3rd...and y'all (and Floyd) gonna have to put some respek on his name too



#BeyBeyKids

Just in time for another sig bet for Porter vs Thurman...with another 2 weeks on the line

You itching to take back to back L's I see :porter:

I forgot all about this thread only to return and see yall gathered around the campfire talking down on The Ohio Powerhouse



Even got @Endiphrint talking bout it's gonna be a brutal beating



All I can say is ...we'll see

You know I love you breh, congratulations is in order as well for Bron bringing it home too! Still though, the question has to be asked, what has Porter changed since Kell had him eating all those jabs and straight rights and lefts? He can't eat that kind of power all night long coming from Thurman. I don't think he has the type of power to hurt Thurman like Collazo did either, even if he does trap him against the ropes. Thurman does a lot of running around too, so Porter's opportunities of trapping him are going to be limited. I see a late round stoppage, or decision victory for Thurman. This could do Porter a favor too, cuz the dentist should have been got at him Lil Fame's brother.

Keith Thurman is not nearly as accurate a puncher as Kell Shook is imo breh...I see Thurman swinging, landing some, missing most, and having to overcome his fear of someone touching his body.

I don't think he has the type of power to hurt Thurman like Collazo did either, even if he does trap him against the ropes.

Porter has more power than Collazo imo. That's the reason AB wouldn't throw and why he steamrolled Alexander. I see his power putting Thurman on the move during the fight at some point.

Thurman does a lot of running around too, so Porter's opportunities of trapping him are going to be limited.

Porter is good at cutting off the ring, and also, judge's tend to favor the one who's stalking over the one who's moving. It might benefit Porter if Thurman starts over moving during the bout and make him look more effective.

I see a late round stoppage, or decision victory for Thurman. This could do Porter a favor too, cuz the dentist should have been got at him Lil Fame's brother.

Havent yall ever learned you don't mess with people who have teeth like that

Hello Brooklyn...patscorpio's here

Pity I couldn't make the live weigh in but they weighed in early than expected and i got in later than usual..oh well

A lot of people are going to role with Thurman, because he is the more aesthetically pleasing guy to watch in there that night. I can't really blame them.

However, Shawn Porter is herky jerky, awkward, in shape, & displays professionalism at all times. He is a winner. Also, Porter has fought better competition. I really believe he is prepared for this kind of fight.

For me, it's a 50-50 toss up. I will make a prediction on Saturday.

I have learned to appreciate guys that look like shyt in the ring, but just get it done. I use to pick against Carl Froch every time. Some guys are just winners.

Compare shawn porter to Carl froch

Both are overatted. But I agree it's s close fight between 2 good fighters

Shawn Porter and Carl Froch fight nothing alike.

I am more so referring to guys that aren't aesthetically pleasing in the ring that just get it done.

I'm surprised you seemed to interpret that post differently.
