selij Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Re: Keith Thurman vs Shawn Porter to be announced for December 12th Who wins this one? Thurman all day long. Fair f**ks to Porter for taking this one though, I'll give him that much. And really looking forward to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cableaddict Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Re: Keith Thurman vs Shawn Porter to be announced for December 12th Should obviously be full of fireworks. A great fight to get casuals interested in the sport. Thurman should win, of course, but I'm very interested to see HOW he wins. Porter will swarm, and try to make it ugly. Thurman has never had the greatest footwork or ring generalship, though that has been slowly improving. This fight will tell us a lot about where those skills are right now. If Thurman is able to control Porter and keep the fight mostly at mid-range, then he will have to be considered one of the clear top dogs in the division. If Porter is able to swarm, smother, and make it nasty, then Thurman still has some work to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
repsac Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Re: Keith Thurman vs Shawn Porter to be announced for December 12th I like Thurman in this one. Very decent matchup, finally Haymon gets it right. I don't think Thurman knocks him out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james kerry Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Re: Keith Thurman vs Shawn Porter to be announced for December 12th Thurman the knockout puncher and alway on the attack. Porter may have to fight him close up to frustrate the guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
