Spence ... Porter. I finally get to see Porter get demolished like the wrestling bum he is.

Spence might take a page outta Kell Brook's playbook and just hold/outbox Porter and cruise to a UD. But, like you I'm not a fan of Porter's boxing style and I don't see him winning this fight.

Slick boxers (not named Devon Alexander) should be pick apart the numerous holes in Porter's game while staying clear of the corners and ropes.

Spence is too big to be bullied I think he’s gonna slug it out.

It’s no VADA testing that Thurman vs. Manny
Fight. Manny probably buying juice by the gallon right now LOL

Welp, Pacquiao by stoppage for sure now. lolll

Possible, but Spence didn't do that against a much smaller man (albeit much better boxer) in Garcia. Not saying you're wrong, but Spence showed some versatility against Garcia, and I think we'll see more against Porter.

I wouldn't be shocked to see him fight off the back foot and catch, drop, and stop Porter lunging in.

No VADA so Manny might get on that HGH, EPO, and GW1516 on some Big Baby Miller shit

Remember though Errol said he fought that way on purpose to show that he could outbox an elite boxer.

So after Khan takes this $9 mil from Saudis, he's trying to set up this big money fight vs Manny and most likely retire I'm thinking

Khan's been begging for a big money fight for years. Hopefully Pac doesn't give it to him.

Khan has done nothing to earn a big money/title fight...nothing other than get KO'ed in hilarious fashion. He shoulda cashed out and fought Kell when there was interest.

 

[tpotda]

Khan vs Kell would still be huge in the UK and sell crazy UK PPVs and Wembley out, thing is Khan hates Kell too much to want to give him his biggest payday since that would be 8 figures for him. Khan has other options to get big money like this Saudi Fight and potentially Manny in Dubai after this, Kell doesn't have any options to make big money outside of Khan. He asked for probably close to the $5mil plus UK PPVs to fight Crawford and Arum said they don't have the budget for it. Without Crawford fight, idk what money is out there for Kell

They calling Tim Bradley a coon and wanna throw white paint on his face

Errol be speaking my mind. Tim is an elite level coon.

 

[Rollie_Fingaz]

Whyte also been #1 for WBC for like 600 days now and still no talks of him getting shot vs Wilder

This nigga had his chance to set himself up for title shots and declined them.

What has Bradley done to be called a coon?

 

[tpotda]

Lou Dibella and Chris Mannix even both said on Mannix podcast that its ridiculous Whyte hasn't gotten a shot at 1 of the champs yet. He's been 9-0 since the L to AJ while beating good opp, he's fighting another dangerous opp in Rivas coming up, he headlined and sold multiple UK PPVs. Hopefully he'll finally get a shot at WBC if he beats Rivas. I currently have him as the #4 HW on my personal HW rankings. Whyte got good reason to be pissed they doing him dirty like this

-Brezeale told Whyte that he would fight him and the winner would get Wilder.
-The WBC said if he fought Ortiz the winner would get Wilder.

He declined both opportunities, plus declined to fight Pulev in an IBF eliminator. He did this to himself.

Also they tried to set up Whyte vs. Fury and the winner got Wilder.

 

[tpotda]

They didn't offer Whyte enough money for those fights based on his value, they been fucking him over for a long time now

Just listen to his commentary. Anytime a white announcer says anything stereotypical about blacks he Laps it up like a dog with a water dish on a hot day.

If I'm not mistaken, didn't he lose to AJ already? That being said if he wanted the fight he should have taken it, beat the champ and then get the lions share of the money in the rematch.

He should be mad at Eddie Hearn. He was on AJ's dick and now he's bypassing Whyte and hitching up with Usyk.

 

[tpotda]

Yeah he lost to AJ, but he's 9-0 since then beating good opp. Hearn has been doing Whyte dirty thats facts

Yep. All those eliminators avoided because he was appeasing AJ. None of those 9 fights got him closer to a title shot. He also fucked over Parker too. He won't get a shot at Wilder or Ruiz.

 

[tpotda]

Whyte should have some of his goons from his council estate in Brixton he grew up in pay a visit to Eddie Hearn smh

[HeathCliff]

In the words if Mauricio Sulaiman: All WBC top contenders had to fight for a title eliminator. Why should it be different for Whyte?

Yep. They told him, "you beat [X] in the eliminator and you get the shot" and he didnt do it.

What value?
You have to fight eliminators.
Somehow he thinks he’s above that.
Whyte should blame Hearn.
Hearn has a good history of not getting his clients the right fights.

 

[tpotda]

He's been a proven draw across the pond so he has value to be paid a certain amount for his purses

This dude is tripping saying Crawford should be at $15-20mil purses when Crawford has no personality and trash talk game and seen as boring

 

[Rollie_Fingaz]

That dumb ass nigga needs to make a name before he can command money just like they told Wilder. He had his chance with the Ortiz or Brezeale fight. But Hearn never wanted to come over here because he can't control the narrative. Notice you don't hear him bragging about AJ/Ruiz numbers.

Hearn has no star to break into the American market.

 

[the13thround]

He's been a proven draw across the pond so he has value to be paid a certain amount for his purses

Yep, and he fought here in the US in 2017 in front of an EMPTY arena.
Whyte is only known in the UK and is irrelevant anywhere else.
He's ruining his career by turning down opportunity after opportunity.
You can't dictate to sanctioning bodies what you aren't gonna do when you've accomplished nothing.

 

[HeathCliff]

 

[tpotda]

The UK has been where the HW division is the strongest tho so that should hold a lot of weight. He's also had big money fights out there so he can draw money there. I will say that no doubt Hearn has been fucking him over
