It was a good fight I won't reveal anything. I don't want to be a spoiler. When will ESPN air the bout?

I think Tyson Fury is for real. His boxing skills are the best in the heavy weight division. He moves his upper body to avoid punches like I haven't seen since Ali and no, I'm not comparing him to The Greatest. He took Tom Schwarz out with ease. Surprised him when he came out south paw in the second round. Despite Schwarz's unbeaten record I don't know what level of competition he's faced. When Tyson and Wilder meet again I have him beating Deontay. I think he beat him in the first fight.

Porter gotta make this 'ugly' (not dirty) which he's good at but Spence, man, this dude is like a bigger, stronger, longer, smarter (ok maybe just as smart) version of Mikey Garcia (who can dismantle/pick apart opponent)

Spence by KO mid to late rounds

I blew it. I didn't look for it in Nitro. I ordered it. My friend just called me. He got the fight on Nitro.

Most iptv services have all the ppvs. I would expect one as pricey as yours to include them for sure. Mine does and I'm paying 26 a quarter for 2 connections

Great fight. Porter gave Spence all he could handle.

Edit: FOTY candidate.

Phone booth fight. Porters kind of fight. I expected Errol to do more boxing.

Man, fudging missed it. Heard Spence and Porter just went at it trying to KO each other. Sounds like Porter game plan worked but Spence was just better?

Shawn got clipped in the 11th in a round he was winning. So it turned a 10-9 round into a 8-10 round for him and turned a very close fight. Spence was able to win round 12 as well. That was the difference in the fight pretty much. Great fight.

Porter either forced Errol to or Errol actually wanted to fight. Most of this fight was fought in the bucket. Shawn can hold his head up, he gave Spence all he wanted and more.

Very solid fight. Shawn Porter makes everyone look bad just because of the way he brawls and come at you constantly. He made Errol work for that win. And Staples was crazy.

Dirrell’s eye left early.

Gennadiy Golovkin vs. Sergiy Derevyanchenko, I watched the fight. I didn't score it. I think Sergiy won.

Gennadiy flash knocked him down in the first round. Cut his eye I think in the 4th. Referee ruled it a head butt. Film showed it was caused by a punch. It was a vicious cut. Sergiy's corner did a masterful job it didn't bleed throughout the 12 rounds.

Sergiy out boxed and hurt GGG's body. Father time has caught up with GGG. If they gave him the fight so he could fight Canelo they did wrong. Canelo is going to do some serious harm to GGG.

Canelo managed to salvage a win against an old/shot fighter. Very weird fight to watch for most of it until the end.
