    So it looks this one will happen. If it doesn't, we can DEFINITELY blame Cherry.

    Early thoughts?

    Porter...

    It'll Be Entertaining and if Danny Lands that Patented Eyes Closed Left Hook He Can HURT Porter for Sure, but REED Thinks Porter Will Successfully CROWD Danny, Forcing Phone Booth Warfare...

    Porter by CLOSE, Fan Friendly Decision...

    For awhile I favored Cherry, but he looked to be struggling at times with shot ass, scrubby Rios until finally catching him.

    Considering Porter is fresher, bigger, stronger, and MUCH quicker than Rios, yeah, he would should be slightly favored.

    Garcia's counter punching you'd think would shine against a guy like Porter. But I think at 147, the power just isn't there.

    I can see Porter grabbing a deserved decision in a good scrap.

    Word is this fight will be finalized soon. It all makes sense... the winner fights Thurman in a rematch, and all three continue avoiding Spence.

    Garcia-Porter is a done deal, for Aug. 25th at Barclays.

    I dunno, I had initially said Garcia... then Porter... but I think I'm gonna roll with my original pick. I think Cherry Garcia will be too skilled for the grappler.

    I guess this becomes the premier fight of the summer (a quiet summer). M.Garcia vs Easter is a borderline mismatch imo.

    Garcia has surprised before when he was the underdog and he seems to be the underdog again here.

    Could go either way. Intangibles will play a big role. Porter however, has a habit of coming up short in all his big time fights so that may be something to look out for.

    Truly could go either way.

    A Garcia win could end up being better for us anyway. Cause that means Spence-Garcia, which means the Danny Gift gets the ass whuppin we've always wanted him to take.

    HBO will still lose. Despite having more subscribers, Garcia-Porter will pull in way more viewers.

    Personally I think Porter will illegally grapple his way to the close decision victory

    He'll fight him close, that's for sure.

    Porter doesn't apply steady pressure like a Marciano or Frazier. He's a spurt fighter, just like Canelo, only with a different style.

    Danny will time and counter him.

    Where's all this imaginary ability that you see in Porter?

    I'm not trying to convince you of his ability. Just don't agree with your prediction.

    I don't like either one, so it's a win-win for me. I'll be satisfied whichever one loses.

    Both their fathers are highly fucking annoying also.

    Porter's dad is just fucking weird. And garcia's dad is an obvious pig.

    This fight has distance written all over it.

    Could be a controversial decision either way.
