I guess that this is the thread for the George Groves match too. I just noticed that it says so in the sub-heading.

Not a bad match-up for Groves. Sierra can definitely take a punch (he seems to like to pose for them). As far as gauging Groves, he's a solid young super-middleweight and should continue to improve. Obviously not ready for top guys yet, but there are a lot of nice match-ups in that division.

When I say top guys, I meant Andre Ward, Andre Dirrell. After clarifying it like that, then maybe he is ready for the top guys, just not those two.

Yes he can take a punch, but damn...he got cold cocked! Not a bad start for the evening...I was doing about 50 things while the fight was on.

Definitely.

AM HERE letsss get readyyy to rummbbbleeee

Coronas? Notepad?

notepad, no coronas, work tomorrow

anyone think Bruce has never heard of slipping the jab?

Clearly, he contractually-bound NOT to slip a jab or give any head movement whatsoever.

i mean seriously, i remember its one of the first things i was ever taught, slip the jab and left hook to head or body.

fuck me hes just teeing off now, should be constant pressure from bruce

Centano though, interesting fighter, I like his style, solid jab, he just needs to find better ways through an opponent guard.

Bruce was just taking it...had no intentions on avoiding any punches.

Wonder why they only showed clips from Lopez's fight against Ortiz, but they should most of Canelo's opponents in his highlight reel. Hell, they could've thrown in some clips of Lopez handling Jessie Vargas.

i get being in his position, but it never seemed like he was in danger of getting knocked out, Bruce that is, I mean its all well and good your opponent hitting your guard but come on gotta want to retaliate with something, he didn't even seem like he wanted the W

I thought he was gonna try and pull a "Bailey" and floor the dude, but he didn't do much of anything in there.

seemed it after that right hand in the third i think, but he just was far to conservative. also in that other post i meant porters jab, got my water and notepad ready

kermit bayless judge? any relation to a certain skip?

If it ends up being some fucked up calls, then yes, we could crown him as Skip Bayless' family member of some sort.

They've already clashed heads twice...I see a cut coming out of this soon...

theres the cut, also 10-9 porter

Wow! That was a pretty good first round for both guys! Gomez is coming in the fight with bad intentions...something tells me that he's going to try and score and upset for a title shot...maybe against Guerrero if both win tonight.

Maaaaan...Porter is being trolled into a Gomez-type fight. #BadMove

round to gomez, porter really cannot move outta the way of that left hook

HA! MY TWEET WAS ON TV DAAAAWG!!!

@Meanest _NiceGuy

I missed it. Nice one!

round gomez, my stream is such bad quality i couldnt read it lol

Thanks! Porter is all out of position...dude's feet are spread way to far apart.

this round was all porter

If Porter keeps working behind the jab, which he stopped doing, then this will be a lot easier.

Porter, feel free to stay downstairs

again porter, he could stop him

I just lost a mouth full of beer reading this post! LOL.

Porter is getting comfortable in there...Gomez better get the lead out of his ass...

Porter should thank his lucky stars that Gomez can't crack much.

he does great in a round then slip straight back and making mistakes.

Why does Aydin have that "mass murderer" look on his face???

Man Gomez lands that right hand whenever he wants to...

I see Porter is contractually prohibited from avoiding R hands this match.

Porter's trying to prove a point by brawling with this guy. His skills are better than to get caught by some of the stuff that he's getting caught by.

Exactly! Getting caught with left hands could be understood, but a right hand is the most basic fuckin' punch out there...so Im sure some other fighters are watching this. Gomez is in there lookin' like an ogre...

Good Fight. I missed watching Porter. Almost forgot about him. I actualy think Porter is looking better on the inside than Gomez. The more space he gets, the right hand tags him. Both guys are doin solid body work. Gomez just looks gassed.

Can somebody lend Gomez some legs, please? The ones that he's standing, have no purpose at this point...

His dad trains him

Damn look at that cut!

I hardly ever advocate a stoppage but he's go a whole nother eyebrow

I remember why you hate hometown trainers! LOL

That cut IS nasty, and this shot should be stopped. Not like he's losing, but damn, it needs to be stopped.

Damn, that cut is beyond gross.

Is Gomez using his head illegally?

Thats the 2nd time he spit the mouthpiece out! He's doin it intentionally!

Okay, here we go...the ref needs his camera time, hence the frequent time-outs that he's been calling.

Speaking of camera time...here goes those freakin' twins getting their time.

well porter showed he had what it takes, continue even when things arent going his way, but as bnoles said, what if he was fighting someone that could punch, I mean the left hook and right hand from Gomez just couldnt miss. Maybe its because there was less lateral movement? Who knows, anyways am knackered and this is a sleep day for me, so am missing the next fight.

Welp, Porter can look forward to another lay off. That cut is nasty

"And STILL undefeated.....who, btw, needs to get that Grand Canyon closed......Shaaaaawn Porter!!!"

I lik this kids attitude. He didnt look gr8 but he worked his but off and used that hand speed. O well. Win this one, loo good in the next.

True Story, Franchize

Ha!

i know its all for publicity and all, but theres a time and a place for something like that, and to me, its not on a boxing card

Who is don king promoting? Haven't seen him on a big network in a while.
I'm guessing this is Robert's audition to face Mayweather. Let's see what he can do at WW
