Because Spence always put some great deposits to the body and Porter usually fades by round 6...unless something happen before that...I got Spence finishing him in rnd 8 or 9...\why does everyone think Spence walks over Porter? Porter is a tough guy with a hard to deal with style.

Yeah this is more or less the way I see it. Porter tends to jab or force his way in and turns his fights into phone booth brawls, using volume, pressure and physical strength. Porters outside and midday game is pretty limited, It’s basically just his jab and the occasional follow up right hand so we can reasonably assume he will try take the fight inside. Problem is his inside game will likely hit a brick wall here, since he will be meeting his match in terms of physical strength in Spence. Even with the weight cut Spence is probably even stronger. Porter’s flurries will probably look good for the first few rounds but Spence is more accurate and is really effective to the body. Once Porter’s body gets battered he’ll have a hard time breathing and at that point he’s fucked.He doesnt have a style that lends well to fighting Spence.

Porter is going to get destroyed imo. Hell have a few fun rounds but Spence will break him.
My big gripe with Porter is how square he gets when he's in on his man trying to fire away with everything he has. I mean he's fully facing his opponent at times with both feet next to eachother. He's light and bouncey on his feet but he does not move his feet well when exchanging.
A guy like Spence will capitalize on that. Spence is composed, with his lead foot always facing his opponents center line just like Andre Ward used to.
