Shot of the Day

Former IBF welterweight champion “Showtime” Shawn Porter takes a break from training at the Charter Oak Boxing Academy (COBA) in Hartford, Connecticut, to give some words of wisdom to local up-and-coming boxers Naomi Cortes, Jada Wyatt and Janyia Lumpkin. Porter is in Connecticut for two weeks doing remote live commentary for the boxing at the Olympic Games in Tokyo.

Completely agree and hopefully those kids can appreciate that type of opportunity – to pick that guy’s brain about boxing. He’s been everywhere you want to go and might be there again.

Note who the photographer is. The Iceman.

Or Richard Kuklinkski

Class act. All the way class act.

Any given opportunity to learn is an opportunity to embrace, comprehend, and most of all, reach a horizon…

Did any of the kids ask Porter why he never rematched Ugas after he lost to him?

Crawford will beat Porter easier than anybody…Crawford might even stop him…

I agree Crawford will win. Porter smothers himself and must stand in the pocket to get his fight plan going. It’s a predictable style in my opinion. Crawford will rack points upon movement and those counter left hooks moving laterally off the balls of his feet. Porter will have to constantly be moving to even get within combat range against Crawford.

Showtime Shawn is definitely a class act and brings it every time he steps in the ring. He’s more than earned a seven figure payday against Crawford and hope he can make a good account of himself five years removed from his war with Keith Thurman and two years after the battle with Spence. It’s asking an awful lot from him at this point.

Certainly class act, good commentator, fun to watch in the ring… certainly cemented life after boxing as a commentator, boxing ambassador…just as good as Andre Ward…also special that he is doing this with his father and they are respectful towards each other…that is no family drama…

Awesome guy. Lets just hope Al Haymon doesn’t get in the way of his change at glory and a huge payday.

I love Porter and he’s a classy guy but enough of the kid talk. He’s taking on his gravest challenge because Crawford is a man with a chip on his shoulders which makes him DANGEROUS. Porter might get stopped if Arum doesn’t find a way to screw this fight up and prevent it from happening.
