    He's a top 20, top 30 guy. I don't consider that a bum & no its not elite, but its something.

    And idk about nobody. Lundy & Mayfield are decent enough names. Not necessarily top 10, but if they were top 10 Dulorme would be top 10 now. Granted he hasn't done anything except give Crawford a few competitive rounds before getting KO'd since then & its been awhile, but most guys aren't even giving Crawford competitive rounds before getting KO'd or losing wide which should give him some kinda points even though I don't like giving points for L's.

    As for Porter I bet Porter is LOVING staying active. I doubt he had any expectations of Garcia taking a fight anytime soon cuz we all know Garcia fights twice a year & he's not the guy who just randomly pops up for a fight. When Garcia fights we'll hear about it 2-3 months before it goes down so you can bet your life & all your worldly possessions today that Garcia won't be fighting til Sept. 27 at the earliest as of today so Porter should be staying active in the meantime cuz I think thats best for him.

      This will probably be the most competitive fight of the day

        We all know why you don't think Dulorme is a bum cause Porter is fighting him and Crawford beat him. If Danny fought Dulorme you would be calling it a cherry pick!

          Porter stays busy no matter what...back when he was supposed to fight Thurman in March last year instead of June he did a live sparring session to not get rusty

          Garcia will have to do one of three things: face Porter, have a rematch against Peterson, or answer the call of Errol Spence. The Peterson rematch is just an idea I threw out there but it may be better for Danny to take that

            "We" don't know sh^t at all cuz I don't use the term cherry pick unless I'm mocking dummies on this forum cuz they are simpletons & DKSAB. Top 20, top 30 guys aren't bums if they fight Porter or Garcia or anyone else.

              Speaking of Lamont, is he going to sit on his mandatory spot until Thurman throws him a bone sometime in 2018!

                Dulorme has always had the "look" of a guy who was supposed to ascend and ascend; anyway, he's not going to like the action Porter brings.

                I suppose he will have opportunities in the fight to bite down and throw when he needs to throw and that is when Porter is lifting his front leg to comie inside -it's telegraphed to me and that is what part of Brook keyed in on in that fight.

                With his height and technique, he should be able to generate enough power to hurt Porter if he is willing to throw at the right time, just not sure he will do it. He does have the holding part of the blueprint down though as we saw against Mayfield (who resembles Porter's style somewhat). I expect to see the same scary look on Dulorme's face at some point- we'll see if he is able to get through that mental block

                  :lol: probably...remember it took 17 months for him to fight for that spot in the first place
