The anticipated matchup starts soon at the Barclay Center and fans are split down the middle when it comes to Danny Garcia (34-1) and Shawn Porter (28-2-1). One of Porter’s fan says the 30-year old is ready to fight and who would know more than this fan: his mother.
“He’s prepared and ready to come out to do whatever he has to do,” she said when I asked if Porter was ready for Garcia.
Porter was in love with boxing at a young age according to his mother. It was hard for her but she wanted him to follow his passion. “All parents want their children to pursue their dream, grow up, go to college, get a career.”
“He’s living the dream through his career. I encourage any parent to encourage their child to follow their dreams,” she said outside the press room as Porter took photos with his father Ken.
We had to see if Porter got his fighting ways from his father and/or his mother and she laughed.
See if she’s ever been in a fight on the next page and what comic book character she compares Porter to when he’s in the ring.
