Boxing fans say Broner got thrashed by Maidana but that to me was actually a competitive fight. Paulie in the other hand just got taken out, dominated, and KO'd in 4 rounds! Based on these forums you'd think Broner got taken out the same way!
Broner would make the fight more interesting. He actually has decent power, he could probably keep Porter honest. The word has been out on Paulie. He can't punch. Which means guys just run up on him with no remorse.
i don't see broner getting knocked out possibly outworked tho... what people have been underrating is Devon Alexanders chin. he's taken punches from the best of them.
i feel you dog. broner should have done that to paulie though but in maybe 7 rds. porter is like a bradley with power in his punches. broner has a great chin f everything else you here about him. i met the young bol in 08 i know he has the goods.
Porter is a different league to Broner at Welterweight as far as I am concerned. For the record I actually felt Malinaggi beat Broner but just you wait until Broner has fought as many world class guys as Malinaggi, he will most likely have been stopped a few times. Porter is very talented in my opinion.
It all comes down to how a certain fighter is hyped, managed and promoted. Broner was well hyped and promoted going in against Maidana, which is why fans still talk about that loss to this day and probably for the entire year. Hell Broner was hyped good enough for Maidana to score a fight with Mayweather after winning.
I think Porter and Thurman are way too physical for Broner, they'd be able to campaign at 154lbs. Broner is blown up, he'd be gutted like a fish.
Maidana's a battering ram and he battered Broner who hung on for 12 rounds, Porter is a tank and he'll run over Broner completely.
