    he is physical and strong with speed power and a superior inside game and lots of stamina, is young and will put it on Floyds asss......

    Maidana fought at his absolute capacity and ran out of steam in the middle rds, it cost him. He will not duplicate that effort, as Mayeather will adjust. Im not a great believer in a rematch victory for Maidana, he lackS the physical skills and athleticism to get it done

    Porter, however has the strength, physicality and inside, game to be all over Mayweather like a cheap suit. That's the fight that should be made that or Pac or Martinez if he beats Cotto.

    Porter is like an athletic version of Maidana with MORE power.

    you seem to understand, but will these other mugs on ESB even have the imagination to be able to comprehend this? No! they will argue rematch. Maidnana will then lose in a boring points win for Floyd. Lets not waste our time move on. I simply no longer have any interest in watching Mayweather fuk around. I want to see young blood in there Porter is the only one of the young guns, who I am sold on vs anyone at welter out there today.

    Won't happen. Floyd needs big names to make up for all the loses Showtime has incurred showing his fights.

    The next fight will be Khan and they're going to market the hell out of it in the UK.

    Floyd won`t even look at Porter or Thurman, lets get real here... We`re talking about tow prime,legit contenders,with skills and athleticism to beat PBF. Does anyone really think he`d sign to fight a true threat ?

    Mayweather vs Kahn will do absolutely nothing here in the States and I wont even follow that tap fest.

    I don't think the demand is all that high for a rematch. There is a sense that Maidana did the best he could and still couldn't get the win. Porter might follow the Maidana pressure blueprint and in a way I'd like to see that fight more than the Maidana rematch. But as somebody above said Showtime will be nervous about Porter not being a big name.

    Agreed. He should fight Porter or Lara.

    It`s not PBF hatred, the reality is that the last time PBF fought someone who was prime,best weight and had a good shot was Chico, many,many moons ago ...
