    If Canelo was green then what the hell is Porter?

    Canelo's been a pro since 2005, and was #1 at 154, and champion.

    Be objective.

    Styles make fights, and I think EVERYONE knows that Porter has a style that would be problematic for PBF... FACT, PBF will NEVER look at him or Thurman...

    Porter would need some exposure first, before he gets that shot. Putting him on the Mayweather undercard vs Thurman would be great. But, even putting him with Alexander would serve the purpose. Without playing the Pac card, a Maidana rematch is the most viable option for the main event.

    Perhaps. But, I am not so sure about that. Based on what I have seen from all 3 guys of late, I'd order them 1) Porter 2) Maidana 3) Pac, in terms of danger.

    Do you know who Floyd is ?

    Do you honestly believe 37 year old Floyd will get into the ring with Shawn Porter ?

    I would say Chino slightly edges him in punching power . Porter got heavy hands himself though .

    Porters power is getting seriously overrated, he couldnt KO Julio Diaz over 20 rounds, a career lightweight with 5 KO losses, yet suddenly he's the second coming of Mike Tyson.

    He rocked Alexander . He was the first man to ever hurt him . Not even a banger like Matthysee could do that to him .

    He LAID OUT Malignaggi who is very well known for having an Iron Chin .

    Matthysse dropped Alexander and definitely hurt him
