    anybody ever seen Porter fight or is this hype entirely create off 10 seconds of sparring with Pacquiao. I'm gonna watch his fight on friday I hope he's worth the talk.

    He's been on TV about 8 times now. If you regularly watch FNF, you've seen him a bunch of times before.

    He's small for his weight (but he's planning on moving down to welter eventually), but he went 270-12 as an amateur and punches hard and in quick combinations. Had wins over Korobov, Jacobs, etc. in the amateurs, so he's not some flash in the pan who's just getting hype over sparring with Pac. He has some serious physical limitations that will impede him in the pro game, but he's a decent prospect.

    The Russian kid... Korobov?? He looks to have a TON of potential.

    edit: my bad, he's a middleweight. Weighed in at 160 on the button in his last fight tho, so who knows?

    He's in the same boat as Kirkland. Both have greater potential to fulfill, but I wouldn't exactly call them prospects given they are both world-level.
