early mid or late? i think after the 5th broner is on borrowed time and is going to get brutalised. but porter could murder him fast like he did to malignaggi.
Porter isn't as good as Maidana but you don't need to be to trouble Broner. The problem for Broner is that i don't think Broner can hurt Porter. Which then means Porter will just lean with power shots and likely stop him. But with the weight stipulation this could be a fight where Broner does well. I think this will go the distance but would not be surprised at all if there's an early to mid round stoppage for Porter.
Reality Check time for Broner fans. Broner was getting out boxed by Gavin Rees for a few rounds before the stoppage. Broner should have lost against Ponce De Leon but won by robbery. Quintero beat Broner and was robbed on points. Emanuel Taylor sans KD should have gotten a draw. Paulie beat him or at the very least should have gotten a draw. Maidana beat the hell out of him. And even the very average Carlos Molina won a few rounds early. Porter will eat him alive and KO him.
exactly all dis. he hasnt looked great against low opposition. he is lazy, takes rounds off. porter is predictable but brook is a smarter and stronger fighter than broner, and brook really did have to use his strength and mental fortitude against swarming porter, it wasnt a cloee fight but it wasnt an easy fight at all. broner is getting knocked out!
Broner fans like I said in an earlier post dismiss Porter as a hypejob of their own creating after the loss to Brook as a way to diminish the accomplishment of Kell. Well they can think that all they want but come Saturday they are by proxy going to see just how good Kell Brook is, when Porter handles Broner potentially better than Maidana. Also Broner should have lost to Paulie, Porter almost knocked his brain loose they were afraid the lining on his brain was in danger of rupturing. If they need a comparison to draw upon.
oh dear didnt know that about paulie no wonder he has been off for some time, hes well known for being tricky and durable aswell. broner hasnt got the best chins. porter will be seen as top 10 ww easily by the time of brook and thurman arrives, the nexr gen of wws, hes right in the mix.
He came damn close to a tear according to doctors maybe one or two more shots would have done it. http://nypost.com/2014/05/09/concussed-malignaggi-glad-referee-stopped-his-bout-with-porter/ http://ringtv.craveonline.com/news/...irement-shawn-porter-hurt-me-with-every-punch
with the catchweight and the rehydratation clause is kind of a 50/50 fight right now I think. I hope Porter smashes him to little chunks, but I think it will turn out to be a close contest
ouch!to think paulie took a 11th round beating from khan and prime hatton. aswell as surviving junito.
With a broken jaw no less, and did better against Cotto than most people give him credit for with said broken jaw. Broner fans need to be afraid.
Not a fan of either but I enjoy watching Porter as it is all action but I believe with the catchweight and rehydration clause, that Broner will win this on points or stop Porter late. Porter to me looked to struggle to make 147 for the Brook fight so I cant see him making it down to 143/144 whichever it is and still be 100%
