    The same people crying foul on Porter are the same people that state that absolutely no way was Manny on PEDs when practically overnight he started killing people in weight classes he seemingly had no business being in.

    You can't have it both ways.

    As far as I am concerned I think Porter (and Manny) get the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise and I'm going to subscribe with the 10,000 hour theory that it basically takes time and dedication to get to an elite stage in anything, which might explain why even the most talented fighters are protected for so long on the way up before they are truly tested. If fed to someone that much more seasoned before they are ready they often fail and then make the mistake of trying to prove themselves next fight out in a rematch or against another tough opponent and when it comes crashing down are often simply called hype jobs and discarded instead of simply inexperienced. Again I look toward Manny's early career defeats and the opportunities he was thankfully given thereafter.

    I think we could see dominating performance from Porter on Saturday.

    Relatively speaking? Knowing that the opponent is a C level fighter and has nothing at all for you to worry about. I honestly dont see how people can even begin to wonder how Porter knew how to press his advantages against an old ass Paulie as much as they sparred.

    These days Paulie is about on the level of Jarrod Fletcher, hes gonna get his ass beat by anyone with some basic skills and some pop.

    I know I made a similar point about Paulie on a different Porter thread, Paulie's awkward stance left him open to Porter neck jarring left hooks, very easy to figure out why that KO happened, that being said his reluctance to do doping tests and working with Conte does send up a red flag.

    increased levels of testosterone for aggression, weight training or roids for power.

    that's all a myth except for the testosterone boost.weight training does not give you power neither does taking ped's.porter does look suspicious as hell because of working with conte but everyone is too quick to throw ped allegations these days.innocent until proven guilty.
