    no, he has a lot of physical talent but he still has much more work to be done if he wants to jump in with the elites

    Nah, not right now. He has two very little step up fights, he needs quite a bit to even be ready for Berto. I would say about another 3 or 4 more fights against nice, quality opponents and then may'be take on Danny Garcia and the winner of that goes on to fight for a World title.

    He'll never been in Cotto's league. Berto beats him, can't say anything more encouraging than that. Mosley still wins. OF COURSE.

    He's nowhere close to ready for any of those fights, but he's damn fun to watch imo.

    :rofl

    Shawn Porter will never be ready for Cotto or Mosley (even if SSM sticks around into his 50's).

    Berto isn't as good as advertised, so that one might be closer.

    I really don't think much of Porter tbh. He'll fail at the top.

    Definitely not ready for Berto but Mosely is on the way out and Cotto looks realy cracked. He is an interesting prospect who could develop if he is brought along the right way.

    Shawn Porter is a beast, not only that, he has a great skillset, and is exciting, I dont see why he cant eventually mix in that company.

    Berto aint all that, Mosley is done imo, Cotto is probably considered past prime now.
