    Shawn Porter has the same style as Mike Tyson. If you have a slick defensive style (like Michael Spinks, Carl Williams, and Tony Tucker), and you fight someone like Tyson, you're gonna get beaten decisively.

    Paulie Malignaggi spoke a lot of trash about Al Haymon after he got robbed in the first Juan Diaz fight, so then Al Haymon signed Paulie and threw him in there with Shawn Porter.

    Then Adrien Broner, another slick defensive fighter, did a lot of stupid things to make Al Haymon angry, like asking him for loans and to get him out of trouble. Again, Al Haymon got sick and tired of him and threw him to the wolves: Shawn Porter.

    Shawn Porter = Al Haymon's "Punisher" :deal

    Also the same eyes and eyebrows. He has the looks to be a great badass and PPV star if he wasn't such a nice person.

    Hes a poor mans Tyson who has been picked apart at times by better boxers.
    Hes a great guy, but lets not go crazy.

    Exactly his power is not even close, his technique too. Tyson was actually extremely skilled unlike Porter who is very lacking in the fundamentals department.

    Haymon is not happy with Broner that's why they threw him in with Porter. Haymon isn't happy with Broner's out of the ring problems been arrested like 2 times in 3 months and his diva like behavior in negotiations. Haymon is letting him sink or swim and right now he's sinking.

    Did Haymon tell you this personally, or are you trying to somehow save face on behalf of Haymon and Mayweather??? :huh

    It doesn't take very much "common sense" to realize Broner was being coddled here.

    Shawn Porter was being fed to Broner and it backfired... The expression in Mayweather's face was priceless during the fight. :lol:

    This thread is comical.

    Porter is a mediocre fighter.

    It's a stupid video whereby someone says they have sources that Haymon is mad at Broner. Honestly, the video doesn't say sh!t that we don't already know. Anyone would be frustrated with their fighter getting arrested, etc. It's what he does about the situation that proves his frustration.

    Making someone "sink or swim" doesn't involve setting up an entire even that was pro-Broner (ref being awful, one judge having the fight close, commentary team licking Broner's a$$). Plus, Haymon tried to drain Porter. If it wasn't for Broner being so fat, the rehydration clause would've went forward and Porter would've came in looking like a corpse.

    no disrespect to Porter, but he's no more than a skill-deprived brawler with an endless gas tank and could probably do 20 rounds if needed

    I'll give Shawn Porter all the credit in the world for using his limited attributes to Broner the Broner's of the world.

    TS has a point.

    If you're Al Haymon, and you want to milk Broner for big money, would you put him in with Porter? :-(

    don't get me wrong, I much prefer watching a limited Porter brawling than Broner clowning and fouling
