    Unusually long reach? He has like a +1 or 2 ape index.

    Maybe he just appeared to have a long reach vs Kell Brook.

    All of your wonderful examples would be appreciated.

    Will Super Hans go 0-4 in predicting the outcome of Broners' last 4 fights??? I reckon so!

    Broner clearly doesn't like his chances against Porter at full the full welterweight limit. And the rehydration clause is laughable. At least he's aware of his limitations. Porter will continuously pressure Broner as long as he's not drained to ****. Whether he's a pressure fighter or not is debatable, I guess.

    :huh You might wanna re-think that. Porter ain't no Maidana but he is a pressure fighter.

    I disagree. The catchweight is fair. Brober is not a welterweight. If Porter wanted to fight at 147, fight a welterwight. There are plenty to chose from. Porter is the one trying to get an unfair advantage by fighting a guy he himself said is too small for welterweight.

    Comparing their respective performances against Alexander, you might assume Porter does better against Broner than Maidana did. Alexander's a much more proven WW than Broner, as long as Porters not too drained at the CW he's gonna wreck him

    Smoak goes however many and 0 it is since Khan last lost in predicting the outcome of his fights.. I reckon so

    Broner's last fight was above the Jr welterweight limit, that means he fought as a welterweight, he's also previously held a title as a welterweight. He's struggling to get down to 140 because he balloons in weight between fights. There's no unfair advantage unless a fighter mandates a specific weight and rehydration clause.

    That does not make him a weleterweight. he is obviously undiciplined, but he is not a welterweight. 140 non title fights are always +1. Broner campaignes at 140.

    Pac won a title at 154. Let him fight Canelo. No he wouldnt becuase he is not a 154 pounder.

    If Porter wanted to fight at 147. he could have a pleny of guys. Broner is the one taking the challenge here. just like he did with maidana. but people are praising a top ten weleterweight for fighting 2 lightweights back to back when he could have easily fought Khan, or Thurman. Berto.
