    Porter showed against Brook how ineffective his pressure is.
    In the past Porter has showed he has boxing skills and has
    enough power at WW to trouble people. Knowing how Maidana's
    pressure troubled Broner at WW will team Porter decide to try the
    same tactics employed against Brook and if they do how will the fight go?

    I think broner can outbox Porter. Maidana and Porter's pressure are quite different, and Maidana hits a hell of a lot harder.

    Yep. I agree. I don't know if this is a wise fight for Porter. He could have been matched fairly and easier at WW with people who his style suits more. I do fear Ken Porter isn't the best for tactics judging by the Brook fight.
