    We all know Porter is fairly limited but works hard as fk, Broner on the other hand has shown a lot of promise but likes to get fat and rap on his time off.

    No.

    Porter is just as talented if not more.

    Broner showed no talent last night.

    His only weapon was the left hook trying to counter Porter coming in from range.

    Broner couldn't setup his distance at all...

    Commentary was awful from PBC.

    I didn't see much dedication on Broner's part, but Porter has some talent

    I don't know what the ultimate example would be. Broner has some physical gifts and tools, but it's often overstated. He's got fast hands and some athleticism, nothing extraordinary as far as world class fighters go. He's not exactly Michael Nunn or Hector Camacho on the talent (wasted) scale.
