Whats the deal with Shawn Porter?

I've been wondering the exact same thing.

Something I think he needs to consider, if he plans on becoming a World Champion, is switching trainers.

I think he'd be better served to pick up Freddy Roach and maybe keep his father on as an adviser or assistant.

Of course he's at a point where he needs to step it up and fight some name opponents.

I'd like to see Porter vs. Berto, Porter vs. Maidana, Porter vs. Paulie M. or Porter vs. Ortiz

I'd favor him against Maidana.

Berto & Ortiz could go either way.

Paulie could be interesting, assuming Paulie has the chin to hang in there.

 

Im rooting for the guy (Cleveland fighter) but he doesn't have it, he's too small and doesn't have the power to make up for his disadvantage in size.

 

Didn't read your post...most;y cause I'm drunk. Bahahahhaaaa....but just wanted to say really great avatar my friend:good

 

last i heard he had problems with his promoters

 

"After 14-month layoff (promotional issues), 147 prospect Shawn Porter returns vs Dashon Johnon in 8-rder April 28 on Hopkins-Dawson II card."

Fat Dan.

 

Nice to see Porter back in action, hope he can remain active again.

 

Shawn Porter is overrated . i don't expect him to get to far in the 147 lb pool

 

Dude what the FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK are you talking about? Who the flying hell is "rating" a ****ing prospect with a hand full of fights? NO ONE..

aaa durrr durr durrrr, shawn porter is over rated.. durrr durrr durr

:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

You dumb! Have some respect for a guy whos hanged in the amateur ranks, it ain't built for pussies like you who call fighters who are trying to make a living, "overrated"
