Michael Woods and others have suggested that this will likely happen at WW, although there is still doubt about specifics. It seems very well-matched to me, and regardless of whether it happens who would you favor?
Welter showdown @AdrienBroner vs @ShowtimeShawnP 99 confirmed.
And from a blocked site:
Sources close to the situation have confirmed that a June 20 clash between three-division former world champion Adrien Broner and former welterweight champion Shawn Porter is nearly finalized. It's unclear if the bout will take place at the welterweight limit of 147 pounds, as there are conflicting reports that the fighters may have agreed to a 144-pound catchweight, but nevertheless, we're told that the fight is definitely a go.
Broner is coming off of a dominant unanimous decision victory over John Molina this past March. It was his third fight as a 140-pounder since moving back down in weight after losing his 147-pound title to Marcos Maidana. Porter is also coming off of a victory this past March, scoring a 5th round knockout of late replacement Erick Bone. Although details are still being worked out, our understanding is that the June 20 PBC card will likely take place at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, though a battle between the Ohio natives might be better suited for Broner's hometown of Cincinnati.
