I'm big on Porter. Catchweights a curveball.
Re: Betting on Porter seems easy $$$

Rehydration clause has been removed.
Get your bets in on Porter now while the line is even money.

I don't know about this one it's close.
Yes Porter will take it to Broner, but Porter isn't exactly the most accurate boxer in the world, high energy yes.
The judges will have to watch closely to make sure Porter lands scoring punches rather than flurries which look good but miss.
Broner is the better boxer in my book but he gets lazy sometimes, if Broner gets his nose in front early he could potentially win by a fairly wide margin and frustrate Porter .
I like Broner's heart, he showed against Maidana he can take it and give it and rally late if called upon, Porter will keep going all night but can get sloppy.
The early rounds are very important for Broner and ones that he must win.
I hope Broner is well prepared and has taken this seriously because Porter will no doubt take the fight right to him.
I'm looking forward to this whoever wins.

I picked Porter reluctantly, but you can't deny that Broker has talent. I think he has heart and talent we have not seen yet.
The catchweight and 154 hydration limit BS rubs me wrong, so I hope Porter kos him.

Don't get me wrong Porter is a live one Badhusker it's a solid bet.
I just think it has the potential to go either way which is what makes the fight appealing.

If it was at 147 clean I'd almost guarantee a Porter victory. I still favor him but the catch weight makes it less definitive.
Not sure how the Brook fight made so many think he was suddenly a welterweight Sam Peter. The fight was competitive and generally messy; it's not like Porter was dominated.
Broner has some skills but his defense has holes and he fights flat-footed. If Porter fights in his aggressive style with his usual top-flight stamina, I can't see how Broner fends him off enough to win.

Re: Betting on Porter seems easy $$$
Evander's evaluation is really spot-on for both boxers.
Porter is aggressive and has heart but I don't think he's precise enough to take down a boxer with the patience and defensive skill of Broner.
I think Porter will try to bring the fight to him early but tire out due to chasing Broner and throwing a high volume of punches that miss.
Once Porter tires out it will be easy fight for Broner, he'll just pick him apart with the jab.

porter stoppage, for me
Re: Betting on Porter seems easy $$$
I thought Porter would bring too much pressure for Broner, but with some of the guys who are picking Shawn now, I'm not sure what to think.
Re: Betting on Porter seems easy $$$
Big time Props to Porter, especially with the catch weight thing and all. He is in tremendous shape, and is a credit to his dedication to the sport. He took it to Broner and has a bright future.

Apart from the KD in the last round it was a pretty boring uneventful fight with Broner getting away with far too much holding before he was finally docked,I'm glad Porter won,he deserved it,I scored it 117-110,Adrien's a waste of space who has bags of talent but is just too lazy and uninspired to take a fight by the scruff of the neck,he'd be better off at light welterweight
Re: Betting on Porter seems easy $$$
117-109, 10 rounds to Porter.
