Because nobody thought Porter would completely destroy him. On paper It was a 50/50 fight. Many people thought Paulie would win but Porter made Paulie look like a nobody and knocked him out in four rounds. Paulie is a tough dude. He's got a big heart and a good chin and never been KO'd. He still has more to prove but it was an impressive performance...How many fans picked a fourth round KO victory for Porter??

Why is Porter getting so much hype just because he blasted out Malignaggi?

It's simple to see how to beat him, catch him on the counter as he lunges in and throw just enough punches to keep up with him. Porter does nothing special but with his limited skill set he has still managed to come far and that's impressive.
