Non stop effective pressure like what Shawn porter displays, it seems to me that that is the only chance u have to beat these guys like Floyd, Bhop, ridondeaux ect. is to come in swinging and overwhelm these guys, now what comes to my mind is how Floyd handled hatton, but hatton didn't come in swinging he waited till he got inside then started swinging. How can u beat these guys?
The thing is Porter is a 165 fighter. As soon as I realized that fact (I read it on this forum yesterday), I started to think that it was not a loud win, but some kind of disgrace. Condolences to Paulie.
Yeah, but he's not much different from guys like Maidana, Ortiz, Guerrero, Mosley, etc. Who have all come into fight night above 160 lbs as Welterweights.
I'm not comparing Paulie to any of these guys as a matter of fact I didn't even mention Paulie, Bhop I think would make u pay with a counter or clinch but Floyd would not stand there if u bull rushed him if u think of it, against Guerrero or anyone else the fights all starts like that but they stop and stand in front of him and start thinking and he pops them and move for the rest of the fight

This is also true. All 3 would run you into something that'd keep you honest.
B-hop would run you into a clinch
Rigo would run you into a marathon trying to make him engage in a fight
Mayweather would make you run to get the fight with him if he thought you could beat him

Also the bold isn't true, Hatton punched his way in and had some success landing until Mayweather slowed him down.
I don't see it working at all, Mayweather has filled in since wrestling with Hatton and couldn't be controlled physically by Ortiz, Guerrero or Mosley. Porter is doing this against weak to decent punchers, fighters who don't counter well or can't fight a lick on the inside, on top of that I still see openings when he rushes in. I see Mayweather using his forearms to push off, even intimidating with his elbows (Mayweather is taller) and obviously getting the better in close and countering Porter as he comes in.
Again, look at who Porter is doing this to. Lets not get too hyped up, if he's able to do this against a good heavy handed counter puncher in Thurman, then it's time to take Porter this serious.
Because Pauli Malignaggi is equivalent to Floyd,Bhop and Rigo or even similar in about 0% of things the comparisson or the assumption is completely retarded. Bhop for example takes your relentless aggressiveness and shoves it up your own ass while mind fking you.

Hatton was smaller than Floyd and looked thoroughly out of his dept in his 1st appearance at 147. Porter is a welterweight, actually if I'm not mistaken he's been bigger. Add to that that he displayed strength approaching and surpassing the likes of James Kirkland.
What I'm saying is pressure from a smaller fighter is not as effective as from a bigger more physical fighter.
You have to clinch him, Malignaggi failed to do so (probably because he got buzzed just before) just before he got knocked out and Porter was ferocious
