Mythical Matchup
Would Canelo's power be too much for Porter at 154?
Porter could definitely make 154 and be healthy and fit.
I think it's an interesting matchup. I lean towards Alvarez though I think Porter would have a strong showing.
The real question would be whether or not it goes the distance....
Smh once again. Why don't you guys educate yourselves more before posting threads and what not. Porter has never been to 154/155lbs before. So, why is this even being considered? Common sense should tell you that by looking at his frame, it wouldn't be wise to put any more muscle onto his body. I feel the same about Bradley. Porter gets KTFO by Canelo and Bradley gets KTFO by Cotto at 154lbs. What is wrong with you idiots???????
You guys hate on Canelo so much that you think a B Level fighter like Porter can even go 8 rounds with him??? Based on what? Canelo is too fast, too big, too strong, and too smart. Period. Size matters in boxing and it always has. Size negates skill.
Porter use to fight at 154
This just proves that ole dude DKSAB! LMAO
please dude, porter had trouble with brooks' strength on the inside. canelo alvarez is maybe the biggest and most drained 154 lber that i've ever seen. he's got to be taking drugs to make that weight.

in 30 hours! canelo was probably a smw fight night.
Yes it mexican coco,Cocaine helps to gain waight fast man,this cartel mofos are giving him best staff.
Porter would bully Canelo to the ropes and force him to counter on the backfoot. It's would be a war that depends on whether or not Porter can not smother his own work.

Porter actually started his pro career at MW and fought there as an amateur. It wouldn't be that bad a match-up size-wise, but Canelo's hands are much better, and Porter's not a big puncher.
I'm curious how Porter would do vs J-Rock (assuming he beats Charlo).
Canelo smashes Porter, Porter couldn't push or outmuscle Brook and struggled as a result. I think a fully re-hydrated Canelo is way too big and too strong for him, that's not even factoring in Canelo's superior technical ability.
Porter comes to fight. He charges in hard and fast with both hands blazing. I think that would get him KOed by Canelo fairly quickly. He was badly hurt by a Broner left hook and Canelo hits a hell of a lot harder than Broner with either hand and any punch. Canelo is a much better and faster handed boxer than Porter and he has an iron jaw. Porter can't hurt him and he can't outbox him so he can't win. Canelo would beat him if he was a welterweight but he is a big Jr middleweight so that just makes his job easier.Just my honest opinion.

The problem is that Porter would try to bully Canelo into the ropes and Canelo is honestly really f ucking good off the ropes and would rip counters and uppers at Porter. Porter would also likely eat huge shots trying to even cover the distance he needs to make tk try and be effective...and even when he gets in he's likely not in much better shape once he's out of mid range.
Look at the Kirkland fight...it would probably be a near replica imo. I like Porter a ton but Canelo is naturally a bad matchup. Canelo is just flat out better to be honest...size aside.
Lets not let hate cloud our judgement. Canelo really is in another class compared to Porter.
Smh...

if porter bulks up well, porter wins. And i genuinely mean that, its not some anti canelo comment. Porter is a really good world class fighter, on another night he could have wins against thurman and brook and be right up there p4p, the fights were that close.
Porter has no defense and swings wildly..Canelo would eat him for breakfast
Seems like Canelo moving up when he returns and will fight either Lemiuex or Billy Joe
I wouldn't mind seeing Porter vs Cotto though that would be a good match up
I'm not a Canelo fan but he'd probably be the first to stop or seriously hurt Porter. Canelo would get in the ring 15+ pounds bigger, in addition to him already being naturally bigger. As a poster stated above, he'd smother his own work when Canelo would allow him to get in. I think Porter would get counter punched and combo punched all night...body head head...body body head.
If we got Canelo/Khan and GGG/Brook this doesnt seem very farfetched. This fight does nothing for Canelo's career but I can see it being a very entertaining fight.
Maybe it happens. I can see 147 being hard for Porter to make in the future given his mass....

He always smothers his own work, it's his biggest fault as a fighter.
