Comments Thread For: Porter: I Would Match Up Great With Adrien Broner

[Larry the boss]

Would love to see this fight

If they didn't do a weigh-in, Rafael is just throwing a number outta his ass like everyone else. Very much like how people say Floyd weighed over 160 for JMM when the guy's never entered the ring above 150. At least that has been documented. Personally, I don't think AB was above 155. I've seen him live. Damn near ringside. And he's tiny. Much like Floyd. Eventhough he's a lil thicker than Floyd. But Floyd's a lil taller and longer.

Yeah but rafael has good sources so its plausible

But back to the original point. Regardless of who you thought was bigger on fight night. AB ddnt look four divisions bigger than Demarco. I know you weren't the one who said that. But either way, that was a ridiculous post. Regardless of which side of the argument you're on.

Good fights on saturday...i think karrass might be able to pull out a draw if he can take thurmans punches,the rosado fight was stopped early in my opinion...man broner is in tough,and not just on paper,this is legit i think broner will win it though on a late stoppage 10th or 11th round..doubt it goes 12

Not sold on Thurman yet and Karrass takes a good punch... that fight should def be interesting.

I'm not sold on Thurman. I've been following him since I saw him live on the Broner-Esconedo undercard. He just doesn't do it for me. He's almost like Jermain Taylor in that he doesn't look like a natural fighter. Nothing he does is fluid. And he appears to have to think about everything he does instead of it being instinct. He's got talent. So I don't know if Karass is gonna beat him. But I don't expect much from Thurman as the comp gets better and better.

As for AB, I thought SHOWCASE when the fight was being discussed. But seeing how he allowed himself to balloon after the Paulie fight, I'm nervous as a fan of his. He's gonna have to be sharp and on his A game. And if he's not, he could wind up looking at the lights. I'm very disappointed in what I've seen from AB after the Paulie fight.

Who would have guessed when we went to Cincy that Thurman would be AB's mandatory a year later? Thurman is so much bigger than AB in person that that was laughable to even think about back then.

But wait isnt Broner so much bigger and muscular than all his competition? Is he much bigger than Maidana as well? Wasnt sure?

[FrankieBruno]

Porter is a dark horse, people are sleeping on this guy, his style poses a threat to a lot of boxers

Broner makes it past Maidana, he might have his hands full with Porter

[Respect Power]

Must admit I don't know much of porter except for what I saw on Saturday, judging on that I think it would be a good fight and an excellent challenge for broner. Hope it gets made if broner gets past Maidana , which I think is a big test for broner who hasn't faced a puncher yet. Questions will be ansewed on Saturday night, can't wait.
