  • Shawn Porter v Paulie Malignaggi

    Could this fight potentially happen next?

    Maidana and Broner are now no-go for Paulie and I think Porter has a grace period of 6 months before he fights his mandatory, Kell Brook.

    Taking a fight against a high profile name like Paulie coming off a Judah win could make sense. How do you see the fight going?

    Kell Brook seems to think there's a rematch coming.... so there's still that.

    I don't know how I'd see that fight going to answer your question....

      Very tough fight to predict. Truly 50/50

        An Alexander-Porter rematch?

          Yup...mentioned it in a sky interview

          "I just wanted to go for the world title fight, but Porter winning it off Devon, it has given him a little bit of extra time. I think he can get in a voluntary. I'm hearing that they're having a rematch."

            I'm comfortable picking Porter beat to Paulie. I think he can successfully smother him and prevent Paulie from getting off.

            Porter by DEC

              Ooh Porter vs Pauli would be a great match-up. I think it'd go the distance and Porter would win a close decision.

                It would actually be a pretty good fight, both guys are similar in stature, both guys have terrific handspeed and reactions. I think Porter, due to his youth has the advantage in speed and he has a great tank, He hits a little harder too so I reckon Porter pulls out a win based on work rate and ability to connect. Having said that, Paulie will make it close and has a very good chance here.

                I'd rather see Brook v Porter though so that we can finally see Brook get the recognition he deserves.

                  Porter's a tough fight for Brook imo, he's not going to go away for 12 rounds and there are questions over Brook's stamina.

                    I like Paulie in this one. I can see him outboxing and outhustling Porter.
