I'm not really sold on the Porter hype

[GhostBlade]

Porter isn't really a power puncher since most of his recent wins went to decision. Beating a battered Paulie didn't prove anything. Thurman should be able to run through Porter.

I'm not sold yet on either guy. They both need some polishing; but they're both young.

I can't wait until they fight; both will be tested. And I agree with OP; Thurman has that scary aura.

[John Locke]

When/if Thurman vs Porter happens, Porter will be the aggressor imo, Thurman will fight on the backfoot.

Stylistically this match-up favours Thurman, I think Porter could walk into something big.

Sold on what, him being a future ATG hall of famer? He has already proved to be a good fighter, people need to stop putting ridiculous expectations on fighters. Porter for the most part has already surpassed most expectations of him

[PAKYO]

Porter will put all those lingering doubts about his being a great fighter.

Porter really surprised me in his last 2 fights, came out like a monster and got the job done impressively, he looks unstoppable in there.

Thurman also looks good but seems more vulnerable. I can't predict that fight but it would be great, slightly leaning towards Porter. I look forward to watching both of them

People are talking about him being a legitimate threat to Mayweather, and I'm not sold on whether he has the potential to be that.

Is being the greatest NSB poster/boxer of all time not enough for some people?!

But for reals he's decent. I dont think hes future p4p no,1 or anything but he has an exciting style and he has shown a lot of improvements over the last few years, which bodes well for the future. He seems pretty well rounded as a technician, but also has that fire in him which we all love to watch

Both him and Thurman have a lot of proving to do if they are going to reach the level some fans have put them at!

He is a cleaner faster version of Maidana, who had some success against Mayweather
