    Why is Porter getting so much hype just because he blasted out Malignaggi?



    Malignaggi is a feather dusting bum, I'm suprised that didn't happen earlier in his career.

    I would KTFO Malignaggi in a boxing match at a 150lb catchweight, it wouldn't even be close.

    If Porter beats Thurman maybe he can get the Mayweather fight but I still think both guys are overrated.

    Khan would pepper Porter for 12 rounds and leave him a bloody mess. Khan>Porter.

    Because new fans are posers. They have no idea what it means for a fighter to actually be "good" and ready.

    That being said, I dont know why you think Khan would dominate him. Khan has 1 fight at welter.

    Paulie has lasted because he is an above avg boxer with a terrific chin.

      Porter is in for a fall, everyone here making him out to be a monster will call him a hype job by the time he loses next. It may well be Brook.

        Although he looked good doing it, it's not fair to label him the division boogeyman after beating Malignaggi. Lemme see him in there with Khan or Thurman, or Maidana. Or even a Robert Guerrero...

            That is what looking good does gets you hype, even against a total scrub opponent and Malinaggi is not a total scrub who never got did like that.

              Are we going to ignore the Alexander fight? Three impressive back to back performances.

                It's his Devon Alexander win that got people talking , i'm not going to say he is the welterweight 'boogyman' but he def has potential to be great.

                  Devon Alexander is another feather duster, but that's a decent win but nothing warranting Mayweather.

                    Would love to see Khan try to "pepper" Porter.

                    Make the fight!
