        Yep, but tbh I as good as floyd is I wouldn't want to associate myself with him. He is in all honesty a guy who has a history of domestic violence who tries to monopolise the sport.
        It sounds strange and it'll probably never happen but if you shut Broner in a gym with hopkins for just 1 hour I guarantee Broner would benefit from it. Imho hopkins can drop bombs of knowledge that mayweather could not.
        But I agree with you he gets a lot of unnecessary hate. You are right in saying he doesn't flaunt anymore and it's good to hear that the band camp has lost a few members but it will take time for people to move on. Even though he says he isn't humble you can tell the maidana loss changed him. He doesn't seen to be getting as out if shape as he used to be and he seems a bit more focused. Molina was a rubbish fight but Taylor seems like a good fight to get into the swing of things.

          Showtime would just flat run over the not-so-mobile, not-that-slick, Broner.

          Broner has some heart and is not entirely without skills/speed/power but I think it would be just a whole ****load of hard punches comin' at him fast and from all angles non stop until they threw in the brush.

          I got Shawn by late tko.

            Yeah same, porter has some decent skills too. People seem to think he's a brawler but he's got some good skills.

              Broner gets totally stomped by Porter, and I'd love to see it.

                Hopkins does advise broner.

                Broner was at Hopkins' last fight showing support

                But obviously the clowns on here will continue to hate on broner

                  I've developed an impression of him a little bit like a younger Pacman recently.

                  Please nobody freak out. I'm not talking about Showtime being great like Pac. He's got alot to accomplish before I would mention him in that context.

                  What I do see is a young,fast,strong guy with alot of determination (and stamina to back it up) that moves around the ring alot on offense and uses his offense for his defense even to the point of being a bit reckless with it.

                  I think at this point he overwhelms alot of good fighters around his weight class that don't have a plan for that kind of intensity.

                    Porter has got a lot of love based on beating two feather fisted WW. Not saying he is not a really good fighter but he hasn't faced anyone who could hurt him as he comes lunging in with hooks. Don't know if Brook possesses the ability to do so cause I haven't really seen him fight. Styles make fights and porter faced 2 guys he could run through recently. I'm holding back judgment until I see him in with a different syle.

                      Yeah, this is pretty much my view as well. Brook won't be as easy he isn't feather dusted and he has heart. When you look at his history it ticks all the boxes: good amateur career, great gym (ingles) and good record so far. I think porter can win if he boxes well and doesn't focus too much on a stoppage. This is going to be good because it's a big test in both guys careers. Although I'm slightly favouring porter only because he beat Devon.
