    As he should be. Broner is very inactive against guys who try to rough him up. Porter is a cut above those guys he's struggled with. He's either gonna have to show us more than he has in the past, or hope Porter is weight drained in order to come out victorious. Unless of course the judges don't do their part, as pointed out already.

      I think Broner sucks, so I'm not shocked.

        Not a fight I would touch with a ten foot pole for odds that are near even. I would put Broner as a slight dog, but there are enough worries about both that make that fight not worth it.

        If the odds get to where you can get to like +300 on Broner it might be worth looking at then.

        I can't really see messing with that fight though otherwise (and it probably won't get there). Not that placing a small bet would be wrong but that is not a fight I would look to hit hard because it is inline with the reality of the situation.

          Porter's going to bring back his leaping lefthook against a stand still Broner

              What exactly is Porter without his physicality?

              Probably worse than Broner would be my answer.

                yeah boxing shouldn't be a physical sport. that's unfair to the boxing geniuses with skills.

                    It doesn't matter if it's Porter, Broner or Brook. They all only marginally pass the eye test IMO. Thurman too. Some thumper will put hands on Thurman and I seriously doubt his ability to thump back.

                      I saw those odds too but I think they are about right. They both fought Paulie and wow, what a difference. Porter attacks hard and fast and Broner doesn't respond well to heavy pressure.
