Comments Thread For: Robert Garcia Tabs Adrien Broner To Beat Shawn Porter

[Cinci Champ]

the one thing people are forgetting when comes to porter is he never comes in more then 10 pounds more on fight night. i think the catch weight will be a minimal advantage to broner. it does make sense, i would rather he make 144-5 type catch weights then fight at 140 unless hes fighting a big name. We all saw what happened when he went up to 147 and fought a guy who was huge compared to broner in maidana. Obviously broner is never going to get the benefit of the doubt and he did it to himself but i dont mind the catch weight but i been a broner fan before he was even nationally televised cause im from cinci and goto all the small boxing events in town. well see what happens im just worried that porter might be able to catch broner rushing inside with that frazier type hook he throws. well see imo its a very very interesting style match up. I just think broner goes in all business and gets the job done

AB is gonna have to make several adjustments to his game to win this. His defense is shotty. And he's not busy enough offensively to keep Porter off of him. He also doesn't know how to hold when he gets in trouble (a la Kell Brook).

Porter by late KO

porter isn't that skilled broner will win

Maidana is even less skilled than Porter. He didn't seem to have any problem wiping the floor with AB

maidana has a better jab than porter, also probably has more power

Maidana was boxing with Floyd in the center of the ring at times, and holding his own.

Guess u forgot.

Oh God Porter your going to lose because a dumb**** like Robert Garcia say's Broner is going to win

What does 3 or 4 rounds in his first fight against Floyd have to do with anything? He's still less skilled than Porter regardless.

Not to mention he didn't do sh__ for 12 rounds in the rematch

Not a Broner fan, but I think Broner will beat Porter too.

And Maidana in a rematch.

I said in the center of the ring.. You are referring to his corner work in the early rounds. Maybe you should rewatch the first fight. Maidana even hits Floyd with a pull counter. Your assignment is to find out which round.
