    No More Rehydration Limit For Broner-Porter

    Well I do feel this is the right decision, Broner has already been given an advantage with the catchweight and many think he won't make 144. Reminder that the 10lb rehydration limit was only for Porter however I suspect Broner is struggling to make 144 so has given that up. Broner rehydrated to around 158 in recent fights so that clause would be impossible for him. Porter looks as lean as the Hulk and apparently has a few more pounds to lose...
    Broner WILL still win a UD though.

    So basically Broner knows he won't be able to make the hydration limit he set

        Well broner has never rehydrated close to 160 so I doubt that's the issue.

          Porter still won't be the same, he's been preparing to make the rehydration limit his whole camp. Broner probably hasn't he looked bigger than Porter from what i've seen. If i was Porter i'd still want the clause.

            Porter probably was unable to make weight, but so much has happened in the past few days that the fight must go on.

              I don't think porter had a chance in hell of making thar rehydration limit. He came in at over 160 last time out.

                    I too hope Porter wins.

                    There should have been no catch weight in the first place. It was weak of Broner to demand it, and now it's coming back to haunt him - he's apparently having trouble making weight!

                    What goes around comes around.
