    Porter was starting to get a lot of hype. He whipped the **** out of Paulie lol. I think Spencec has a better tool set and a more pedigree. Porter really isn't that great of a fighter, he lacks precision and acumen.

    I knew he was a force to be reckon with once Floyd started buttering up to him so he wouldn't be called out by young Spence.

      Porter was being compared to Mike Tyson and many were picking him to beat Floyd.

          21/21 boxing reporters all picking Porter to destroy Brook.

          Check the Porter vs Alexander & Paulie post fight threads, the hype was through the roof.

            Lol wut. He got nowhere near the hype as spence. Spence has been talked about for years. Nobody really gave a damn about Porter. Hell people said he was on peds cause he kod Paulie.

            He didn't even beat Julio Diaz ffs

                You guys should look back at the threads before the brook fight and have a good laugh, he was getting mad praise. But it was in 2014 and the attention span for some members is till Saturday.

                  theres literally one person who said that porter was like a mini mike tyson (obviously he doesn't know **** about....well, you know the phrase)

                  the rest of the guys were for the most part laughing at him koing paulie.

                    My friend was just making that same analogy. I personally think fans are setting Spence up tobe the new Matthysee.

                      He was. Look at Brook. His stock went astronomically high when he beat Porter in a clinch fest as if he beat Golovkin.
