    Just because you were a champion doesn't mean that you cannot eventually be a gate keeper. However, I wasn't saying that to be disrespectful. Porter is a good opponent, but he is one-dimensional and the 147 division is loaded with talent. He's on the outskirts of that, making him a gate keeper for that division. The term has a negative connotation, but that's not the way I'm intending it to come off. He is a good win to determine if you are on the top side of the division or not. He brings it though and I don't mind seeing him in more fights against the top of the division.

        Bad luck? He's gotten the best fights out of all the PBC welterweights.

          The broner fight at a catchweight was used as a disadvantage. Also the weight cap they took off last minute since broner himself also blows up on fight night. But i meant in terms of inactivity

            It wasn't a disadvantage. It was two guys from two weight classes meeting in the middle. That's the point of a catchweight. And as you can see it didn't affect Porter at all
