    I think Maidana was better he cut off the ring more effectively later on in his career.

    With Porter if you employ a Brook strategy he is easy, otherwise its a tough night [easier said thnan done of course].

    Maidana had that pop though so I will say he was the tougher fighter if he hit you with the right shot it was all over. Few had an easy night with him, even Floyd I would say had a tough night with him.

    Porter has never fought anyone on Floyd's level. Though, I will agree I think Maidana gets destroyed by Spence and Porter arguably drew with Spence last night. I know Maidana was weak to the body and those body shots Porter absorbed were hellacious. As a whole though I think Maidana was the better more accurate fighter. Porter has a lowish accuracy and his punch technique, due to his style is weak and as a result his punches have no mustard on them.

        Maidana got 12-0'd by Devon Alexander. Porter is better.

          op asked head to head

          I'll take Maidana's superior FIREPOWER over Porter's durability if these two were fighting

            Porter. Maidana gasses after 5 and hes slower. He's bigger so that works for him but its not much

                I give a slight edge to Porter for being more consistent. He only has 3 losses and put up a good fight in those losses. The three guys who beat him would probably have also defeated Maidana while I doubt Porter would ever lose to Khan or Alexander.

                  I also think Porter would win a close fight head to head.

                    Two different minded aggressive fighters
                    For Maidana there is an orthodox style
                    Yes he can be relentless and I give him the power
                    But Porter is just fughin weird to figure out , he kind of bull rushes you
                    Very hard to predict and very very tiring for his opponent to gather his thoughts and adjust

                    I think Porter would win a fight with Maidana unless the Argentinian catches him and it’s gotta be picture perfect
