    Porter’s prob is he not one of the best

    Friendly person but not a PERSONALITY

    And has an ugly style to top it all off

      Head to Head with a Lakers Playoff Game that was also on Free TV on ABC

      I'm sure the final numbers will be Decent but no I don't think anybody expected big number for this Card and Lara card next week will probably be Lower then it goes back up for better fights or when they're not going head to head with far more popular sports

      Boxing is just not a Top Ratings Drawer for any of these Networks and It will probably never been but yeah certain fights and certain fighters will draw better than others and no Porter I wouldn't consider a Draw on his own BUT if you match him up correctly then yeah I think he can be a good Dance Partner...especially for Crawford

        When you're putting Porter in a showcase fight as the main event, you know going in these are the kind of numbers you're getting. He's like Tim Bradley: in a really competitive fight, he's must see TV. But in a showcase? No one is going to watch that.

        Haymon ad Arum are doing the same thing: lock in the long-term contract and proceed to fill the dates with the cheapest garbage they can throw out there.

              Who said Porter was a draw? I mean some on here actually tried to give Porter more credit for the live gate and PPV buys against Spence L-O-L.

              His fight against Ugas did solid ratings, but nothing special. Neither him or LSC are draws.

                i couldn't even sit through porter highlights, let alone the whole fight. crawford beats him up worst than horn and diaz. there's absolutely no way you can bum rush crawford like that with wide sweeping hook and head down in the pocket.

                  Even Broner and Khan are bigger draws than Porter
