JakeNDaBox asking Shawn Porter about weight issues

[PACnPBFsuck]

So i'm listening to this media call interview, and Porter starts talking about a rehydration clause and the weight at 144.

Go to 40:00 mark

An example of what Porter is talking about @1:47:


By not discussing it, Broner can pretend like it doesn't exist and that he's actually fighting Porter at his best.

[RetroSpeed05]

They made it 144 thinking Porter wouldn't take the fight, they never wanted to fight Porter, all this talk Broner saying Khan, Lucas,Chino don't want to fight him is all for the cameras, it bull****.

Do you know what weight Porter used to fight at in the amateurs? Big deal? Yes, it is a big deal. 3lbs is a lot.

Apparently it is a big deal or Broner would not have asked for the difference to begin with.

Well then porter should have turned down the fight. Fight shouldn't have been made imo. The two fighters are just in totally different places weight wise.

How the hell is Porter gonna even make 154 rehydration, dude goes into 160 easily when he fights at 147.

I agree with this, I don't have to many problems with the catchweight but this rehydration clause is not a good thing, u already brought the man down 3 lbs, let him at least rehydrate to the weight he normaly rehydrates to, the only way Porter is going to make the 144 and then only rehydrate to 154 is by losing muscle mass and I hope they already worked on that in camp, if Porter is weighing anything above 148 right now he's not gonna win this fight.
