    I'm honestly not on a wind up, just curious, but why do you hope Broner wins? Knowing how you feel about Mayweather, I would've thought you would absolutely hate Broner.

If they have a good fight both will be brought back against top guys. If they stink out the joint the loser may need to do a rebuild(if it is Porter, if AB loses he has options still). Unless Spicoli only meant that the loser clearly isn't going to be staying at the elite level, that I agree. As is I think eithers spot is questionable. Broner because of lack of devotion, Porter because of physical limitations.

    Should be a good fight)))
    In reality Khan is one crash test dummy impersonation away from being a trivia question...and he fights Algieri last seen rolling around on the floor like a 5 yr old refusing to go to bed. Who honestly cares about that ? Porter and Broner are not elite, that is the jist of this match. Been established as both have been rebuilding after frankly being schooled...of course you need to rebuild Ron Two flawed but willing skilled guys under same promotion but I don't agree with tomorrow is guaranteed regardless of outcome. Guys who believe and start thinking that are called journeymen. Broner has wasted a lot of time and non effort with weight ballooning and ignoring his craft..and believing he was actually #5 p4p He's also still a sucker for rights when he pulls out. This is a fantastic scrap, promotion wins either way but winning means everything. Loser co mains the next Berto card

    Being a journeyman is okay if you're paid well. I don't think these guys should expect much more. There are probably 15 guys(maybe more)that can beat Broner between 140-147. Getting paid well in that scenario is about all that can be asked.

    Broner is a twat and disrespectful to the craft(which bothers me far more than the rest because I don't care about his personality) but damned if I can't think of fight after fight I'd like to see him in. And while he's had his soft touches I get the vibe if Al says get in the ring with King Kong AB would say yessir.

    Porter actually needs the win to be relevant. I think people want to see Broner win or lose(hoping to see him lose)

    I think Khan can be rebuilt again after another loss, it's happened so fast so many times. Look at Zab, time after time people spoke of "if he is just focused". People see fast hands and elite athleticism and they lose track that boxing is 95% mental. Right now people think he can jump in and out flurrying on Mayweather as if Floyd wouldn't put a stop to that 30 seconds into the fight. Don't underestimate how many times people are willing to be fooled by speed.

    This is a tough fight for Broner, I see Porter mauling him but with the CW and the rehydrate limit makes it a little closer. I see a possibility of Broner squeaking out a close decision but I'll be surprised if he does.

    Honestly, it's a shame that the cynic in me sees this as a surprisingly easy fight for Broner due to the catchweight.

    I mean, I don't see why Porter took the fight at a catchweight. It's not like Broner has never fought at 147 and I'm sure Porter used to fight as a light-middleweight. Just seems like either Porter has been forced into the fight (at given conditions) by Haymon and/ or his guys (to continue making 'good' Haymon fights), or Porter is just a bit of a dummy

    I dunno man, I just feel like Porter has lost the fight before he even started - which like I said, is a shame because this could of been a fun fight and does include two interesting names but yeah, I think this will be about jabs and posturing and will just fall flat.

    Broner's fight to win IMO.
