Now maybe Porter was weakened lower or higher and has found his niche at 147
It could also be based on the evidence and testimony of others, that he has had a chemical assist.

There is no question that chemistry can enhance both speed and power.

I don't know where you think I did that. Lore, truth, whatever. My point isn't based on whether it's true or not. I simply stated that that is what most boxing fans believe.

"There is no question that chemistry can enhance both speed and power."

Nobody asked that question. The question was whether or not PED's could turn Porter from an average puncher into a puncher so fierce that Paulie, who has faced more than a few big punchers in his day, would say "holy shit, I've never felt power like that".

There's absolutely no evidence that PED's have a large, significant effect on punching power. None.
