Adrian Broner vs Shawn Porter set for June 20th

This will be a GREAT fight! I think Porter will be too physical and active for Broner, but I honestly feel like Adrian is tougher than he gets credit for. Maidana kicked his ass most of the fight but from what I remember, Maidana was gassed and holding on to just last the distance towards the end of that fight.

I like Porter more and hope he wins but he didn't seem to handle Brooks' speed and punches that well so I see Broner as a legitimate threat to win. Paulie had no power to worry about, so part of me thinks Porter may be slightly overrated (and Broner can hit MUCH harder than Paulie, even at 147). Either way, I'm looking forward to this fight and think it is a "can't miss" scenario for the fans.

I feel like people are over rating porter or underrating broner. I'm not necessarily saying that broner wins but he is tough and is still very quick and talented. He just doesn't have much of a punch at 147. Porter has a punch but seems to rely more on his athleticism rather than skill. I think that broner slows porter down a lot.
