    I've grown to enjoy watching Broner in fights. Had this fight been at 147, however, I would pick Porter, but the catch weight makes me less sure. Even with the catch weight though, it's one of the better PBC fights that has been made. Porter needs the win to stay relevant. Same for Broner.

    A focused Broner is gonna pick Porter apart in the 2nd half of the fight. After the 6th, Porter is going to turn into a one-dimensional brawler in desperation.

    At first, this fight looked fairly even on paper, but Broner has some glaring advantages, especially if you put personal biases aside.

    Broner seems like a complete tool, but he showed some heart in the Maidana beatdown. I think he's a lot tougher than some people think. I think Porter may get to him, though. Either way it should be fairly interesting to watch.

    Porter got out boxed by Brook I don't see why a focused Adrian Broner wouldn't be able too. It depends which version of the guy shows up. If the Broner that fought Maidana shows up Porter beats him. But I'd the Broner that easily out boxed Molina shows up Broner picks him apart. Porter needs to fight like he did in the Alexander fight. I think it's a 50/50 fight. But I'll go with Broner.

    The catchweight bs and 155 same night max is a huge detriment to Porter. He relies on that bullish strength and that's why its there. He will be lucky not to resemble a drawn out Geale but that's where the comparison ends. Broner is a sucker for right hands and in the process of altering his style. If he sticks with that horse-shoe wiiide stance on flat feet trying to pot shot I think Porter can beat him up. He did show a nice jab AND a mobile backfoot..finally... with Molina though in reality Molina threw very little and moved like he was wearing concrete trunks. Its a damn good fight but the unnecessary catchweight again adds an asterisk for me personally. Broner looks like a blinged out giant potato in between fights and its comical for a guy who has failed weight before and literally told network execs 'I don't give a fuck if your show is canceled' to be given a crutch like this.

    You prepare for the rehydration clause by properly managing your weight. Floyd doesn't blow up and Guerrero only gained 5 for the Thurman fight. And if you don't like the terms of the contract, don't take the fight. If you get railroaded on the terms of the deal, blame your manager.

    I was talking about this fight this morning and I said I fancy Broner to win if he can keep it to a boxing match, I'm not 100% about it though, it could go either way but I would be slightly favouring Broner

    Broner to be brutalized and may quit on his stool by the 10th.

    I think the rehydration clause is a pile of crap. How is a fighter even supposed to prepare for that, and what happens if Porter is over 155 fight night, it's off? Assuming he handles it, I think it's an even fight, but that's a big ask as it seems like a clear handicap.

    Wouldn't it be a riot if Broner came in heavy

    I originally thought Porter but the weight won't help him any.

    Has the potential to be an exciting fight. I think Broner wins.

    If porter rushes him he can win.

    If there was no catch weight involved, i don't see it being too different from Maidana - Broner, but i think Porter will be hit pretty bad with the weight and will probably run out of steam and ideas before losing on points. I hope Porter steams him though.

    Broner on points in an interesting fight. I would be happy if Porter knocks him out though.

    Adrian " I'm one of the biggest names in boxing" Broner. Be a real shame if Porter puts fatty on his arse. Be an even bigger shame if he got knocked spark out.

    Easy to think Porter is a bit limited and over rated after losing to Brook but Kell worked bloody hard for that and was clever with it. Broner might end up being lucky to escape early with a knockout. I think Porter may well do a number on him. RSF at some point midway.
