Shawn Porter vs Saul Alvarez

(Well... They one thing I can say about the name Hatton is they are all heart.)

It would be nice to see How Alvarez would do against a skilled prospect with some weight and snap behind their punch. I think Shawn Porter could take advantage of Alvarez's unrefined boxing skills.

Alvarez will have problems with fast hands. Maybe down the road but think Alvarez could be too physical/strong for him.

great call on this one, I've seen Porter a couple of times and he has pretty quick hand from what I remember

At this point I think Porter pretty comfortably. Porter is not really that small of a guy he is just short. So to make up for it in the long run he worked his way down to welter. He fought at 165 most of his amateur career. He can handle the sheer size of the bigger guys its just the height problem he would have at middleweight and Alvarez does not have that height factor. I'm not going to be too critical on Alvarez because he is only 20 but I think we all see some glaring flaws at this point.

Thought Porter had gone down to Welterweight. We had him on the radio show and he said the longer term plan was to work his way down to that. Maybe he changed his mind, gotta check that one....
