Porter was going to get in Paulie's *** on the inside or outside. Paulie doesn't have the punching power to deter someone as big as Porter from coming in. Porter had a great game plan aslo. He swarmed Paulie at times and at times he sat back. Paulie had no idea what was coming next.
Paulie is no easy task. He's given very very good fighters tough battles with his boxing skills.
Porter ran through him and deserves respect. Paulie didn't have a good game plan though. Needed to stay outside. Dirty boxing isn't really his forte.
I've never seen a boxer with marshmallow hands and a granite chin. Quote the combination Paulie has
Paulie is washed. So is Zab and a host of other dudes that need to retire. Nothing shocking about a young lion beating the breaks off a washed up dude that doesn't know when to quit. Thurman would have beat the breaks off him also which is why Paulie avoided the fight. I do give Porter credit for smashing him though just saying it's not that shocking that he beat the breaks off Paulie imo. Porter started out around 160. Paulie is a natural 140 lber. Porter is younger and more hungry. Paulie is older and just looking to get paid at this point. I'd be shocked if Porter knocked out Bradley, Thurman or someone like that.
Tells you a lot about the type of camp they go they have.
Paulie would have fared better on the outside. Not saying he would've won, but it would have at least lasted longer and provided him a chance to frustrate Porter. Malignaggi doesn't have the strength to dirty box with Porter. He needed to have his dancing shoes on.
I agree but Porter was just going to walk him down anyway. Fight might have lasted a bit longer had he tried to exclusively box on the outside but I doubt Porter was going to oblige him anyway. Porter is just physically way stronger and was going to use that to his advantage just like he did in the Alexander fight. Devon tried to box on the outside and got waxed. Paulie was going to receive the same treatment.
