Is Shawn Porter on something?

Look I don't want to take any credit away from him, I was extremely impressed with his last fight but where has this power come from?

He was a decent puncher at best struggling with Alfonso Gomez and going life and death with Julio Diaz in a close fight many think he lost. Next thing you know he obliterates Paulie Mallignaggi in a way that has never been done before.

He looked like a breed between prime Mike Tyson and Shane Mosley lol. I guess it's innocent until proven guilty so full credit to him. Watching this interview with Paulie is what made me suspicious, he didn't actually say it but he was alluding to it:

    He might be on something but we don't have evidence. I would wait until he fail a drug test before we start accusing him.

    Although, his power seem a little suspicious.

    BQ: I think Porter will stop brook by round 9. He will cut off the ring and make it a dog fight. It will be end badly if Brook doesn't earn his respect.

    I really hope not because I like Porter. Malignaggi was his first defence of the championship so I expected a statement of intent, he's world champion and not going anywhere, and that's what we got from him.

    Malignaggi was doing some dirty hinting in that interview but he was gracious when he climbed off the floor, hugging the champ and telling him what a great job he did and how far he is going to go in the sport.

    Porter puts in the work and has good genetics, I don't think he's a cheat.

    It's amazing once a fighter became successful also become a suspect of some wrong doing while a fighter who turned in positive on blood test being praised and adored. Crazy people.

    Paulie suspect every fighter who beat him fair and square. Any fighter who catches punches with their face like Paulie will get knock out sooner or later in the fight.

    Paula always has an excuse every time someone hands him hisAss. I haven't seen any evidence of foul play on Porter's part. I haven't seen any evidence on any of the other fighters Paula accused of foul play after taking an AssWhuppin.

    .

    Paula is just a typical, full of himself, gaudy dressed mirror kisser. In 39 fights, he has SEVEN knockouts. My seven year old niece can hit harder.

    .

    Paula is a slick boxer, runner, who isn't very easy to hit, especially for a guy with ordinary skills like Porter. I think Porter fought Paula in the best way he could. He jumped on him and kept him hurt and defensive. If he tried to outbox Paula, he might have lost.

    .

    Paula should hang up his gloves. He's running out of excuses. I can think of better commentators so he should take his gift job and hang up the gloves.

    I doubt it. His first fight was at 165 pounds then he gradually made his way down. It would make sense that he can hurt guys. He's just naturally bigger than most welterweights.

    In every fight that I have seen Porter, he uS shown power and volume punching, ask Drvon Alexander. He reminds me of a younger Pacquiao, slightly more thoughtful. He was a Pacquiao sparring partner. Innocent til proven guilty...just like Pacquiao.

    Innocent until proven guilty.
