Porter vs. Berto

Tonight @ 9:30pm on Showtime:

Shawn “Showtime” Porter takes on André Berto for Welterweight title elimination…
Winner of this bout becomes #1 in line to challenge unified Welterweight Champion, Keith Thurman…
These two big league fighters are both former champs in this division…
This one is not to be missed, as it will be the best free fight of the year…
Amazing that it is not a PPV event, probably due to Luis Ortiz falling off the card…
I will go out of my way to say that this will be a true fight of the year candidate…
I expect Porter to stay outside & use his superior boxing skills while Berto tries to cut off the ring…
Porter will attempt to find some big inside shots to end it early & make a statement…
He just needs to stay away from that unbelievable uppercut of Berto that KO’ed former champ Victor Ortiz last year…
I’d put my money on Porter to win by decision after throwing & landing at a quicker pace & with more accuracy…
Looking forward to see how they both look after they have each had very long layoffs…
In the co-main event, Houston, Texas native Jermell Charlo looks to defend his new WBC Jr. Middleweight Belt…
Undefeated in 28 professional fights, this half of the Charlo twins will be facing Charles Hatley (26-1-1) of Dallas, Texas…
Make no mistake, although a great technical boxer, this Charlo can brawl…
Tune in tonight to see these fighters put it all on the line.
