Weaknesses for Each Fighter

Adrien Broner’s weaknesses are evident from looking at the Marcos Maidana fight–he struggles to deal with pressure fighters.
He was caught up in being labelled as the next Floyd Mayweather, employing his style of counter punching and the famous shoulder roll which proved to be his ultimate downfall.
He can’t let Shawn Porter dominate and push him against the ropes because like Maidana as he will be relentless in launching flurries of hellacious shots.
Admittedly, Broner is exceptionally skilful, but he has to know who he is as a fighter and play to those assets if he wants to bleed out all of his potential.

Shawn Porter’s strengths are consequently his weaknesses, and this will be detrimental to his chance of winning.
Kell Brook was able to quell the attacks of Porter who left himself open to counters, and score the effective and more eye-catching shots that led him to capturing world title.
If he believes he can walk in straight lines and land hard shots on Adrien Broner then it will be a disastrous night, with another defeat etched on his record.
