Watch the full discussion below: Two weeks prior to the recently announced cancelation of the bout, Shawn Porter sat down with Fight Hub TV. During the interview, the former welterweight champion gave his analysis of 'The Problem Child' and his team’s decision to pick Hasim Rahman Jr. as their next opponent. Porter stated: “They are picking a fighter that practically just got knocked out. He’s on a higher weight. They are going to ask him, force him, to pull his weight down.” Porter predicted that when the issue came on board, which it did, Paul’s camp would massage this point to cancel the fight. "They’ll make it all Hasim’s fault and will not take the rap for anything. He [Jake Paul] really has a way of doing this. He has kind of covered all the bases."

For that to happen, Rahman would need an adequate gas tank. A big weight cut always compromises a fighter's endurance, hence Rahman Jr. was set to fail from the beginning.
