    How am I over-rating Kell??? You've just written a statement in total agreement with mine!
    I AM NOT SAYING KELL WOULD WIN!!!!! How many times??? AM saying he could well win with the attributes he has. Massively favouring Porter in what would be a "who lands first bomb-fest" would be naive. THAT is what I'm saying. Hence, a bet on Kell at over 2-1 (which seems likely judging by the people writing Kell off completely on this forum, yourself NOT included) is VALUE.

    Brook has power but that's power against people no where near Porter's level, once he gets in with Porter, he will get stopped easily.

    Kell Brook is 27 years old and has had 32 fights. There are no valid excuses for not fighting Porter if given the chance. If he is not ready now that means he never will be.

    Remember Jeff Lacy? He was coming over to pulverise JC. This time last year Broner was the dogs nuts on here. I for one will look forward to the fight and see what unfolds. People seem to have forgotten that Alexander was injured as well as Brook, nobody ducked anybody, **** happens.

    Kell needs to bo 100% on it though, hope he wins. I always back the Brits it means a better scene over here.

    Brook has better boxing ability and should have the power to keep Porter honest. Porter is crude as hell but so strong with it. Im picking Kell on pts but wouldn't be surprised if he gets ko'd.

    Paulie hasn't got enough pop in his punches to gain respect from certain opponents. Porter was obviously one of these fighters who could walk through Paulie's feather fists.
    Kell has quick accurate and heavy hands. I think he gains porters respect and vice versa.

    I'm a huge brook fan but if kell/Eddie avoid this fight then they will lose a lot of fans

    Well tbh Kelly Brook would probably have a better chance then Kell...at least she could get her legs and bangers out to distract Porter and then try to clock him with something..I don't know.

    Maybe when khan gets ko by collazo brook will fight him instead for a domestic showdown.
    Though i de feel brook will fight porter and who knows. Before the alexander fight porter was nothing special and struggled against diaz as did khan but now porter does look very good. Brook is untested so he will either rise to it and prove himself or not this is his litmus

    Porter drew with Diaz - anybody see the fight? How'd he do? Any extenuating reasons etc?

    Dont get carried away with Porter. That was the worst I have ever seen of Paulie.

    Porter would eat the jab all night against Brook. Also Brook is bigger than Porter by some size.
