Agree. Landed the cleaner shots, Porter would steam in wild and Kell would just hold him while Porter threw scrappy shots. Also think people don't realise just how strong Brook is for a WW, when Porter would jump in Kell would just tie him up, Porter would try & move him & Kell wasn't budging. Very strong at the weight.
Kell landed MORE shots than Porter? Wtf are you on about? :rofl :rofl Kell landed 36% of punches thrown...maybe that's what's confused you?
Kell has just took out the heir to mayweathers throne pretty convincingly. Amir at wembley then a unification against mayweather on the cards in next 18 months, brooks in game strength is his timing and hes also gonna time a fight with mayweather too.
Porter is horrible, IMO. Just rushes forward with no method to his madness. Great engine and power, but he's horrible to watch. Fair play Kell! I was over the moon when he won it.
I've always liked him, I got frustrated that he hadn't stepped up, I thought last night might have been two years too late for him and he showed me that I know hardly anything about boxing. Well done Kell.
See the thread he started about Brook-Gavin where our "guru" claims he's spotted Kell's mental weakness. atsch
Both were poor IMO, but Porter was absolutely clueless, Brook looked like someone who was about to get taken too the electric chair, same old straight left (that missed) then right hand, then clinch, Porter...whatever boxing brain he had must have evaporated on the way to the ring, just total rubbish, rushing in head first swinging his arms around like a gorilla, clueless, meant to be a world title fight, just shows you the dilution of the sport. Book did fcuk all & Porter did even less, I thought Porter was going to get the nod, but in fairness Brook, he did land the only decent punches in the fight & the result was the correct one, the yank judges got it right for a change, Brook out boxed Porter, but lets not get carried away with Brook, he's no Lloyd Honeyghan & Porter is def no Don Curry. Different levels here, Brook for me is not on the A-List & never will be! Just another titleist who'll have 3/4 defences against can's, I was not impressed, being an Englishman I'm pleased he won....but.....Nah, he ain't the next coming of the messiah.
You ain't ever gonna please all the people. You try looking good against someone who swings and windmills like porter did. You have to respect his power. Brook did exactly what he needed to do to come away as the champion of the world
