    Another clown who doesn't realise that the fight looked like it did because of Porters bum rush style. Brook's style is usually appealing.

    I don't remember anyone ever hyping Porter as the next best fighter in the division. Most people were picking guys like Keith Thurman, and even Danny Garcia to beat him.

    As for Porter... Well, you know how Brits are...

    When Andre Dirrell holds Froch excessively, it's the worst thing ever, Dirrell is a ***** etc

    When Brooks does it, it's okay...

    That's how it's always been

    Froch wasn't sending his forehead into Dirrell's face.

    Brook held because Porter was using his head as a weapon.

    The fight was only boring coz of Porters rough-house tactics and Brook was forced to hold to stop Porter's bull**** head butts. Stick him against another boxer and he will be much more entertaining.

    And he would **** Alexander up so I certainly wouldn't compare Brook to him of all people.

    I think Khan beats brooks. Styles makes fights. He did great against Porter though, didnt think he'd handle Porter's pressure that well.

    I don't see anybody hyping Brook as the best in the division. I'm not sure most people were picking Thurman and Garcia over him. I think opinions were quite evenly split.
