    I'm failing to see why matching Devon Alexander is a bad thing?

    This.

    Brook fans now pretending everyone was hyping Porter to the maximum. The reason he was the favorite wasn't because of how dynamite everyone expected his future to be, but because he has looked great in recent form while fighting opponents Brook was never proven to be on the same level as. Now Brook has shown what he is made of a bit more. I doubt most people would pick Porter in an immediate rematch, and that says a lot here.

    People pretending Porter wasn't hyped are utterly delusional. Great win for Brook, have some respect.

    I've seen a fair share of "Brook would murder Mayweather comments", which is far more than necessary since he beat Shawn Porter, who isn't Floyd in any way

    That's funny because I haven't seen a single person say that.

    Don't play dumb, you know very well many people were hailing Porter as the second coming of Mike Tyson. Look at this thread posted a day before the fight, 'Is Shawn Porter unbeatable'?

    One person, cool...

    Have you looked at the responses to that thread?

    Or are you choosing to play dumb yourself?
