    Styles make fights, but I’m voting Kell just because he has the best and clearest victory over Porter.

    I never rated Thurman that highly, he was good at what he did but he didn't have an all round game like Brook, so I'd pick Brook to beat him in a competitive fight.

    Let's just put it like this, Prime Brook probably beats Spence and Crawford due to styles.

    I'll go with Brook here because I thought he was a bit underrated in his prime.

    Thurman, fights hungrier, has better stamina down the line.

    This is a fight that should've been made when both were champions. A genuine 50/50 IMO

    Brook was better. Spence’s win over him was special.

    Prime Special K was special. Technically incredible, great chin, could always find the angles to land his punches, and had the power to make it count - I still believe he could have cleaned up WW after the Porter fight and then done some real damage at light middle. Shame that between the Tenerife stabbing and Golovkin lunacy that we didn't get to see much of him at his best.
