    I really really really want brook to win, to go over there and beat one of America's golden boys would be huge and shut a few people up, am I missing something with porter because after watching his fights im not overly impressed or worried about Brooks chances, yes he beat paulie but I think brook would of done the same ! Don't think he has been tested by real power and kel has that, cant wait should be a awesome fight, American judges are a worry though

    Sorry to break your bubble,but the Special one is in for a Special Beating.Another one of poor Fast Cars fighters bites the dust in the US.

    I don't think Brook will get the beating a lot of people expect, but I can't see him winning the fight either.

    You probably end up dissapointed smithshaun.

    Porter is such a strong Cnut - no real boxing skills a such just bull strength and a good leaping left hook..Brook is by far the better boxer but Porter is the better fighter and on home soil the odds are to far against Kell sadly but I would love to be wrong

    i like how you talk about how porter doens't seem to have anything special.... and how he is untested, etc.... the irony is great in this one

    remind my how kell brook is an elite fighter again?

    porter resume>brok resume

    agree with this.... never said porter is an elite fighter... but not sure how you can say someone has the skills based on him fighting tomato cans

    porter HAS fought better opposition than brook in just his last 2 fights and has proven himself... if anyhting he should be the favourite

    He is... 5/11 Porter vs 2/1 for Mel Brook. And those are from British bookies, so probably wider in the US

    Plenty of flaws in porter, I hope brook has done his homework and can put it into practice otherwise porter gets the home town decision

    i'm talking about among fans, but as you can see from the above posts some think brook takes out porter quite easily... almost as if brook has been fighting top opposition for the last 10 yrs and it's a no-brainer.... when in fact he is an untested fighter having been protected in the UK fighting tomato cans.
