    Who does he face next! Does Khan come calling if there's a belt on the line, obviously 147 is a stacked division full of great fights. Who would you like to see him face.

    Obviously getting ahead of ourselves here I know but purely for debate.

    Either Khan,or Bundu,both in Sheffield. Might have to be Bundu first,as Amir still thinks hell get the Mayweather fight. I hope he doesn't,but in the meantime Kell outpoints Bundu . Then when he realises he won't get the biggie,Amir goes to Bramall Lane. But I don't see Kell winning Saturday.

    I wouldn't like to say really, virtually anyone in the division is a possibility if he beats Porter. Maybe he'd even be included in the Money May sweepstakes. Amir Khan is a fight which I think will happen somewhere along the line even if Brook doesn't beat Porter; it'd still sell a stadium out in England.

    No chance bundu! Would be a great fight but high risk low reward as hes not a big nane and wouldnt make big money. Would be soneone like robert guerrero big name probally easier fight than bundu and then khan after that.

    Hope kell pulls it off next satday

    I wouldn't necessarily see Guerrero as easier than Bundu. If they fought my money would be on Guerrero. While they were waiting for Khan maybe they'd go for an easier fight than either,maybe?

    Although Khan has fought,and in some cases beat,by far the better men,yes,I think it would. But would they want to take the fight? Big money,yes,but would they want a big payday in the US he would probably lose as opposed to a few lesser,but still lucrative,defences in Sheffield?

    Would they want Mayweather,though,which would probably be in the US and which he would almost certainly lose. Or would there be more money in a few,still lucrative,defences in Sheffield? I don't think they are really comfortable with boxing away from home,which,although I see Kell giving a fair account,will be a big factor next Saturday.

    If he can get past Porter, which I think will be the most difficult been away from home, a first world title fight and against a sted head will be the most difficult, I'm not that bothered about Khan whatsoever. I would rather see him fight Timothy Bradley, perhaps 1 or 2 fights in. Bundu would he good for his next fight, but would he get stick for picking a 39 year old Bundu in such a stacked division?

    A little bit of one,but its interesting. Already Kell has been given more chance than Honeyghan against Currie. Stranger things have happened.

    I think he might get a little bit,Tony. But traditionally a Brit world champions first defence is an easy one. And in view of Bundu coming here and beating 2 ten year younger men in their backyard,might not be seen as ridiculously easy. Im sure it wouldn't be. Sure there'd be a bit of mystique about it,and he'd fill any place in Sheffield against Micky Mouse.
    Don't know about you,but Id imagine they wouldn't take Bradley unless they absolutely had to.
