    Not priced it up but I imagine flights aren't gonna be cheap this time of year to West Coast would be a quality trip though

    I can't imagine anyone taking the risk if you weren't planning a added vacation to it.

    I think there's a pretty big chance the fight will not happen, and an even bigger chance that the special kid loses the fight if it does.

    6 weeks is a long time for Kell to pull out and demand the postponed fight be in Sheffield.

    Hope this does go through but something just tells me it'll be called off. In terms of the fight itself it's a hard ask for Brook and a massive step up, but at least we'll finally get the answers regarding his level after years of treading water.

    Eddie hearn who's not done a lot wrong so far...would be making a massive mistake sending brook out there. Needs to get brook fights that will prepare him for a porter fight. It's allright talking about how many eliminators does he need...the bottom line is brooks not ready for it. And yet out of the hearns roster outwith froch brook has the best chance of achieving something. If he fights porter you can pretty much right his career off...with guys like brook you dont need to send him out there with a one punch in hell chance. Get him the right fights eddie...still needing some learning fights. Cant help but think eddie knows that brooks wont go much further due to lack of discipline or whatever....brook quite a complicated character. Very good fighter all the same....never ready for porter away from home tho.

    Whats most exciting about this match-up is that no one has a clue who will win.... its wide open. Fans of either boxer can make a case for their own man winning.

    One way or the other we will all get our answer whenn the winners hand is raised.

    Listen if he's not ready this far into his career he'll never be ready. Time to step up and take an overdue test.

    As far as I know the neutral fans have Porter as a clear favorite. I guess it's about 70/30 at this point.

    And more importantly, for the first time in his 10 year career, a good fighter.
