    Im well excited and pumped for the fight! nearly as much as Froch Groves II. Does anyone know if Porter has ever been down in his Pro career before? or badly rocked and in trouble? Read that hes been knocked out in the Amateurs before, but thats never anything to go by.

    You poor Kell fans-in for another devastating knock out loss to a elite US fighter.When will you ever learn it's a HUGE step up in class?

    i think it's a very hard ask porter is a top top fighter who may expose Kell's defensive weaknesses, I see Kell being stopped

    I am because finally Brook is stepping up.
    He will get bullied and stopped by round 6.
    He will get the Bellew and Cleverly treatment.

    Hmm....I've been bullish about Kell's chances thus far, I think he'll get the knock-out win. It's all about the jab though, can he use it to make Porter behave and keep his distance?
    If Showtime gets in quick and lands a couple of flush hooks, I don't see Kell's sense of self-preservation being able to stop him getting flattened.

    Boxer-puncher vs power-house brawler at the elite level! Got everyone interested!

    I'm a brook fan if not a frustrated fan but I agree with you the step in class is huge but like I said previously none of us really know how much will heart and determination kel has. Who knows maybe he can survive the storm or maybe he gets stopped we shall say.....either way can't wait

    Everyone's going on about Brook's "huge" step-up. Porter's step-up was the same before the Alexander fight, maybe even more.

    Yeah it's a good point every successful fighter in history at some point has had to make that big leap in competition some sink some swim simply as that
