    He couldn't show any adjustment because Brook didn't allow him to.

    Yeah because Brook kept holding him too for most of the fight, I guess both fights showed their limits, but Kell landed the cleaner punches when Porter was jumping in.

    As I said Kell did what he had to do... And to that credit to him..

    Wtf, I can't see Algieri beating any of them. Non of them are Provo dimensionally inept. They all can fight more than one caveman way.

    Algieri beating any real top ww lmfao kid

    He prepared very well for Porter's style that's why he was able to confuse and frustrate Porter. It's still a close fight nevertheless.

    Deffo and I think Porter over looked or underestimated Brook a bit..

    Yes was a close fight.

    Porter fough amazing fight,was really suprised that Porter survived full 12 rounds.

    Special One was taking it easy against Porter.

    I will give full credit to Porter.amazing fighter.proved that he is not only hype,too bad he competes in same era with Special One

    :lol:

    Its funny hearing from all the porter fanboys who went hard on his dick prior to this fight, coming up with pathetic excuses as to why he disgraced himself against brook.

    ''Brook made him fight like ****''

    ''Porter was in the wrong era''

    So what era of boxing did it allow for fighters to do rabbit punches, take peds and generally disobey the rules set forth?

    As from Porters previous fights before Alexander and Paulie when the hype started, I've never saw an elite fighter in this guy, he has average power and employs the high energy, rough, brawling, out hustle you type of style, he has no real skill...

    Kell does actually possess some skill and above average power, he did clinch far too much for my liking, however he landed the cleaner punches although he wasn't consistent with his offense, with Kells clean harder punches and Porters work rate but mostly ineffective punches the fight was close early but Shawn became more and more ineffective, I gave it to Kell 7-5 in a fight where neither fighter looked that good...

    Porter isn't a bum and didn't fight like one either. I don't understand why everyone is suddenly a bum when they lose. Brook was just the better fighter and had the better game plan, Porter couldn't adjust. And because of Brook's size, style, and skill level, it was an uphill battle.

    :lol: at the people trying to save some face and saying this was a close fight. This was not close at all. Brook outclassed Porter completely. One looked like the champ and the other looked like his sparring partner. I had a near washout for Brook on my card at 10-2. It was really hard to find rounds to give to Porter. He was just rushing in and trying to flurry, landing barely anything at all. It was like amateur hour in there with Porter.

    I had 118-110 for Brook also, not close at all.
