    Stylistic nightmare for brook I would think. Porter is a much better, much stronger, more accurate version of Carson jones. Hope brook does it though :happy

    This.

    Hope Kell wins as it would be good for British boxing and hopefully it may entic the twitter king to fight him.

    If Porter wins boxing is still a winner as he is a young buck with great potential who's in good fights.

    I'll only believe it when Kell is in the ring with Porter.

    Kell has been a letdown so far. I'm not getting my hopes up...

    Hold your horses the fight is two months away so plenty of time for Kell to get a fake injury and try to get the rescheduled bout in Sheffield.

    FairPlay to Eddie for getting his arse in gear and making this happen

    Hope kell is not too ring rusty!

    Cant see him being too ring rusty hes fought Jones Senchenko and that roadsweeper in the last 12 months.

    I really hope Kell pulls this off and Amir is forced to fight him
