    It's not his first time. He fought Luis Galarza in Atlantic City a few years ago.

    this fight will prove a lot. if porter knocks out brook it proves he can knock out a talented natural welterweight, if brook can handle porters power and manage to win it will prove he is the real deal.

    What's going to suck is regardless of the outcome, we're going to hear a bunch of nationalist.

    Fancy Porter about 70/30 fight in my book seen as Brook has done nothing and we have no idea how could he can be, the fight being in America would also expect Porter would get the verdict in a close fight. Hopefully the fight comes off Porter is a strong favorite but i'd like Kell to pull it off very tough ask for him though.

    Funny you'd think it was Porter who had faced the weaker opponents reading this. That "quit job" dominated Maidana and that "shot 140 guy" beat the best win on Brook's resume in more impressive fasion.

    Porter is all wrong for Brook in my opinion.

    Porter is massively overrated (by yanks) and Brook is massively underrated (by yanks).

    I don'y even think this will be close. Porter has never faced anyone with Brook's power, he won't know how to cope. Brook wins by KO.

    We're simply superior to America in every weight class these days. Can't think of too many weight classes where America have the better boxers out of our two nations.

    Actually can't think of any.

    Our Monster Truck skillz still suck though, so you still got that.
