    Firstly I like Kell, good attitude can can fight.

    But the upright, chin in the air, Ingle style is just made for a short quick hooker like Porter.

    Also this fight is really Kells first big fight outside of his home town , I thought he looked intimated by the setting where as Porter looked relaxed and took it all in.

    Lastly when Kell has been hit by OK punchers in Senchenko and Jones he has been hurt, Porter is another level of power.

    This is a big statement , but I wouldn't be surprised if this ended quicker than we thought.

    Peace.

    If Porter feints well he could really trouble Kell, but I like Kell to control the fight.

    Im from the UK and even I think Porter is going to win by knockout

    Brook has been tagged by Senchenko and Carson Jones and was very wobbly. If Porter catches him in the middle rounds when he begins to run out of gas he wont be able to tie Porter up because of the way Porter can get on the inside and rough them up. I really like Porters style and the Alexander/Malignaggi fights proves where hes at given Maidana gave Mayweather hell and Broner got a gift vs Paulie.

    Brook can control the action early on but the big question mark is who controls centre ring early because thats where brook can bag in some early 2 or 3 rounds and if this fight goes the distance i can see it being very close if Brook recuperates in the championship rounds

    What about the Alfonzo Gomez fight? Or the Julio Diaz fights? He scrapped by both guys who are completely average.

    Brook may be susceptible to getting caught clean and hurt but is very resilent and durable. Even when hurt he's aware of what's going on and fires back. He kind of reminds me of prime Cotto in that aspect, you can catch him clean and hurt him but he's always there and is looking to get one back at you.
