People actually think this fight won't get made. It baffles me.
If Porter doesn't fight Brook, he will be stripped of his title. Not happening.
Do people actually think Brook won't fight Porter? Obviously he will they've been lobbying since the day Porter won the belt that they want that fight as soon as the mandatory is ordered.
The fight is 100% going to be signed.

There is a interview put on youtube recently, where porter is driving in his car saying he is excited about the brook fight, and also he is excited that the fight will go to purse bids, as he gets 75% of the purse. He also said he has no problem coming to the UK. So it looks like it'll be purse bids between golden boy and Eddie hearn, the winner will probably choose where it takes place. Golden Boy might only have a certain amount of dosh they are prepared to spend on porter as they have a lot of top foghters, Porter not being the big draw in their stable. Where as in Eddie Hearn's group of fighters, Brook is the most important fighter after Froch, i think there is a decent chance Hearn will out bid GB and it will be over here, truth is both Golden Boy and Porter all know the fight is bigger money here. Due to the sky tv dealhearn has, and the fact that they will sell out an arena in the uk, rather than just have an undercard fight, as someone else said on here. I really hope this happens as well. Should be a really good fight.
