117-111 isnt that bad of a score card. Neither is 114-114. The fight was pretty close but Brook definitely landed the cleaner punches throughout.

Porter won rounds 4,6, 10, and possibly 12. Brook won all the rest.

Paris best stay in UK, this bout was far from a draw...he's known 4 more than several controversial calls over there...IMO DeLuca's score card was most accurate...

I had Porter winning by two rounds! That 117-111 score was appealing, Max De Luca needs to be thrown out of boxing

Max De Luca...disgrace his card! Anyway two judges gave the first round to BROOK,damn we are watching horrible decisions in 2014!
Would have to watch it back but Brook did land the best punch of the round and clearly hurt Porter and had him wobble back to his corner, he may well of stole that round.
