It all depends on how Brook handles the bright lights, this is his first main event fight away from home and if he tenses up he loses. If Brook can shake off those cobwebs of inactivity and nerves and not tense up during the fight he has a good shot to out box, but he needs a knockout to win, no way a Haymon fight is going to lose to a non Haymon fighter and foreigner on the scorecards.
I agree. Brook was shook up by Senchenko and Jones, Porter is stronger than both of those guy IMO and has shown a good chin so far in his career.
I don't like when fighters constantly keep their hands low or pull their punches back low and they have a questionable chin on top of that. Porter is going to take advantage of that then smother Brook inside and take away his length. I also think Porter has improved with better competition.
When Porter lands that first overhand right that stuns Brook because his hands are low we will see how tall he is then.

WAR BROOK!!!! I hope he beats the **** out of that fake paper champ. Hopefully, if Brook wins, he doesn't hold the belt hostage from Thurman. I hope he is a true man, if so, he has a new fan!
GO BROOK!!!! Go destroy that sissy!!!!
Daniel Jacobs, Demetrius Andrade, Edwin Rodriguez, Shawn Estrada, and Jonathan Nelson and beat them even though this was in the amatuers. He's also sparred the likes of George Groves and Andre Ward so Kell Brook is not the biggest guy Shawn has faced.
lol at pulling up amateur records :lol1: Didn't he spar Groves when they were like 10 years old?
Don't think the size will phase Porter considering he's fought up at middle and if I were to hazard a guess, he's probably stronger than Brook. But none of that matter will when Kell knocks him out :boxing:

I think brook has a good style for porter. But this is one of those situations where I need to see if he's physical enough to handle porter.
The difference between top level and level below, quote often, is if the guy has the physicality to handle top dogs, well find out tomorrow.
Porter looks small to everyone but he covers distance fast. He has fought way bigger fighters than Ezekiel and will drag him into the deep waters and drown.
