Better win - Brook > Porter or Khan > Alexander

So as usual the Khan fanboys on this forum are making some ridiculous statements. Recently, they've been trying to say that Khan's win over Devon Alexander is better than Kell Brook's win over Shawn Porter. To break it down quickly. In December 2013, the undefeated Porter fought and beat Devon Alexander, then IBF champ, relatively comfortably and even hurting him in the process. He won on all three scorecards. Before facing Brook, Porter's last 5 fights were: Malignaggi KO4 - WIN (IBF defense) Alexander UD - WIN (IBF WIN) Julio Diaz UD - WIN Phil Lo Greco UD - WIN Julio Diaz - SD (DRAW) - After facing Brook, Shawn Porter has won twice, defeating Eric Bone and Adrien Broner. Before facing Khan, Alexander's last 5 fights were: Jesus Soto-Karass UD - WIN Shawn Porter UD - LOSS Lee Purdy TKO7 - WIN (IBF defense) Randall Bailey UD - WIN (IBF WIN) Marcos Maidana - UD WIN - After facing Khan, Alexander has lost to Aaron Martinez. http://en.espn.co.uk/PICTURES/CMS/72200/72221.3.jpg http://cdn-wac.emirates247.com/polopoly_fs/1.573339.1418536865!/image/1087177765.jpg Which is better?

Glad that was shot down. Almost as soon as Khan was shot down by Prescott.

Brooks is more inpressive he fought I hungrier fighter Porter was trying in that fight against Brook all night. You can tell Lex just gave up after awhile. Lex wasn't the same fighter after he lost to Porter.

No surprise here. The Brook/Porter was a close clear win for Brook against a young, live WW opponent It was a good win for Brook, but Alexander and Porter are practically evenly-matched (although they have different styles of course). They fight 5 times, they win 5 each. Khan beat Alexander more impressively than Brook beat (Alexander's equal) Porter. Again, I thought it was still an impressive showing by Brook and in fact the best performance of his career, but it was a much closer fight than Khan vs Alexander.

Khan's win is better. Porter vs Alexander was almost a toss up, so was Brook vs Porter. Close fights which could have gone either way. They fight 10 times, they win 5 each. One judge had Brook vs Porter a draw. Khan shutout Alexander for 12 rounds, the fight was the very definition of a mismatch. So Khan's thoroughly dominating performance against a fighter who was very evenly matched with Porter was a better win than Brook's closely-contested Porter win. No surprise here. The Brook/Porter was a close clear win for Brook against a young, live WW opponent

You made this thread not that long ago, I go to uni full time plus work, why are you stooping so low to score imaginary points? You should make a thread Khan vs Deakin and people will pick Robin by KO, point being you know people hate Khan regardless, so you now hide behind popular opinion. Most people here also count accomplishments post a certain fight ie Clinton Mitchell's legend grows everytime Hopkins achieves something. Speaking of popular opinion, Warren's WW3 card struggled with tickets, yet people fill up Hearn's one sided sh1t fest (Warrington-Brunker had 10 K). So, your circle jerk tactic doesn't mean anything at all. You're entitled to believe as you wish, I respect it, but having a majority opinion doesn't mean you're correct. take your embarrassing Brook / Porter defeat like a man.

On another note, how sh1t does that make Marcos Maidana look? :lol1: Alexander's only wins from his last 10 fights have been Randall Bailey, Jesus Soto-BumAss, Lee fking Purdy and yes.....a shutout victory over Marcos Maidana - another of Khan's best wins.

I'd just have to go with Brooks win over Porter. Porter was much and still is a much fresher fighter. He has more heart than Devon, has size, decent skill, is stronger than Devon, but he lacks speed and agility when compared to Devon. Khan did have a shut out over Devon. Which was pretty impressive. Devon is a fast, sharp, gritty fighter, but he really lacks power. It's really hard to say which is the better win. I think it's kind of pathetic that Brooks best win is Porter and still isn't ready to step up and fight someone at that level again.

Good to see this crazy notion has been shot down bluntly. 5 shameless Khan fans are the only ones not voting for Porter - 3 of them even not shameless enough to vote for their own guy. Surprise. Saving face lads. Why is box office not in this thread? Why are you running like Khan is from Brook?

What did people think was going to happen with Khan-Alexander? Alexander was completely made for Khan. His only chance was landing some kind of once in a lifetime punch like he did against Urango. Otherwise Khan was always going to easily outpoint him. Devon Alexander is one of the biggest duds in recent history. A complete underachiever considering his somewhat natural talent. Shawn Porter is a terrible boxer. Really awful technique. Sloppy as sh1t. Yet he still managed to rag doll Devon like a little child. And then Khan decides to fight that Devon :lol1:

I was impressed with both wins, especially in the fashion that they were won. That said, the Porter win was much better

That's the sort of thing peeps say when they can't actually provide any worthwhile argument. Wrong. That's the sort of things peeps say when they are just laughing at you. :lol1:

Saving face lads. Why is box office not in this thread? Why are you running like Khan is from Brook? I provided an airtight argument as to why Khan's win is superior and nobody will be able to refute it. Khan's win is superior to Brook's win for a number of reasons as previously stated. If you think about it carefully, weigh up all the factors I mentioned, it's not even a debatable point. That's not to say Brook's win against Porter was completely worthless, it was still a good win, even if it was a very close fight. It just doesn't compare to Khan beating a fighter who is evenly-matched with Porter in a far, far superior fashion.

brook vs porter was a sloppy ugly fight with hardly any action from each. Dont remember much action other than hitting and holding tbh. The credit some give to Brook like he dominated is ridiculous. The guy is talented, that is his best win BUT it really could have gone either way. Had to vote Khan. More clean punches and damage to a higher level opponent.

Kell's win over Porter is twice the win of Khan over Alexander! And you are retarded if you think other wise.

Brook out-muscled, outpunched and outboxed Porter. I didn't expect that. Khan beat up Devon, I didn't expect that. But Porter proved head to head, he is a better fighter than Devon.

Porter is a tough fight for anyone - and Brook won a very close decision. As for Alexander - he has declined and did not appear motivated when Khan beat him. People can Hype Khan as much as they like, but he is fading fast. Even Hunter is saying Khan's ego is out of control. Wait for Khan to start blaming other fighters for 'ducking' him or changing his trainer or Ramadan or whatever. The guy just needs to prove himself in the ring, its that simple. Echo park, I agree. Hay dios mio, you put it down to the fullest. I think his next catastrophic loss may be attributed to Ramadan, & Allah Akbar. Allah blessed him with speed, power, and a super-fragilistic-easy-KO-doshiuus chin. Good post. Green to you. :boxing:
