Just off the phone to @GoldenBoyBoxing lawyer who confirmed he has fully executed contracts for the fight & so does the IBF @ShowtimeShawnP
Lots of people have been tweeting Eddie Hearn about it and he's said everything is signed on there end they're just waiting for Golden Boy to confirm. He also said Brook will be fighting for the title no matter what, if Porter pulls out then he has to vacate.
Brook has been across the pond padding an inflated record with all these KO's of tomato cans, yelling for a big pay day, a title shot, then they make him a mandatory defense against Porter after his train wreck of Paulie Mags who Cotto didn't even handle that easy, and now Brook & Co. Are getting cold feet. Just as well sign and get your payday and the fight over with because life isn't getting any easier. You've beaten nobody so you don't deserve Pacquiao or Mayweather. If you're scared of Porter, maybe Thurman or Maidana or Provodnikov sound like 'walk in the park' options to you! LOL. Team Kell Brook are gutless.
Before you complain that Brook isn't deserving, what did Porter do to earn a shot? He's done well after he won but did he **** deserve it.
Porter's dad who made the statement probably hasn't seen Brooks contact signed so what he's saying isn't technically a lie, why would he need to? Golden Boy are handling that. He didn't mention if Porter had signed either.
I think it's probably just part of mind games from Porters camp and the fight will probably happen. I reckon the only way Porter-Brook won't happen is if Porter vacates his title to fight Mayweather or pacquiao. Everyone who's saying **** like Brook's a fraud or saying he's pulling out are ****ing idiots. He had to pull out from the Alexander fight with a broken foot and don't forget Alexander had to pull out with a torn bicep too, no retard is going to go into a fight with a serious injury. If Porter does pull out for a bigger fight then good for him, there's nothing wrong with that. Brook will be fgihting for the IBF title this year whatever Porter does.
