Shawn Porter vs. Kell Brook - Almost Done For August

[wiz1030]

Maybe Scott Quigg vs Santa Cruz? Although I'm sure Hearn would have mentioned that himself.

Last week I read somewhere that Quigg-Santa Cruz is getting lined up for the Mayweather show in September. With Schaefer gone and Floyd not working with Oscar that may throw a wrench in things

What happened to this fight being on the Canelo-Lara card????? I must have missed that

That fell apart a while ago.

Devon/JSK and this were supposed to... negotiations took too long for the fight

kell brook willl get injured in training camp and pull out the fight and fight carson jones for the third time.

[junior gong]

Brook will beat porter.

Calm down skippy, the fight is not signed yet. You are going to look like a fool if they don't sign it.

If it doesn't get signed, it will be because of Porter not Brook.

I really want this fight to see if Brook has the goods or not. It's about damn time, now or never. I liked Brook for awhile but was firced to jump ship when he kept fighting C and D level fighters. I'll be pulling for Brook. The UK needs a fresh face to pop up on the scene around 147.

[Hougigo]

Brook will beat porter.

I'm down to wager on this fight on Porter

[MBE]

Brook will beat porter.

I second this. This fight is only Porters second real test in his whole career.

All the other fights he was supposed to win except Alexander. That was his first challenge, but stylistically it mapped out well for him.

Now this is Porters second time with a live dog, and the first that has the power to hold off his smothering attack that has allowed him to look sensational. I think this fight could end early for either man if Porter tries the malignaggi/Alexander game plan. I don't see it going past 5 rounds.
