    So true Bro.

      I gotta admit, I hadn't seen enough of these two to know for sure who wins so I'd rather wait until the fight itself to see what happens.

      Nah, it should be Keith Thurman.

        I think Kell has a great jab. That thing is destructive. But everything else seems a little one paced.

        But nobody can be that confident in him.

        By and large his record is a throwback to the early noughties Sky Sports days when everyone seemed to have these grotesque unbeaten records.

        I wouldn't bet a penny on this fight. It should be fun though.

          Yeah 1 trillion, I'm not overly confident on it.

            It’s true, his unbeaten record is empty. It’s all about money & ego now. Nobody wants to fight a potentially dangerous guy without a name in the US. That’s why he’s had to wait until he was mandatory. Porter’s unbeaten resume is also weak.

            Kell’s ring rust and the size of the occasion will benefit Porter, but in terms of skill/power/speed it’s an even fight. It’s always worth betting on a fight with ****** odds.

                Porter, who meets Kell Brook at Stub Hub Center Aug. 16, is managed by Al Haymon and promoted by Golden Boy. Since Richard Schaefer left Golden Boy, there is hope that boxing will see more of "interleague play," so to speak.

                New flash Porter: You don't need to have something special about you to be a good fighter, there is nothing special about Cotto either but he does everything so well by textbook that he is a great fighter as a whole.

                  I really doubt that would be the result. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that if Brook wins by TKO, it would be the upset of the year.

                    So if Brooks wins by TKO and Maidana beats Floyd by decision, and Algieri stops Manny, you would say the upset of the year is Brook stopping Porter? Come here and let me put the back of my hand across your face.
