    I'm happy the Americans got to see Kell on a big card, he used to get a lot of stick for his level of opposition but I knew he had the potential and picked him to beat Porter but credit to Shawn for not going over because he was getting hit pretty flush at times.

    I hope the Americans start to respect Kell, we British do produce good boxers and not just 'Euro-bums'. I just hope Porter doesn't suddenly get called overrated to diminish Brook's victory.

      You clearly not from the UK. Outside Sheffield Brook is hardly known
      Brook is pretty well known here.

      Not on the level of Carl Froch, but he was already known and now has a world title. Eddie Hearn will know how to spin that into huge popularity.

          No he's not currently.

          Yes potentially his stardom will rise but right now outside Sheffield & boxing fans he's hardly known.

          Today was his first step to become known to the masses

            Do you have a link? I thought it was the other way round with his real dad leaving him very young but I may be wrong.

              That's right.

              Said he has no interest in meeting his biological dad because Terry is who he considers his real dad. There was a full segment on it during the 'Behind The Ropes' thing from last year.

                Are you sure? Cause I read an article stating that terry was his real dad and his mother left him at a young age, and terry does look like him.

                  Positive mate.

                  I'm sure I've still got it on Sky+. There was a full 15 minute part about his relationship with Terry and how he considers him his real dad despite not being his birth dad.

                    Might have been the other way around then, but I bet his real dad is gutted he didn't bring his son up now, but then again he might not have got into boxing if it wasn't for Terry.

                      that's not because he's a bad boxer, but because his accent is so strong that nobody can understand a word. beeebeh.
