And people were saying throw Porter in with Mayweather Porter would have gotten Hatton'd with his wild leap-in shots. What's funny is that Thurman is even less tested than Porter. Can we we at least see these guys get tested before we start anointing them as new p4p kings?
Thurman is totally less tested than Porter and yet is arguably more celebrated on here than Porter was.
Come on laced. If you complained about ward, same thing here. That's type problem with petty crap, it comes back on you.
Brook won and looked good. Just as ward did. Let's not ruin it like you guys have tried to do with ward.
I still think there's a clear difference.
Ward clinches every fight - It's the first time i've ever seen Brook do it. Brook was faced with Porter, a guy who literally runs into you - Ward faces guys who wants to box him, but he wants to clinch.
Also, Brook doesn't headbutt and stuff like that which Ward has done.
I've never said it wasn't the smart thing to do either, against someone like Porter it's brilliant. But Brook is not a spoiler. Ward is.

The reason you see a difference is only because you see Brook is from England.
This is the kind of stuff that makes NSB *****ty at times. You guys spent so much energy trying to mitigate ward's dominance that you have to ridiculously try and differentiate between him and Brook.

Stop the hypocrisy.
Mate, you better start taking those glasses off.
I was the first to criticize Khan after he held constantly against Collazo. And I don't really have a problem with clinching when it's done as a form of defence when someone is rushing you like Porter did.
What I do have a problem with is when it's done as a type of spoiling tactics like Bhop/Klitschko eqsque, when it's just pathetic.
Ward has done some shyt in his fights, like against Kessler which was truly disgusting to watch, because he didn't even want to box. The same cannot be said for Brook yesterday. Porter went in head first.
However, Ward boxed perfectly fine against Froch & Dawson for instance. I mostly don't have problems with his style, it's not interesting to watch, but I don't have a problem with it.
I do have a problem with the way he approached the Kessler fight.
