Comments Thread For: Porter Hopes Knocking Off Kell Brook Brings Mayweather

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

IBF welterweight champion Shawn Porter (24-0-1, 15KOs) and his upcoming opponent Kell Brook (32-0, 22KOs) share the same outlook on their fight - they see it as a gateway to bigger opportunities. They will fight on August 16th from the StubHub Center in Carson, California.

Brook is more inclined to target Amir Khan if he captures the title from Porter. The champion would like to secure a unification, against WBC/WBA champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. (46-0, 26KOs), who first has a rematch with Marcos Maidana on September 13th.

He need not worry about floyd, he needs to worry about thurman!! Get past brook and fight thurman. Thats how you get the big fights....

Naturally no.2 P4P Kell Brook is the gatekeeper to Mayweather

I'd like to see Porter get pass Brook, Thurman or Khan before stepping in the ring with Floyd "Money" Mayweather Jr.

Shawn Porter has 9k twitter followers and his account ain't even verified! i like the kid a lot but idk if he'll be able to reach the needed popularity to fight Floyd by 2015, i think his best chance is of course beating Brook aug 16 and then a big name like Amir Khan or Marquez, keith thurman aint going to do the trick.

Shawn Porter doesn't bring a country, a coast, or a fan base to even be thought as an opponent for Mayweather. All that little mofo brings is his dad, his teeth, and excuses as to why they shouldn't face "One Time" Keith Thurman.

You get 5 mins of national broadcast on the air with Brian Kenny and these guys can't think to say if I beat Keith Thurman will you guys get me a Mayweather fight? I cringe when I hear this idiot say I let my dad and team handle everything... Yell he'll be broke and begging for a Canelo fight next.
