Comments Thread For: Brook: I'm Ready For Mega-Fight, Mayweather, Thurman

Another American hypejob bites the dust!

Bring on fraud jr!

You picked porter by ko, now hes a hype job??? Jas get real man

[gmc_rfc_06]

Alvarado was huge, easily a welterweight, he's just not very good.

That was his first fight at 147 though. He could still have been operating at 140 and was never particularly strong or a puncher. JMM didn't look out of place physically.

Against Brook you're looking at a guy who comes down from 175 and stands 4-5 inches taller, JMM would look like what he is, a very small WW.

Thurman is the next logical fight for Brook IMO....but I think Marquez is a easier fight for him atm and that's the fight I think they'll make....name value!!

I don't think he'd beat Floyd but I do think he'd beat Thurman, Alexander, Bradley, Rios and any other relevant 147 pounder imo....might even beat Pac at this stage...Brook proved he can fight...he's far from a slouch!!

Thurman please!!!!!!!!!!!

Brook stops Thurman and NSB goes into a tail spin for 24 hours in the aftermath

i changed my pick to porter by decision outworking brook down the stretch, here is a post i made in boxingscene vip forum before the fight:

I watched porter vs Alexander, he's technically not awesome but boy does he have an engine, I also think his power is overrated because fans getting caught up in the paulie stoppage, I myself was basing ko prediction on that.

CARSON, Calif.- Turns out, it was Showtime ... for "The Special One," Kell Brook.

In a minor upset, Britain's Kell Brook (33-0, 22 KOs), of Sheffield, England, won a battle of undefeated welterweights and the IBF world title with a majority 12-round decision over defending champion "Showtime" Shawn Porter (24-1-1, 15 KOs), of Cleveland, Ohio, Saturday on SHOWTIME from StubHub Center in Carson, Calif.

Brook, fighting in his first world championship match and making only his second start in the United States, won by the scores of 117-111, 116-112 and 114-114. There were no knockdowns.

Americans always gotta play the Ricky burns card

Sigh smdh

I'd want to see Brook/Khan next, but Thurman would be the next best option.

[MDPopescu]

Thurman? No... he wouldn't go at the Wembley Stadium to risk his pedigree...

Mayweather? Who knows?... But Floyd wouldn't go to the Wembley either...

Bradley perhaps... But I rather see a Khan fight -- Matchroom's boss Hearn would rather make a home fight I guess...

[MisanthropicNY]

Porter didn't look the same with the random-blood testing...
