Damn, I just thought about what Kell Brook did!

[REMOVE SHARK 55]

No such thing as underdog when you are the bigger guy. It's ******. KOing Malignaggi doesn't automatically mean you can beat everybody. It's ******.

Fight was total garbage. Porter fought the way he did because he's short. Brook's answer to inside fighting was to clinch and nothing but clinch. I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt and blame it on Porter, 6th round came, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, it's the same clnching defense over and over again with no attempt at fighting without the holding. I'm sure I was not the only one. People in the audience started to leave. They got sick of the clinching.

I'll never know why people appreciate these types of fighters.

Nope, they left before the results were announced because EVERY American inside the stub hub who was a paying fan knew Porter didn't win the fight.

kell brook wasn't the underdog.

also kell brook was 170lbs on fight night according to showtime stats.

Mother ****er, you yourself was calling him the underdog if i remember correctly, trying to tell me to admit i thought he couldnt win, **** you!

I never seen him fight before but my buddy from work picked him to beat Porter. I watched the first round and I was impressed with his boxing style even hurting Porter in the first round. He beat Porter plain and simple.

You should watch the "fight" again -- Brook literally clinched Porter into submission.

[Yogi007]

Brook won a "close" fight against an overrated fighter, and now people make it sound like he beat the crap out of King Kong. lolz

The ref should do something about these types of fights where clinching is excessive. OR not do anything at all. Let them clinch and fight.

In a way, the clincher is being aided by the ref. Porter had two opponents in that fight. Porter should have requested the ref in the Berto vs Guerrero fight. Clinching should have consequences, and not rewarded.

he should have realized by the second round that brook was clinching nonstop as a fight strategy and penalized him if he continued doing it. instead he just kept saying let go and we got a terrible fight. boxing is supposed to be a business and how is it good business to have horrible fights that no one wants to watch. not to mention its against the rules but whatever. andre ward would call it a masterclass.

... In the second round Brook literally kneeled Porter from clinching... It was hilarious that the ref gave them a sign to continue...

Guerrero did what he had to do to neutralize Berto's clinching. Berto got punished for his clinching. The clinching had consequences. Berto was forced to fight an inside fight and he was connecting. It was a very entertaining fight and it was because the ref wasn't interfering too much.

I just don't know how this guy could beat Khan. He should avoid Khan like a plague.
