Exactly this^^^^^^^^^^I'm not ready to board yet. I'm certainly not going to take anything away from the guy -- he's a really good fighter. But I don't know if he's special per se. His performance over Porter was nice but hardly transcendent. And lets face it, Porter proved himself to be completely one dimensional.
Brook is nice but I need to see more than just a win over Shawn Porter before I jump on that train. A lot more.Comment

I watched a few fights of him and I never found him that exciting. IMO he never was quick guy. He isn't sloppy but he is way too static for my taste and on his other fights maybe he didn't rely so much to his jab, but I think it could be because he had mediocre opponents whom he could walk down and he didn't have to use it so often. So I appreciate him and nothing personal, but sorry, for me his style is boring so I'm not and probably never will be on his bandwagon.Comment

Write off a fighter before they prove you wrong, ride them while they are on top, dump into the trash once they lose.
That's what happened to Porter and will happen to Brook if he loses to Khan or whoever else.Comment

It was a good win, he surprised me. I'm never getting on the hype train, but I respect his win, and now that I see what he has at the top level I definitely respect him as a fighter, I won't bash him. I hope he beats Khan and fights Floyd next year.Comment
