Kell Brook vs Lamont Peterson is actually a good fight

[SalimShady1212]

That would be a real good fight. Peterson could give Kell a hard time on the inside if the ref doesn't allow excessive clinching. I'd be 60-40 in favour of Kell though.

Completely agree

I see Peterson as a better version of Carson Jones.

Just rewatched Brook-Porter for the first time since I watched it live and it was the first time I scored it... I had it 114-114. Jim Watt had it 115-113 Porter. The way some of you fanboys make it sound like the fight wasn't close is laughable. Porter's extremely high workrate made a lot of the rounds nip and tuck and they could have gone either way. I can see how either guy could have nicked it. If you saw either guy as dominant then you are either fooling yourself or don't know how to score fights for ****. I'm glad Brook won and I was cheering for him but the fight was far from obvious and the judging was very subjective. Porter threw over a 100 more punches and landed 4 less. I think Kell however would have an easier time in the rematch as Porter is pretty one dimensional.

You can't score and using Jim Watt or punchstats (lol) as your back-up is pretty laughable.

Even Watt admitted he was scoring from the perspective of an American judge. What's your excuse for not knowing **** about boxing?

What does this post have to do with Brook-Peterson?

I'd love to see this fight. I think people always underestimate Peterson. There's a reason only one guy has ever blasted him despite the high level of competition he has fought.

It would be a really good win for Brook if he could blast Peterson, too.

Do you have conversations in your own head? I'm saying how I scored the fight and also the punch stats help emphasis my conclusion of the overall score. Porter's high work rate made the fight very close as not much happened for large periods besides punching in the clinch.

I think it's a mystery how he kept the belt for so long but I don't doubt his ability, he can use a high guard to walk you down or makes you miss with good movement, he's a good boxer who did some 'GOOD' work with Floyd. It'll be interesting to see how Kell does with someone who can box well as he hasn't faced a top boxer (someone slick) yet. Also I just don't see Kell stopping Peterson, Lamont has a lot of dog in him.

I think he walks people down because he is very big at 140, I don't think he can do that against the big guys at 147.

I see Peterson as a very basic fighter; he walks forward with his guard up and tries to work inside. He is far from slick and he's not very skilled either IMO. He's been down a good few times, he's been blasted out by a puncher in 1 round.

To me the Bradley fight showed what Peterson is; Bradley boxed circles around him with complete ease. I see Brook doing exactly the same and hurting him in the process.

Well Peterson beats Rios and it's not Bundu or Heerden.

What does that have to do with Brook-Peterson? Do you remember what this thread is about? Do you just have random conversations with yourself?

Wow this is kinda true

Imo Bradley is only behind Mayweather and Pacquiao in terms of boxing skill, he boxed circles round Alexander and Marquez too. Also wasn't Peterson only stopped once against my boy Matthysse in 3? It was a perfect left hook, not many recovering from that.

Bith I made the thread, I'll smack your ass (Kell voice) if you didn't get the reference it's how Kell tweeted Brandon (even the ass "smacking" bit).

And what the **** is your problem? I'm talking about Brook so I'll talk about his other performances if I want dork. The same way I've mentioned Lamont's performance versus Garcia.
