    ******ed comparison. Expect nothing less from you though.

      Good to see Kell at a good weight, it's the eye I'm worried about though, if that holds up, this is going to be a seriously competitive fight.

      If Kell wins this he's a top 10 P4P fighter, but I think the task at hand is too big. Spence is for real, the eye test tells me he's probably the best welterweight H2H, but of course he has to prove it, he's not even top 5 on paper, if we're going by the book - based on who you've beat, what you've achieved etc.

      Either way, this is one of the best match-ups of the year and the amount of question marks surrounding each guy (Brook's health, Spence's first real test etc) makes it even more intriguing.

      This fight is a week after Crawford vs Diaz, which is being overlooked and also one of the best match-ups of the year. Lots to look forward to this month.

          Pure choice to use Chris Byrd more the case of Meldrick Taylor fighting Norris and then going back to Welterweight

            Every case is different, so you can't say that because fighter A did this or that without problems, then fighter B can do it too.

            What worries me about Kell going back to 147 after fighting at 160 is that his own team advised him not to do it and told him it was time to leave the WW division for good.

                Well a win over Porter and a good show vs. GGG is enough for me to think that he is really good. But I really hope that Spence is too.

                    If Spence wins, expect a well done from me. If Brook wins expect "he's on PEDs" from the so called boxing fans on here who only like Americans.

                      He's a natural 154lber, those last 7 lbs will be the one that will take it out of him.
