You are the self proclaimed expert saying KB is going to destroy this kid because you want Brook to win. How in the hell could Spence suddenly look frail at 147 when he is off PED's? To look less frail at 147 he would need bigger muscles. But then he would weigh more than 147 because bigger muscles weigh more. He can't look skinny and frail at 147 off PED's and look bigger and stronger at 147 on PED's. That's impossible.

At the time Porter was coming off a KO W of Paulie (who'd won 6 of his last 7 fights) + Devon (who's only lost to Bradley in his career) meanwhile Brook's best two opponents were within the last 2 years over Vyacheslav Senchenko (who Paulie, probably a pillow puncher in your book, also KO'd a year before which says a lot about his punch resistance) & 2 W's over Carson Jones (of which the first one he greatly struggled in & one could argue he could've lost).
And lets not forget that Porter vs Brook was scored by one judge, a UK judge who scored for Brook in the past, a draw. And there were pundits & fans who felt Porter deserved to have straight out won.

a couple of the names who had it Porter's way
This wasn't a hype job being exposed by a clearly superior fighter.
This was two top ten guys, one with a clearly better resume, that lead people to pick him in a competitive fight that ended up being competitive although proving the pundits wrong in their picks.
This is no conspiracy of US fans & pundits. I'd bet I or someone else could find UK fans & pundits who picked Porter to.
Or A- troll thread.

Although I do acknowledge that UK refs do seem to operate on a thinner line with stopping fights, likely because of how much influence injuries have had in the past in the UK with boxing, so I for sure could see a quick stoppage in a competitive fight, just a outright bad stoppage in a competitive fight or even a early stoppage in a fight that never got to the point of competitive cuz it was stopped so early that could go against Spence so that's likely is how you'd win if you do end up being right.

"I'm ready for a war. And that's what you're going to see -- a war Saturday night. I can see us both maybe hitting the canvas. You're going to be on the edge of your seat from Round 1. He's not going to take a backwards step, and I'm not [either]. All I can say is it's going to be a thriller."
Kell Brook has the wrong game plan... He's going to lose...

Dont know why anyone would pick Porter over Brook!
Brook is the much bigger man,faster hands, stronger guy, better jab, and better boxer!.
No man would fight Porter on the inside unless they're crazy and dumb, the guy is bull strong in the trenches and can deplete your engine when he goes downstairs!
Brook nullified that by timing his rushes and schooling him but he could've tidied up a bit on the clinches and let more combos go!
Clear winner in a close match up, Brook beats him again but of course it won't be easy!
Porter is a beast and gives hell to everyone at 147!
