Porter v Brook - August 9th NYC
Its on.
Re: Porter v Brook - August 9th NYC
About time. Tough fight for Brook though.
Re: Porter v Brook - August 9th NYC
I think Brook will outbox him and land his big shots, can see brook dominating the centre and landing his punishing jab regular, Porter is very small, height wise, a big disadvantage against another puncher.pyenest77 wrote:About time. Tough fight for Brook though.

Porter is by far the physically bigger though. i think he bullies Kell and wears him down late.Anzi wrote:I think Brook will outbox him and land his big shots, can see brook dominating the centre and landing his punishing jab regular, Porter is very small, height wise, a big disadvantage against another puncher.pyenest77 wrote:About time.

Re: Porter v Brook - August 9th NYC
It is a tough one. I would love to see Brook go to the states and turn over a yank. If only they could have got it here, hard to see him winning in the US.

That's how I see it. Great to see it finally happening.Anzi wrote:I think Brook will outbox him and land his big shots, can see brook dominating the centre and landing his punishing jab regular, Porter is very small, height wise, a big disadvantage against another puncher.pyenest77 wrote:About time.

Re: Porter v Brook - August 9th NYC
I can see it going two ways... first way being Brook outboxes him and knocks him out OR Brook outboxes him in the first portion of the fight but doesnt get him out of there and then proceeds to gas badly ala the first Carson Jones fight and loses on a relatively close points decision.
Re: Porter v Brook - August 9th NYC
Shawn Porter is gonna kick Brook's ass. Let's see if the fight actually comes off.

Your second scenario is how I also see it going, if it doesn't go like the first scenariocolumbo wrote:I can see it going two ways... first way being Brook outboxes him and knocks him out OR Brook outboxes him in the first portion of the fight but doesnt get him out of there and then proceeds to gas badly ala the first Carson Jones fight and loses on a relatively close points decision.

Love to fly out but it's an expensive 3 days and it's brook so he can get injured, eddie said this is an under card fight the other day on ifilm maybe hopkins is head lining.
Re: Porter v Brook - August 9th NYC
Cant be. Hopkins hasnt long fought. It takes him 3 months to just recover from a fight these days lolGlass Joe wrote:Love to fly out but it's an expensive 3 days and it's brook so he can he injured, eddie said this is an under card fight the other day on ifilm maybe hopkins is head lining.

Porter looks strong although a bit wild. Brook is a good puncher but with world class timing. Both are there to be hit.
Should be fun!

Won't actually believe it happens until I see them both in the ring on fight night, but if it comes off it should be a good one. Jones has already given the blueprint for beating Brook, Porter is far superior to Jones so expecting him to win fairly comfortably.
Re: Porter v Brook - August 9th NYC
This is the first time Brook will be in with someone who can really hurt him, might bring the best out of him ?

50/50 fight. Just hope it actually happens.
Re: Porter v Brook - August 9th NYC
Have you ever seen Kell Brook fight? It's a winnable fight for both, should be a good match-up, on paper.gilgamesh wrote:Shawn Porter is gonna kick Brook's ass. Let's see if the fight actually comes off.
Re: Porter v Brook - August 9th NYC
Finally I get to see how good (or not) Kell Brook actually is. Can't wait.
Re: Porter v Brook - August 9th NYC
This is brooks last chance. .......if he pulls out hes finished. Hope he turns up and walks the walk.

I'll love it if Kell wins.
Re: Porter v Brook - August 9th NYC
Should be a thrilling spectacle while it lasts but Brook will really have to go some to win this. Porter brings some pretty frightening pressure, the likes of which Brook cannot hope to match.
If Brook hasn't found the punch\punches of his career within 3 rounds then I don't give him much hope.
