He is excellent I just think Porters style wont suit him He is naturally more skillful but I dont think he has the power at world level to keep a guy like porter off him and question his stamina in the latter stages of fights. I think Porter will stop him late.Quote:

Porter stops Brook. I'm not even sure Brook will take the fight ;)
Yeah never been impressed with brook at all, and dam just checked boxrec and he's been a pro for 10 years and the best name on his resume is lovemore ndou ? Carson jones made him thank god we don't live in a world of fifteen rounders anymore. jones is a solid pro but if you're struggling against him that doesnt bode well, I know he rematched and all...hell i wasnt that big on porter but his two past results are infinitely better than anything brook has done, porter mid to late ko if it comes off.
I'm a fan of brook as he has everything, power, skill, defences, speed.
Wish he'd step up, if he had of stepped up a few years back he would be in the mix for a Floyd fight.
Not that that should be a boxers aim but he would be highly ranked like that.
To be honest, I don't follow Brook at all. I'd rather see Porter fight Maidana.
Devon Alexander is nothing like a static punchbag. He hasn't had a spoonfed career like Brook and has won a belt the hard way. He only ever lost to Bradley before he fought Porter and Porter beat him more impressively than Bradley did. If they ever do get in the ring Porter beats Brook like a gong and stops him or sparks him.Quote:

Yea odd post. Paulie is hardly the most static fighter either?Quote:
