Big chance for brook to make some serious wedge and waves in the 147 division..perhaps a fight with khan 2015?
Injured or not, he must deliver in this fight.

Thought he won the purse bid? Where is the hype for this fight?

Special Kase has no excuses. He's got the umbilical cord advantage.
Why would Brook avoid Devon by pretending he was injured? He will face Porter and beat him.
Cause devon would have beat him and I don't even like alexander.Quote:

I only heard about this one the other day in passing - when and where ?!?

Dan Rafael tweeted yesterday about how they are moving the fight from 8/9 to a later date if it even happens. Something like " I am told porter vs brook will NOT be on the Brooklyn card on 8/9 will be some other date if at all. "Quote:

Uh huh. They just quietly forget about it and Porter keeps his title?

Brook might mess up his big and only chance..

Brook ain't the one stalling. Golden Boy have confirmed they have a signed contract from his end. Porter has to face him or he'll get stripped.

Golden Boy VP: Porter-Brook Clash is Going To Happen - Boxing News
All the contracts have been signed today according to Eddie Hearn. From Porter's side too. I can understand why Porter's reluctant, when one gets a title at a very competitive weight class they want to fight someone who will generate lots of cash. Brook represents lots of risk whilst not much reward because he's not well known on the other side of the pond.
This is why they have mandatories, Porter has to beat his to get to the gold.Quote:

Brooks loses, he has a small glimmer depending on how bad he loses. Brooks wins, the sky is the limit. If Alexander wins, he is still Alexander and has to prove he can beat everyone else out there...
I've read today quotes from Hearn/Brook that state categorically they have signed and the contract is done and dusted.
Its Porter thats stalling not Brook.
Brooks is scared. :)Quote:

Brook had 2 genuine injuries befor the Alexander fight and the 3rd reason that never happened was Se
Alexander being genuinely injured.
Brook is well over a year behind in his career and has had some shitty luck to be fair.
Porter is being heavily linked as Mayweathers Sept opponent and that is whats turned his head and made him think , cant Blame him at all for that either as its a once in a lifetime payday.
Porter is a killer puncher but Brook has the skills to beat him if he can handle his power but Porters wreckless with it and Brook can expose that if he boxes clever.
Hope this happens as its a cracking fight !
