So, Shawn Porter vs Kell Brook, Saturday night (early Sunday morning) on Sky Sports 1.
How's this one going to go? It seems like Khan wants the winner, and if it's Kell, Hearn thinks it could be another Froch vs Groves II type fight!

I had really high hopes for Kell but he has wasted the last 3 years and has feigned injury to get out of fights he is capable of winning.
I will be surprised if Kell turns up tomorrow.

Going to risk this one and stay up and watch it live, I haven't really seen Kell box, and the fact he keeps calling Khan out when he's not done anything, I thought I'd see how good he is.

1 good fight, Figueroa vs Estrada, one up and down fight in Porter vs Brook and one dreadful fight in Bika vs Dirrell (younger brother of).
I won't say the results in case people haven't seen it yet, but I had a small double win in the Bika vs Dirrell and Porter vs Brook fights :-p

Credit to Brook in fairness. The guy who scored that 117-111 should never judge another fight. Porter is so limited comes across as a headless chicken most of the time. Looks like Brook v Khan will happen now.

The referee had a shocker allowing Porter to dive in with his head and never warned him once.Kell boxed really well and no doubt landed the better shots god knows how a judge had it 117-111 awful scoring I thought the British judge was the closest with the draw but Kell deserved to nick it.

How bad was that Bika Dirrell fight though?! The ref was pretty bad in that one too, stopping it every 3 seconds!
I thought Porter looked poor, he just buzzed about, didn't really do anything, apart from, like Shane said, just dive in with his head! How come the ref didn't stop the fight to reset when twice Brook was found with his back to Porter, only for Porter to reach round and punch him in the face, I didn't think that was allowed?
I seriously think the Yanks think we have inferior boxers, and don't take us seriously! If they aren't careful we'll dominate every weight (well Hearne will lol), which won't be a bad thing, we might not have 'Vegas', but we have far passionate fans, and we also have big promotors to pay the boxers!
Not sure if it was true, but apparently the biggest purse was £700k last night, could be wrong though!

So some of you didn't rate Brooks, didn't expect him to win and in one case didn't even expect him to turn up, just shows what experts you all are....lol !

Cannot recall you making any predictions for the fight or commenting on Kells career. For a few years I was saying he would be world champion and had high hopes for him but rather than step up he continued to fight bums in his hometown. He had a chance to take on a weak world champion in a fight he could easily win but chose to feign an injury in the hope his promoter could get the rescheduled fight in Sheffield. Kell was excellent on Saturday night and finally stepped up to the plate allbeit against a very limited weak champion who fights crudely. Kell has a long way to go to show he has got real balls like Amir Khan who has never ducked a fight and fought for world titles in the champions back yard and has far better wins on his resume and done it in half the time Brook did.

George Groves back in action at Wembley arena tonight as he fights for the European title and a shot at WBC Champion Anthony Dirrell.
Should be a routine KO win for George as he moves on towards another crack at the world title he is destined to win.

I was watching the Gas. Were you there?

I thought it was a good work out for Groves, he's a very confident guy, and still believe's (and rightly so) that he will be a World Champion, it appears that his next route is Dirrell, which might be a different task altogether, although he got his tactics spot on for De Gale (relative terms).
