PORTER WAS ROBBED

SPOILER************************

Actually nah I had Brook nudging it. I like Porter's energy but his tactics were terrible, and Brook exploited the height advantage.

Porter would lead in and get tied up throughout the whole fight. At first he was landing some vicious body shots in the clinch, but he wore himself out as the fight progressed. He threw lots of haymakers that missed, which probably tired him even faster.

Brook on the other hand was very composed and was able to lean on porter much of the time in the clinch, which is what taller fighters should do as it tires out the smller boxer. But it was his jab that won him the fight. It threw off Porter's timing, and messed up his range.

So I have respect for Porter because from what I've seen of him he's a good low-key type of guy. He is physically gifted, and is a bit like a mini tyson.. but he should really consider asking freddie roach to train him. He needs to improve his tactics so that he can land more

as for Brook I think a superbout with khan @ wembley must be done now

I got sucked into another failed scorecard from Jim Watt when in truth the only person that landed was Brook. A deserved win for Brook.

I'm now impervious to Jim Watt and that terrible Halling bloke.

Porter was the messy aggressor till he ran out of gas in the second half of the fight. Brook tagged him with hard, sharp, crisp shots all night.

Great win.

The weird round was the 8th or 9th.

Brook took no shots at all and caught him with 5 or 6 crisp jabs and hooks.

Watt gave it 10-9 to Porter.

Silly old chuff

I don't mind Watt as a pundit.

But when hes commentating on big fights with a British fighter involved he gets far too negative and panics, especially if its a close fight.
