Mofo2 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Kell Brook believes his power could overwhelm Shawn Porter as early as the first round of Saturday's world welterweight fight in at the StubHub Center in Carson, California, on Saturday. The 28 year old will be challenging for a world title for the first time two years after winning an eliminator for Porter's IBF belt. The unbeaten Sheffield boxer has had to wait for his chance because of injuries and Porter opting for a voluntary defence against Paulie Malignaggi before facing him. Brook was not overly impressed by Porter's fourth-round demolition of New Yorker Malignaggi or other recent wins over Devon Alexander and Julio Diaz. "I've got no doubts about the result," Brook told ESPN of this weekend's bout. "I think I can get a stoppage from round one. If I clip him, I'm going to finish him. I hit hard, harder than his previous opponents, and I will be looking for it. He has beaten the likes of Malignaggi and Diaz, but their best days are behind them. Diaz and Malignaggi have been in hard fights recently so you can't look too much into those wins Porter had over them." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mofo2 Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 I am looking forward to this as well; its a tough test for Porter and a Big Ask for Brook, but I reckon Brook will go against the general opinion and win this one!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mofo2 Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 I guess since Carson I have looked at him a little more closely and I think I underestimated his ability tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackrican23 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 he can box and punch I think when naz said 3 years ago he could ko Pac at that time, he made me harder on Kell , but Saturday its a 50/50 fight no question Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mofo2 Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 Kell was hyped by pretty much everyone over here at one time or the other, but the earliest one that called it right was Joabb......I remember ripping him years ago when Kell was coming through and he said he was good enough to be a World Champion and I thought he looked a little to easy to tag; come saturday he could be proved right, he banged his drum for years!
