Brook by wide dec or close dec?
Yes this is what im talking about. He has lots of fights against nobodies but now he wants to fight Devon Alexander. He also wanted to fight Khan before this so it looks like one of our guys is finally ready to step up. We also have Groves going for Steglits. A dangerous move going for a guy ranked fourth in the world with only 14 fights under his name but if he loses and puts up a good fight, it will not do any damage to his career. Look at Khan and Prescot. Khan lost his 18th fight against Prescot and is still UKs top fighter.
Cleverly really needs to be the one to make a move now.
Good fight this one for Brook, he will show his class and box Alexanders head off.;DQuote:

I may go and see this fight with my son.;D
Hearn's says that GBP do not want the fight in July but August so think that is their excuse not to make the fight. Brooks will beat Alexander.
Brook just isnt that good , he doesnt hit hard at top level , hangs his chin in the air , and will lose soon. watch this space.
I think Brooks is technically very good and should beat Alexander.Quote:

I agree he will be a world champion and not a fake wbo belt holder!!
lets hope they dont let alexander to hit and hold
They're only mentioning Alexander's name to make it look like they're trying to get a world level opponent for brook's next fight. There's zero chance Golden Boy are going to let Alexander come to Britain to be the opponent for the house fighter. If Brook really want s to fight him he'll have to go to America.
Yes, this. Clearly.Quote:

I thought Kevin Mitchell was the true Brit? ;D
fight is not likely to happen for quite a while.
Alexander likes to fight in St. Louis, where the Kotelnik and Matthyse fights tell us you have to KO his ass to win.
Brook would have to bring his own judges to win.
Alexander wouldn't come to the UK for the fight.
Brooks should take the chance to fight Alexander in the US, I am convinced he would beat him quite easily.
Maybe Devon Alexander is a better welterweight than he was a junior welterweight. If that is the case, let's not rule out that he could be a force in the welterweight division, whether you like his holding style of boxing or not. As he's just signed with Al Haymon, I'm certain he won't be put in the ring with Brooks level competition anytime soon, although I'd love to be proved wrong.
What happened to Finito's favorite middleweight, Kid Chocolate? Signed with Haymon and now is fighting a former Paul Williams (also managed by Haymon) victim (3 years ago too), Winky Wright, on Showtime. Haymon is doing his job.
Yup, it's all been covered now. Even aside from promotion etc., I don't think Alexander has all that much faith in his own ability. To me that's why he held so much against Maidana in part. Before that was quitting against Bradley because of a small cut in a fight where he was never really hurt etc. Despite this, he does have a bit of a name and now is working with a major promoter. All signs point to no way in hell this happens.
Why does he keep calling out Light Welterweights?:confused:
No fighter should call out someone from the weight class below IMO.
I know Bradley is stepping up to face Pacquiao, but he hasn't won that fight yet, so who knows what the future holds.
I hope Kell kills Alexander in the ring. The stupid crap that Alexander pulled during the Maidana fight made me enraged.
That is a ridiculous statement and you should be banned for making it.Quote:

No, you're right. That'd be a bit harsh. All the same, Devon Alexander ought to be ashamed for the way he fought that night. Boring ass fight. Can't wait till he gets somebody more skilled than Maidana to brutally knock his girly ass out.Quote:
