    Default Randall Bailey - Devon Alexander 9/8

    Should be a good fight IMO, I think Alexander wins a decision if he boxes like he did against Maidana. But Bailey is capable of a knockout vs anyone, he's such a strong puncher. He does have a punchers chance, Alexander will have to be careful, but I think he handles Bailey.

    I thought devon was allowed to hold entirely to much in maidana fight and don't recall him even bein warned for it, but it was in his hometown. What I'm sayin is I hope he's not allowed to "box" that was this time round

    This is a good money fight and Bailey earned it.

    He's got a puncher's chance, but Alexander is a lot faster and more active.

    I'll be rooting for Bailey, though I had hoped he would get a unification match with Malinaggi instead of this.

    Hopefully Alexander Can win the IBF title off Bailey, and then that will set up the unification against Malinaggi down the line, that would be an even better fight than taking on Malinaggi now. The winner of the Malinaggi - alexander or bailey fight could fight Bradley and unify the welterweight division. I think thats what should happen IMO.

    +1. I found that fight almost unwatchable due to Alexander's "style."

    I second that, and the only way Bailey has a real punchers chance in this one is if Alexander doesn't hold so much, which is probably unlikely given that. I'm not interested in this one at all really

    Bailey vs. Maidana would have been a lot more fun to watch than this.

    But, Maidana looked piss poor against Alexander and clearly lost so Alexander vs. Bailey is the fight.

    It's defo a fight to be made in the circumstances but in all honesty, I don't think that Bailey has much chance against Devon.

    I'm always weary of buying into guys counting strictly on power to pull them out. But hey at 40 and and the time put in I'm all about Bailey. 30 seconds of pulverizing Jones erased the pedestrian pace both showed in there for me. No hype on that one...he's one of the most concussive and true punchers over the last number of years. He's earned it. And well, it is against Devon alexander.

    Logic says Alexander too young, too fast and too much. But for me its his mentality in some that makes this one good. I think he needs to attack ol' man Bailey early and often turn his old rickity legs and flash combos inside and get him out, he has the tools but he can be phyched out and I don't think he forces pace. Bailey can linger. That gives Bailey life at least early. If he catches Alexander, I dont think Devon takes it. Not at all. They should call this one The Bull in the china shop.

    And with Khan hopefully moving up soon, I think the 147 weight class is really going to have some good fights within the next year. I would love to see khan fight Alexander, Bailey, maliniaggi again or Bradley. All great fights to be made these are.
