Don't understand the hold up either way, he'd have a great chance to beat just about anyone aside from Floyd or Manny, and makes no effort to pursue the fights.
He gets paid ok. Also has a decent sponsorship deal with betfair. I just get the feeling that hes waiting for a weak beltholder to come along. He didnt fancy his chances v Alexander so avoided him until something he thinks is easier comes along. The winner of Porter v Paulie is probably that.
That is being too sceptical, no one would risk that, he clearly had an injury. Brooks would have beaten Devon any way. What was there to be afraid of?
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
