    Why not have it in Miami, where Baily is from?

    dumb move by Bailey....there's no way he wins a decision anywhere. they could fight in his living room with his parents as judges and he can't put in enough work to win a decision. this fight sucks anyways, who wants to watch Bailey do nothing for 10 rounds again? He has become horribly boring in his old age despite still having the ability to end things with one punch at anytime. Alexander will win easy and then hopefully the guy makes some decent fights at WW. Alexander vs Berto or Ortiz would be great. Josesito would be another good one.

    Bailey doesn't have the ability to win a decision anymore. Devon actually hits hard enough to knock him out.

    Bailey knew this was a cash out fight and i don't understand why he isn't trying to get the most money.

    He probably needs a knockout to win no matter where the fight takes place. It's not like he's all that active of a fighter.

    He's from Miami and Florida has no state income tax. Why not have the fight there?

    Less money than he would get in a St. Louis fight I'm guessing.

    I don't have any facts or inside info or anything to back it up, but I just get this weird feeling this fight isn't going to happen. Hope I'm wrong.

    i'm thinking it might be on the undercard of chavez-martinez or canelo-lopez. i would love if they put on the same card as dawson-ward so i can see it live.

    Because it's not Alexander's right to have a hometown crowd being the undeserving challenger.

    What percentage of ticket sales is Bailey getting for the fight?
