Will Kell Brook come to America to fight Alexander or does he not want the belt?

China chinned???

 

This. Devon Alexander coming to England for a mandatory that just ISNT going to happen. Il be absolutely amazed if it did. But it wont and i say that in total confidence

 

well if hes ready to come here n get his name out. he will come wen his confidence is at a high , i believe he prolly made the right decision declining the bradley fight for a couple reasons. arum was prolly tryin to hustle them wit a bogus contract, an they knew they would lose anyway.

 

He has a suspect chin and you know it. I'm calling it now if he faces Alexander he will get put on ***** street. I have nothing against Brook but IMO he needs to prove himself against someone with a pulse before he gets he gets into the ring with a fighter the caliber of Alexander.

 

Don't Brook and his team realise that they'll have way more leverage for a potential Khan/Hatton fight if they have a world title/win over a top contender first?, both of which would be achieved by beating Alexander. If this fight doesn't come off it's bull****. Khan is still at 140 and Hatton hasn't even had one comeback fight yet, Brook can't just keep waiting around beating up soft touches until a payday comes along. That kind of attitude is what's killing the sport.

 

I dont think hes lacking confidence in his abilities, i think hes lacking confidence in the St Louis officials being fair

 

He fought a pretty hard puncher in Carson Jones, was poorly conditioned and stayed on his feet the entire time, and won the fight. Not sure we can make any assumptions about his chin yet. A false sense of slickness =/= china chin, as far as I'm concerned.

 

Good point. There is risk but also reward, and potential for more reward if he takes the belt. He should go to the US to fight Alexander, but this is boxing after all. :-(

Ive seen nothing suspect about Brooks chin, Alexanders Caliber? untidy jab although fast, constantly holds makes a hell of alot of noise, has cracked under the pressure. At the most Alexander is about half a level above Brook but that is more based on what he was accomplished, but has a few suspect wins, Kotelnik, Matthsye etc.

If they fight keep your eye on Brooks timing as that is key to beating speed

 

Hearn will win the purse bids because he knows Alexander won't travel to fight. Alexander will drop the title and Brook will fight an obscure opponent in Sheffield.

Brook is a better fighter than Alexander is. He'll beat him clearly unless Alexander ducks him.

 

well i was talking about the bradley fight not the alexander fight. unless ur gettin mixed up with the two. bradley from cali and alexander from st louis. but yea it wouldnt be smart to fite devon in st louis . lucas got the win over him 4 sure n i think kotelnik beat him 2. but the judges had alexanders back.

 

Ok gotcha, Bradley fight hmmm as long as Arum allows it to be just , which i doubt he will. The plan was to get a world title and have more bargaining power but plans dont always come to fruition due to politics

 

The difference in the level of opposition is vast. Alexander has shared the ring with elite level boxers the same can't be said for Brook. You can't overlook this fact. You act as if Alexander is trash or something he has good skills and will give Brook hell and be the favorite going into the fight.

 

really?? i cant see devon puttin anyone on ***** street. he hasnt sense urango and urango was small movin up in weight.
