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

    Juan Urango is a big 140 lbs fighter and the fight happened at 140 lbs.

    Well i'm one that does not take records or past opponents as seriously as some, because for certain reasons they can be deceiving.

    I look at their skills, how they handle adversity. If you have skills and heart you can go far ( as well as having politics on your side).
    If Alexander had losses to Kotelnik and Matthyse where would he be now and how would he be viewed? in a very different light.You think i'm being harsh i know , I predicted Mayweather to beat Hatton by UD despite being british.

    Ward was a prospect fighting the favorite to win the tournament, if Kessler was better there is no reason he couldn't go to the US and still beat him.

    From the hands of one of Ward's bigger critics about fighting at home.

    Someone else who can see the hypocrisy. Point being it's okay for some, but not all.

    I don't see the difference. Shouldn't Alexander feel just as confident going to England? If Alexander is better and the champ, there should be no problem. Brook doesn't have a belt or a gold medal.

    I don't have any problem with Ward, but don't bring him into this. :nono

    Well If your the mandatory and have worked your way up i say it should go to bids, but if your the champ and are making a voluntary defence then yeah you have the right to fight in your home town

    The fight should happen and it should be in the states (not necessarily St Louis)

    Just remember, no matter where it happens the outcome will be the same

    29 have tried, they have failed, as will the next 29 when he becomes 58-0

    Naeeee blue print

    He'll beat Devon anywhere but in St Louis. Devon gotta be low on confidence after the Bailey snoozer.

    When I see posters who I have seen **** and moan about Ward fighting at home turn around and say it's okay for the champ to fight at home, that they have every right, that is hypocritical. If you don't like what I have to say don't respond, kindly :****off

    Well after reading a few things on WBN its more than likely that Alexander will vacate, hes saying he wants the Mayweathers and Mannys of the world and says he doesnt even know who brook is which is obviously a load of pish. All this says hes not interested.

    Maybe i was right in thinking Alexander wanted cheaply to become a 2 weight champ and then duck and run onto a pipe dream of facing Mayweather

    That 'non factor' is about to take the title of a American, regardless of location.

    Logically I don't know the winner, however now I don't only want Brook to win, but Alexander to lose thanks to **** comments like this.
