    Eddie couldn't afford to get a half-decent opponent for McCloskey over here, let alone someone like Alexander.

    He had enough to get Bute over, he clearly doesn't give a **** about Mccloskey anymore, he's ****.

    We know whats going to happen if the fight is remotely close, i dont think Brook has got enough to appear that much better than Alexander who will spoil and make the fight as ugly as possible. Alexander close UD.

    If Brook doesn't stop DA. Hearn will have to pay a fortune to get him another shot.

    Winning on points isn't an option. Kotelnik did it clearly enough and couldn't get another fight after it. If Brook looks good and gets robbed who's gonna want him then?

    I still don't get why Hearn was so bothered about going the IBF route, couldn't he of just payed senchenko a nice fee to bring him over with the WBA title ?

    I'll say this, i don't like Brook much but if he beats Alexander in the US then he's done more to earn a paper title than anybody else i can remember

    Lol. No he didnt. It was bute who paid frich to fight him. Dont get me wrong 10 tickets and a couple hundread from sky obviously helped but froch was seen as the opponent. Bute was bringing in the money from canada and romania and epix.

    Bute was seen as a stay at home fighter and wanted to get rid of thst stigma. He was looking at kessler in denmark aswell.

    Your a spastic, it was a Matchroom promotion, which means Hearn paid Bute.

    Talking of ******ed, what are you still doing here?

    When is Clevs big stateside debut against a big name?

    What about Kel's defeat?

    Why not just be a man of your word and **** off?
