    Devon's not unbeatable, but Brook hasn't beaten anybody to make me think he can take Devon.

    This one goes the distance. Devon uses his hand and foot speed the build up an early lead. Brook works behind his jab and has some moments. They trade a few of the middle rounds and Devon takes the decision.

    alexander on points

    i think he has made some nice improvements since his loss to Bradley and i think his experience carries the day vs a guy who really struggled to get by Carson Jones

    I have seen plenty of Brook fights i think he is very good but this is a monumental step up in class on the road vs a guy who is not shot or past his best

    I wouldn't say he got a gift. He faded badly late in the fight but I think he had enough done to just scrape it. Says his conditioning is much better now. Didn't get to see enough of him in his last fight to determine that.

    Alexander quits quicker than he did against Bradley

    People forget Brook beat Matthew Hatton up worse than Canelo did and dropped him, something Alvarez couldnt do in front of thousands of screaming Mexicans. Carson Jones was a bad night, he was absolutely schooling him though before he gassed.

    Alexander is a mollycoddled hypejob and should have 3 losses on his record. Every time steps up to top level he fails, 19th of January will be no exception.

    Better than 154 pounder Canelo did, you do the maths. Alvarez is hyped as this offensive monster yet couldnt floor Hatton. Kell did tho :deal

    Come see me when your boy Devon is blubbing on his stool after that glass heart shatters again :happy

    This is definitely going the distance. I think Devon wins 115-113 or similar.

    your boy already got his ass handed to him once by a guy with 8 losses and all he did was bleed all over the place like a stuck pig.....but props to him for at least stepping up to a legit champ.

    it's brook all the way! it will be technical for the first 4 rounds, but once kell has got his timing going, he's going to put on a boxing class.

    wide UD for brook.

    MW, you're a clown. brook didn't get a gift against jones in the slightest. he beat him real good. he got outclassed until kell gassed. and even then i gave most of those rounds to kell because jones wasn't landing clean shots. most of them missed.

    when kell beats alexander on the road, i bet you're one of the first to say it didn't mean anything because alexander was a nobody to begin with. i know how you operate.

    Kell is going into the lions den, into Devon Alexander's backyard to fight for Devon's title. In signing up for this fight, and heading to Alexander's backyard, Brook has already shown more heart and courage than Devon could dream of. Kell is the hungrier fighter, he's the better fighter and come January 19th... and the new IBF Welterweight Champion.

    Some fools on here are going to have serious egg on their face when Kell captures the title.


    How many times have I heard this excuse from Americans on here :-(

    Didn't show up against Timid Timmy.
    Got gift decisions against Kotelnik and Lucas.
    He became a beltholder by beating Bailey a guy who himself was suprized when he knocked his much hyped about opponent out.
    I wouldn't mind seeing Kell winning via TKO .
