    BRADLEY VS. ALEXANDER IN JEOPARDY OVER PURSE SPLIT?

    "Devon's first title defense at home drew 10,000! That's more than all of Bradley's home defenses put together. It's clear that Bradley needs Devon if he wants to get out of the 1,800 seat ballroom that he's being promoted in," stated Kevin Cunningham, trainer and manager of WBC & IBF jr. welterweight champion Devon Alexander, as he reached out to FightHype.com to comment on the current status of negotiations for a jr. welterweight unification with WBO champion Timothy Bradley. Although reports suggest that a January bout between Alexander and Bradley is nearly finalized, it appears as though there's a dispute brewing over the purse split.:-(

    Purse split should be the least of their concerns right now. Winner would become a star and massive purses would follow.

    Man up, clowns.

    It is sad cuz the winner of this fight could get a huge payday maybe against the winner of hatton-marquez(if it happens)or someone big at welterweight.

    Bradley is full of ****, he would make more money fighting Alexander than he has previously with anyone else, yet he either wants to wait to let it build or an unreasonably large split. Bradley should go ahead and fight instead of acting all scared, remember he balked at the 140 lb tournament because he didn't want to fight Alexander, who isn't even all that good.

    boooooooo

    Boxing Sucks. Seriously, i think i'd rather watch WWE, those guys will fight anyone.

    When Hulk Hogan was world champion he never ducked or dodged noone.

    if they too are fighting over this purse, it'll be a lot worse for a khan fight for either of them considering the split he will get being the cash cow.

    Both men would make more than they ever have in the past - that part is irrelevant.

    Khan will also get his chin split when he fights Bradley.
