    oh ayt, yea after khan beat malignaggi he said he wanted maidana and for bradley-alexander to fight each other. The winner should end up fighting each other. I don't really care who fights who as long as the winner fight each other at the end.

    60/40 you can get your ass whooped.

    Seriously, this is ridiculous. Just split it up the middle and fight already. It's a win/win situation imo.

    The split should be a minor concern right now for Cunningham. The real concern should be getting Alexander to stop eating left hands.

    Maidana was never injured. His manager made it up because he and his manager were in a contract dispute. Maidana's fighting Chop Chop Corley next month.

    So you're saying he should accept the little money that he was offer? He even said he didn't even know there was negotiations involved.

    No I'm saying that the idea that Maidana would take a fight for peanuts is incorrect.

    You just don't read well.

    Team Alexander does not want this fight. Devon was beat like a rented mule against Kotelnik, and got a fortuitous decision. They know what's in store if they fight Bradley in January. However, because they've run their mouth so much, they can't straight up say Alexander needs more seasoning.

    Dead on the money, Reg.

    They've backed themselves into a corner, and a purse split is about their only out in the deck outside of claiming an injury, Maidana-style.

    Alexander got alot of media attention and drew 10'000 people for his last fight, Bradley couldn't even do 2K in his hometown, therefore he should stop acting like a diva and just fight. Everyone BUT him wants the tournament.

    If Alexander and his team expect more than 50/50 on this they are delusional. Bradley has acheived more, he travelled to the UK to win the WBC belt from Witter. Alexander's best win is Urango.

    Actually Khan himself said he would fight Maidana if Alexander and Bradley fought, with the winners facing each other.

    I knew it

    Alexander's people likes to talk big when calling people out but when the call gets answered. "Oh. we fill up more seats"


    ....sign the contract Diva Alexander.

    They want this fight. They just feel Alexander is a bigger draw in which is true. Bradley can only fill up up 1,000 people while Devon can fill up 10 thousands more. But like i said it should be 50/50 split. But i bet in a few hours or tommorow Bradley or Shaw will respond and say they deserves more of the split in their favor.
