    Golden Boy Promotions CEO, Richard Schaefer said that there is a very good chance that southpaw former WBC junior welterweight king Devon Alexander, of St. Louis, Mo., could soon be matched against Argentinian knockout artist Lucas Matthysse, as part of an HBO televised double-header that would also feature newly crowned IBF titlist Cornelius Bundrage of Detroit defendng his belt against Miami's hard-hitting, unbeaten southpaw Erislandy Lara of Cuba.

    That will be a nice double header. Time for Lara to stop fighting chumps. Im sick of watching him blow them all out in 1 round.

    Who do you guys think should be the favorite in Alexander-Matthysse?

    Damn, boxing is shaping up! Terrific double, Alexander-Mattysse is certainly very interesting and finally the breakthrough fight for Lara who's been matched softly every since he stopped Brewer - the last man to defeat K9.

    Lara will completely outclass Bundrage. The Alexander/Matthysse fight will be interesting though.

    At least they are making Alexander earn his million.

    Funny that you categorized Grady Brewer as a tomato can.

    Agreed, so far his best was Brewer who is very underated, and he stoped him. I expect lara to box to a UD, maybe, just maybe if he is willing to risk it a late KO

    And for the record, i agreed its a tough fight, not that hes only fought tomatoe cans. Brewer is a good fighter.
