    The welterweight divison is slowly coming back to life...not as good as the SBW,LWW, LMW, MW, SMW....but it's getting there...

    PLUS we have Bradley, Hatton, Berto, Maliggnagi, possibly Khan & Marquez....
    Tell me what other match up's you would like to see...

    I think many would say Alexander would beat him. But i think Brook could give him problems.

    It all depends on how he looks against Bailey, who he should beat comfortably.

    I think Brook vs Khan has/will happen now. I think Khan beats him, oddly. I think Berto gives anyone a tough time at 147. Malignaggi is a boss with no power, so he would have trouble in with Berto. And we'll see what the Hitman can do in his next outing. He should win by UD or mid round ko.

    If Hatton's not shot.

    Bradley can beat anyone on there, but can be KTFO. Kendell Holt caught him a peach at 140.

    The division is slowly starting to heat up.

    Right now I'd take Alexander no question about it.
    Brook is a good talent, Not sure IF he can fight on the DA level tho?

    You're damn right Bradley can clean out that divison...outside of Mayweather...and possibly Pacquiao...(I think he beats Pac man in a rematch).

    Devon Alexander can be the next Floyd Mayweather Jr.

    You heard it from Dan Rafael first.

    Alexander, Brook almost getting stopped in his last fight is concerning.

    Kell Brook passed by against Carson Jones but only just so I guess that the natural answer is if he faces Alexander who will surely beat Bailey that Alexander is a at least a 3-to-1 favourite. But Good fight it would be. Brook beats Bailedy with one hand tied of course.

    Alexander gets grossly underrated on our board.

    Brook likes southpaws, Alexander will get beat up & quit.

    Would have favored Brook, but I think the Alexander who fought Maidana would be too good for him. Toss up.

    Im going to wait and see what difference this strength and conditioning coach does for Brook before making a judgement. If Brook maintains his pace and tenacity over the full distance i would favour him make Alexander fold late or win a close decision. Alexander does get underated as someone else mentioned but he isnt anything special, that was evident in his fights with Bradley and Kotelnik, more a flash in the pan than anything of any real substance.
