    The negotiations for my fight are almost done. The front runner is IBF Champion Devon Alexander. It’d be a unification bout at welterweight.



    Disgrace.

    style wise this is probably the easiest match up for Floyd
    Malignaggi would do better than Alexander this is a joke

    Fat dan does not seem to think this will happen

    What is the route for Kell Brook now? Any chance of engineering some form of vacant title fight for him to fight Khan later in the year?

    The IBF are pretty strict in those sorts of situations. Alexander will get stripped IMO. I know there'll be a lot in sanctioning fees but the IBF aren't has brazen as WBA/WBC/WBO. Also Floyd has never bothered with the IBF before, he only won one (against Zab) but dropped it straight away.

    Saying that though Money talks in boxing.

    The IBF will stick to there guns on this and strip Devon. Problem is nobody on there rankings is am exciting fight for Brook.

    This was the fight to see how good Brook is, if Devon fights in a unification fight that's disgusting as Kell is mandatory, but it's all happened before and that's boxing but more disappointing when it's a UK fighter. I guess the same happened with Stevenson and Froch who moved on for a bigger fight (Carl didn't pull out though)

    Would like to point out that many of you who are clammering for the IBF to strip DA, were complaining when the IBF have stipped fighters who take bigger fights/unifications.
