    Slightly surprised this fight has come off so quickly.


    Who takes it, and why?

    Alexander. Kell Brook has nothing, like literally nothing.

    Well, he must have something to get to where he is. He is quite easy to hit though. I see him having some success against Alexander, but I see Alexander outhinking him and getting the win on the cards.

    kell is an accurate puncher, but alexander is a scrappy fighter with limited skill. once he starts getting hit constantly with that accurate steel rod of a jab by kell, devon will duck out the fight, just like he did against bradley.

    i don't see anything special about devon alexander. lets be honest, devon should of stopped bailey in the last fight. he could of easily done it, as bailey threw, what? 10 punches the whole fight? maidana is so up and down when it comes to form, he quit in the bradley fight, and lost to matthysse. i'm not saying brook is amazing, because this will be his biggest test, but devon isn't as super as everyone makes him out to be.

    Devon Alexander has never been beaten around the ring by an Oklahoma club fighter


    Devon has faced a better quality of opponent and beaten a better quality of opponent. You can say well be got a few gifts. All those were against the best in his division.

    Meanwhile Kell Brook got a gift vs a club fighter. Bit different son

    If Brook couldnt handle Carson Jones Maidana would kill him. Maidana nearly killed khan. And Devon handled him with relative ease.

    Alexander will make the fight borin and win a UD 117-111
    Brook will hit him quite good in the first 6 rounds until Brook gasses
    Wouldnt be suprised if Alexander stops Brook with an uppercut

    I think Kell serves up a whooping.
