    Fair enough - I had him down as another P.Will or Chad Dawson who can't really sell tickets...

    My bad - sorry Mr.Alexander

    It's became it bit of a stereotype recently that these Americans can't sell tickets. :-( Bad times for the sport.

    Stereotype but with some truth in it; boxing in the uk doesn't have massive exposure in the media (much like the US) but you regularly get decent to big attendances for fights.

    I can't remember the examples but I'm sure in a recent thread people were posting that some of the alltime classics actually had very low attendances - crazy really

    Devon just seems a bit thick.......too thick to really be that good a fighter, if that makes any sense?

    Khan would knock Alexander out. Alexander lost to Kotelnik!

    Probly cos he goes from saying Khan beat the weakest champion in the division when he beat Kotelnik then struggles ( and in some peoples eyes lost ) with the same guy and then refuses to unify. Not exactly a good champion

    Fair enough.

    But he's just a simple guy outside of the ring. Not the most intelligent. He's just got his eyes on the bigger prize - Mayweather or Pacquiao - but fails to realize that in order to get those fights, he has to settle business at 140 to catapult him to that next level.

    Alexanders a fool im not the biggest Khan fan but Khan would beat him handily as will Bradley.In a couple of years time Khan and Bradley will still be at the top of Boxing while Alexander will be down to What more or less Zab Judah is today only not quite as good as Judah.
