    Devon Alexander has been ordered to defend his IBF welterweight title against mandatory challenger Kell Brook or risk losing his belt.

    Eh? Good one?

    But seriously this fight would be ugly. Although I would like it to happen.

    Alexander has no real reason to not fight Brooks.

    Devon doesn't know who brook is, he's a big timer now and all he wants are the pacquiaos and the mayweathers of the world.

    They've already welcomed Brook over to the U.S. Brook doesn't deserve
    Alexander anyway, he needs to avenge that (win) against Carson Jones

    Kotelnik - Robbed.

    Matthysse - Robbed.

    Bradley - Alexander Quits.

    Maidana - Did not adapt well at 147.

    Bailey - not that good, losing most of the rounds against jones and with that lucky punch. also 38 years old.

    Why is he a mandatory who did he beat, i think Brook hits hard but is he really this scary of a fighter that a guy like Devon would be afraid to fight him

    i think Devon wants a big paycheck and is gonna pursue the big 2

    not saying this wouldnt be a good fight and i would like to see it

    Devon ain't a real champ anyway. **** him. Hope Brook gets his shot and wins. But if Devon gets stripped, it hardly hurts him. That belt is worthless.

    THen he should have no problems with this being made. It's a quality win versus a top contender, which is just what Alexander is, despite the title.
