    Difference being Brook actually deserved a thin decision whereas Alexander has robbed fighters blind

    Let's just cut all the trash talk and wait to see how the negotiations progress, or the purse bid is ordered.

    This duck talk is ridiculous, as it started just days after Alexander won the title. Hardly time for that sort of accusation for anyone with a modicum of rationality.

    Alexander should fight Brook just to prove a point. I'm sick of these Brook fans thinking he's the second coming without ever beating anyone of note. Alexander is a clear level above him and will end this hype.

    Brook is a better fighter than Devon

    So he might be ducking him, there is no blueprint

    Nice strategic move by Brook's team: duck the more formidable Bradley, pretend like nobody knows, then call out the lesser Alexander.

    It's been what, a week and a half since Alexander won the belt? And the Brook fans expect a deal to already be signed?

    Listening to that round unfold live on Radio was mental :lol:

    Froch stalked him in calm and cool fashion given the circumstances

    Anyone got the full Showtime coverage including aftermatch stuff?

    Not Alexander's fault that Maidana didn't adjust well or that the IBF champion wasn't "that good".

    Just watched Carson Jones vs Kell Brook

    Brook reminds me alot of Khan actually. Not nearly as talented, fast or powerful but somethings stand out.

    - When he gets hit he loses all his defensive fundimentals. Amplified because he fights with his hands at his waist. Ok for the cans he's used to fighting. Against decemt comp he'll take punishment

    - needs range to be effective. Cant fight on inside is constantly pushing off because he cant create his own range with footwork

    - which brings me to footwork, absolutely awful. Moves with no real purpose. Move 1-2 move 1-2 move 1-2. No real flow or style.


    Alexander is a better stylistic matchup for Brook. Cant see Alexander being troubled however. Activity and superior footwork should swamp him. Peterson or Bradley obliterate him.
