    sounds like team alexander have agreed to terms with don king, now it's down to team bradley to sign off on the 1.1mil deal shaw got from hbo

    before the kotelnik fight, i would've favored devon in this matchup, but he looked awful in that fight, often getting outpunched which i did not expect. i believe i overestimated devon's power based on the impressive uppercut ko versus juan urango, but the fact remains devon cracked a very tough egg. bradley is a similar egg but he's got more to his game than kotelnik, who gave devon headaches all night in St. Louis.

    i don't see bradley losing this fight at this moment in their careers. devons still a little young, perhaps a little too fresh to be in there with a very serious adult, a guy with scary intensity that enters to ringwalks accompanied by an egregious Christian rap version of Run DMC circa 1986--the fact that he can stay serious through that bull****--that tells me that bradley will be focused and will bore in on one thing only and that is getting in devon alexander's chest all night.

    my prediction: bradley by decision, 8 rounds to 4
    if devon fights bradley the way he fought kotelnik, he may get knocked out
    devon's got to elevate his game and show he belongs with the big 4 + ortiz + zab judah who is just kicking back watching all these fighters fight each other, you know zab is thinking i'll just fight the number one guy when the dust settles, and then i'll be the man at 140 again. i'd honestly favor zab over devon right now.

    Can you run through the terms that Alexander has agreed with his own promoter?

    This is not really news.
