That's a good reason to pull out of a fight with Kell Brook.

Re: Mayweather vs Alexander
The style contrast isn't good, and it will likely be a boring bout, but it's a much bigger opportunity for Alexander.

Apparently it will be a unification bout.The Dark Destroyer wrote:Absolutely it is for him, I don't blame him at all, the Brook was just a more competitive fight. I assume he'll drop the IBF?

Yep cant blame Alexander ! More $, more interest, less chance of winning though !crusader wrote:The style contrast isn't good, and it will likely be a boring bout, but it's a much bigger opportunity for Alexander.
Re: Mayweather vs Alexander
Paulie seems to want to fight Maidana, and the WBA just ordered him to fight Diego Chaves. I'm not sure who the leading option is though.The Dark Destroyer wrote:Really?

Any idea who Malignaggi is fighting? Perhaps Hearn could work some magic with the WBA.
Re: Mayweather vs Alexander
In that case I'm leaning toward the belt being dropped.
Re: Mayweather vs Alexander
A number of people, including Fat Dan, seem to think that Mayweather is BSing.
We shall see.

Re: Mayweather vs Alexander
I'm in Vegas that weekend and considering going....extremely underwhelmed if it really is Alexander though, dear oh dear.
Re: Mayweather vs Alexander
He had to be stripped contract signed fight agree with kell. Zavcek is the next in line.The Dark Destroyer wrote:Fat Dan just tweeted saying it wouldn't be a unification, I think he'd be right seeing as though Brook is mandatory and the IBF ordered it. Step aside cash? Drop the belt?
Re: Mayweather vs Alexander?
if i was kell id do a lennox lewis and take this to the court room
Re: Mayweather vs Alexander?
Whoa, Alexander is locked into a contract to box Kell, who is his mandatory.
He can probably back out and take the retirement cash he'd get from boxing PBF but he couldn't take the IBF belt with him.
If he wants to shaft Kell and box PBF, he'll have to vacate first.
In that scenario, can't really see the attraction for PBF. PBF is looking for a belt.

Re: Mayweather vs Alexander?
A governing body will strip someone and lose out on a fee and their title being fought for by the best boxer out there in order to protect the rights of an unknown challenger? Hmmm.
Re: Mayweather vs Alexander?
this would be a horrible fight to watch and i think floyd would just hold devon off with relative ease
Re: Mayweather vs Alexander?
If its not going to be a unification fight i dont see the point of PBF making this fight.
Re: Mayweather vs Alexander?
You are correct , but if the belt is not there, it has to be a fighter that at least brings a 40%-50% chance of winning/ like pac of alveres or the Ghost, To generate the £££££££Daniel Jamson wrote:PBF is the title... the belts don't really matter.

Re: Mayweather vs Alexander?
Floyd is a title. He could generate enough cash fighting exibitions. Anyone who beats Floyd, even with no title on the line, is world number one no question.

Re: Mayweather vs Alexander?
I rather so much more fighters than Alexander, I would even prefer Malignaggi.
I really hope this fight doesn't happen because it would be terrible and a very easy win for Mayweather.

Re: Mayweather vs Alexander?
Agreed. Bradley and Matthyse both beat Alexander. This just seems like an easy pay day. Keeping his 0 etc. I would respect him more fighting Alvarez. Pacman fights pointless only real competative fight out there is Martinez, although a big step up in weight. It's the only fight that will show us how amazing Floyd is because although these fighters are good, he beats Guerrero, Martinez, Alexander and the rest 100 times out of 100brian13 wrote:I rather so much more fighters than Alexander, I would even prefer Malignaggi.
