Re: Alexander Brand
He gave Badou Jack all he could handle. Very awkward and strong fighter.

Re: Alexander Brand
Let's get real people. He's an ok fighter but he will lose every round decisively.
Re: Alexander Brand
Jack has significantly improved since their fight and I don't think Brand pushing him close is that impressive, not to mention that fighters like Periban and Edwards had similar or more success. From what I've seen of Brand he's a decent but unspectacular SMW and I don't consider him close to world class.
As has been repeated ad nauseum, it's a very underwhelming bout for an elite fighter with major TV backing---the opponent doesn't have much of a name, lacks notable wins, is nearly 40, and has fought almost entirely at SMW, meaning he's not exactly a good opponent to help Ward break into 175. I get that Ward has fought excellent opposition in the past and may well fight Kovalev, but why has he been searching for such poor opponents lately? I think he was also trying to fight Caleb Truax and Dimitri Sartison shortly before his most recent stretch of inactivity.
