Comments Thread For: Alexander vs. Brook Heading To Nokia in Los Angeles

That is a terrible location for that fight, it would likely do terrible in Vegas also but that is a bit closer to St. Louis and the Brits would probably be more likely to travel there.

East coast or Midwest is where the fight should probably be, although on that date East coast seems out.

It will be a great date for the fight, I will need some action to help balance out the mellow that Alexander fighting will bring over me.

Change dates and venues.

Putting a St Louis native in LA to fight a Brit makes no sense at all.

Make it AC in January 12th in AC.

This fight belongs in the UK or as an undercard. Shoot of just thrown it in on the Garcia vs. Judah event.

It'll do just fine with Lucas on the undercard.


Brook fans are more casual fans IMO so it'll be great that they get to see Lucas, they will love him!

Fixed it for you my friend

Your idea makes TOO MUCH sense and since when do they do anything that makes sense?

Garcia-Judah
Matthysse-TBA
Alexander-Brook

Loaded card? Showtime can't afford it?

With that said, GBP sucks when it comes to this crap. Always shuffling cards around when they're a month away. Remember what happened with Alexander-Bailey?

Plus you would have Quillin (or Paulie) and Jacobs on it too. It would be similar to the loaded Garcia vs. Morales card they did earlier.

Alexander/Brook will flop in LA unless a large number of UK fans travel from overseas. St. Louis could have been a possibility to and negotiate the judges. Maybe a judge from the UK, a judge from the U.S. and a judge from another country.

Do they ever use this set up in the US? Only time Ive seen it is overseas. Can't think of any right now...

Matthyse will be on the Judah/Garcia card. That will be another great night in the Braclays

[Rajon34]

Damn I really wanted to see Matthysse on the Garcia-Judah undercard time to buy tickets to the Garcia-Salido fight then
