    Why not Judah-Malignaggi @ 140 on the undercard of a big fight? Being that they're both from Brooklyn might make good hype especially if the fight is at MSG, Boardwalk Hall or something like that.

      Thats actually not a bad idea. HBO seems to want to put on fights that draw ratings and an all Brooklyn fight can do just that. I'm not sure how interesting it would be with Malignaggi in it but Judah might make it somewhat entertaining.
      As for Campbell needing a fight why not the WBA titlist or even Torres in a WBO eliminator. Witter always looking for a good fight and he'll need an opponent after Branco.

        Judah beats Cambell. Judah lost a good share of fights at ww because Judah is just too small. And he fights the best at the weight. At 140 hes another fighter, he deff stops cambell at jww

            HBO is bugging, BRING in showtime. I really want to see Campbell-Judah, winner gets Marquez. I think Judah would beat Campbell and Marquez-Judah is too tough to tell, I'd probably say Marquez got this one.

              Much rather see Campbell facing Judah as opposed to Malignaggi...but an Alexander fight would be interesting

                Alexander is not ready for someone like Nate. His toughest opponent was Corley, who he went the distance with. The same Corley that went into the Alexander fight coming off 3 straight losses, and got 2 more after that. Nate would ruin Alexander.

                  Please do not ruin Alexander he could have a bright future. I would much rather see Nate smash Paulie anyways, LOL.

                    I actually like alexander, and think he could develop into a pretty decent fighter. But he's not there just yet. When they called me about it, I'm like "are you sure you want to do that to this kid?". But hey, if HBO likes it, and we cant make anything else, then so be it........

                      Haha, true you have to fight who they want. I am so suprised they said Malinaggi though, I do not think I could have controlled my laughter.

                      Alexander has some really lofty ranking though, fighting him would have to aid Nate in getting in good position for a title fight.
