    i dont like the thought of Devon fighting Diaz. Diaz imo is no good over 135lb, he is simply too small and not powerful enough. Maybe Torres but to me none of them deserve a shot and in that respect Casamayor is the best option. He slipped against Marquez but thats it. Torres and Judah havent done anything lately (except get KO'd(torres) and beat bums(judah))

        Alexander's team are a bunch of ****in jokers. They wait till Bradley signs a fight to start trash talking and saying he's ducking him. Then then line up this soft ass "hitlist"....too funny. Trashing Amir Khan for fighting Paulie but lining up Juan Diaz aka Paulie's leftovers....lol STFU Cunningham you clown.

              Bradley was available to fight after the Urango fight. They were talkin about fighting Zab Judah. Suddenly Bradley confirms an opponent and they start talking trash...lol

                LOL he's accusing of Timmy of ducking him, yet he picks out of this scrub list?

                Spaddy is old.

                Judah is a decent choice, but still unproven I suppose

                Juan Diaz looked completely out of shape in the Malignaggi rematch, and said that he wants to fight at 135

                Casamayor is old, shot and looked horrible at 140 against a green Jason Davis on the Judah-Hernandez undercard...Even before the Marquez fight Casamayor didn't look like he was at his best.

                Torres is retired, and I doubt he's at his best anymore.

                I suppose you could argue that those are the best options right now, but Bradley did say "Let's do it" when asked about Alexander. Notice how they never said anything about Don King attempting to negotiate with Gary Shaw, and them declining. Bradley has had that June date since like January, and it is a stay active fight. I'm sure he'll be willing to fight Alexander afterwards, or possibly in 2011 when both are more relevent. I just hate how they waited until he got a stay active fight signed to start trash talking again, and never even attempted to sign a fight. They've also been negotiating the Judah fight since way before the Urango fight, so why are they trying to act like they've been working hard to make this fight?

                Doesn't Alexander have a mandatory defense with Mabuza to worry about anyways?

                    it wasnt exactly the next day, but bradley did sign to fight abregu pretty quickly after the alexander win.

                      Bradley-Alexander is the megafight at 140lbs, no doubt. I hope it gets made later this year
