    I personally think they (Bradley/Alexander) should both fight one more fight before fighting each other.

      2. Why owuldnt make the fight now? Neither one of them are known at all. Neither are big stars. Bradley said he wanted to fight some cake yet hes back to Abregu. Alexander sells like Nelly in St. Louis. Why not fight him?

      3. Schafer has been wrong before. 3 Million buys for May-Mosley comes to mind. This same Schafer actually used the excuse that he was trying to build up Maidana-Khan rather then them fight each other.


      To me the logical money fight is actually vs. Alexander. Alexander only can put up 15,000 or more in STL.

      Letting things build up is killing the sport. He rather fight a little known WW than a guy with 2 belts in his own division. Something is up pump. Id love for yall to catch up with Devon about this.
      You have no idea how it works.

      You mean like Williams who sold 500 tickets the other night for Cintron, asking for 50-50 against Pavlik who sold almost 5,000 for Martinez.

      Or how about HBO offering as much money for Bradley-Alexander as they are for Bradley-Judah. These are young guys who never made REAL money. They are just getting their feet wet.

      The tickets have nothing to do with anything. The money being made is from HBO and the guarantee, not tickets and WHAT PROOF is there that Alexander can sell 15,000, 10,000, or even 5,000. They couldn't even secure a venue for Alexander-Urango and had to take the fight to the Mohegan Sun. Don't you think they would have taken it to St. Louis if they could bring 15,000 people there.

                Bradley surely seemed on his way to stardom but has fallen off the radar. Waiting for fights is bad and activity is good. With activity at least he would have exposure and at the same time stay sharp. I don't care if it's against fringe contenders all these guys, Bradley, D.Alexander and even other division 'stars to be' like Chad Dawson, need to fight and stop waiting for opportunity to come find them.

                  Its safe to say you and I understand why Williams asked for 50-50. Pavlik ruined two fights and two training camps.

                  Whats wrong with that? Your're proving my point if they are offereing the EXACT same amount then why does he want Judah rather than a guy at 140 with two belts. One that actually was Bradleys?

                  The tickets have nothing to do with anything. The money being made is from HBO and the guarantee, not tickets and WHAT PROOF is there that Alexander can sell 15,000, 10,000, or even 5,000.

                  Cmon pump you telling me an unknown guy like Bradley would not benefit from fighting in front of 15000 people? Then you says hes unknown. STL would represent that fight big time. ESPECIALLY a 140 Pound UNIFICATION bout.

                  So essentially Bradley is making the same for Judah that he would make vs. Alexander? Thats a duck. Alexander has 2 belts and a bigger fanbase. When is the last time Judah weighed 140 pounds?

                  I would absolutely LOVE if Reeno hooked up with Devon and asked him whats up with Bradley not wanting the fight. Alexander and his team would have a whole different story.

                    You danced around the question of Alexander-Urango being forced to go CT and the existence of proof that Devon can draw that much in St. Louis. Bradley already said on here he would take the fight if HBO puts the right money on the table. If that fight is worth to them as much as Bradley-Judah, then why do it now.

                      I dont remember what happened with that fight. But I do remember Spinks was suppose to be on that card and he backed out. Maybe that played a role. Maybe Urango played a role.

                      All Im saying is that its extremely weird that the Alexander the guy with 2 straps is chasing Tim. All I saying is that I wish Bradley showed the same fire that Alexander has.
