        good for the handlers for he even allowing this fight 2 take place in detroit. wtf was they thinking???? who cares if alexander got a questionable decision back in stl, you gotta have the fight where it would sell good. miguel cotto (2 some people) got a questionable decision in nyc vs clottey and guess what??? they gonna keep on having cotto fights in nyc because he can sell out msg. in stl, 12k sold out, great atmosphere for a fight. instead we might have a 2k for this fight.

          they aren't exactly the kind of fighters that have fans on the edge of their seats...i don't expect a big turn out of fans,don't think alexander is that good and bradley is ok,to me he's above average,fans want action and not boring fights,both didn't exactly do a lot in their last fights,fans will choose who they want to see

            If Bradley cant sell tickets in Palm Springs, how the **** will he in Pontiac?

            FAIL!
            They got a bigger site fee in Detroit and no way Bradley would fight in St. Louis after Devon lost his last fight and got a gift decision in his hometown. We already saw what happened to Hopkins and other fighters when you fight a fighter in his hometown.

                I saw a segment on an Thai news channel when I was traveling and it investigate a town in Detroit that didn't have ready access to vegetables. Vegetables!?

                It wouldn't seem a place to put on a million-dollar fight.

                  Detroit is a city and the towns inside Detroit are worse than Detroit itself (like Highland Park), I have never had any issues downtown.

                  Pontiac is not Detroit it is an outlying suburb like 20 or 30 miles away~ (that borders the nice suburbs)

                      This has absolutely nothing to do with Bradley and Alexanders level of talent, but it has everything to do with promotion and how they appeal to the public (American or not).

                      If you'll recall, Dirrell v.s. Abraham was also held in Detroit not too long ago..
