He spoke about wanting Bradley a.s.a.p. because the weight was becoming a real problem and he did not know how much longer he could continue to make 140.
I'm positive that Alexander has been struggling to make 140 for some time now.

But some fighters do kill themselves to make weight, even though I agree that it is a common excuse.
And when that fighter looks much better immediately after moving up in weight, you have to ask the question, and Team Alexander have been mentioning his weight struggles for a long time now.
Personally, I think that Alexander needs to stay at 147, and Maidana needs to drop back down to 140.
I am also not sold on Devon yet, but I am looking forward to his next fight, especially if he stays at welter.
