    Didn't realise he made any demands? Its not that big a deal, the location is negotiable. You have tried to make it that a potential fight with Berto, Ortiz or Jones would absolutely have to be in the US, when that's really not the case.

      At the same time, there's no way in hell I'd want Kell Brook to fight Alexander in STL. Kell should try and push for a neutral site in America, somewhere like Jersey. That makes the most sense to me. Honestly, I'm surprised this fight was even being negotiated. I'm happy though, because it seems like Brook is actually going to get matched with a legit WW. If they can't get Alexander, they'll probably get Zaveck in the UK for July, which is fine by me for right now.
      this is a fight were devon could make a statement do a 12 rounder instead of ten,, fight in the UK and go beat brook,, (outside of khan i think brook draws decent #'s) plus this fight makes more $ in the UK i belive

      but were talkin bout sweet ol devin -_- dont think it happens

      i got devin by UD if it happens tho

        Well ok but thats just about fighting Kell Brook. Its nothing really to do with the location. If he can get bigger fights, good for him, so be it.

        Brook has a date set for Sheffield in July. It'd be up to Alexander's team to offer a nuetral venue in the US in August.

          Kell Brook will beat Devon if it's not in STL.

              LOL Brook fights nothing like Maidana, that's an awful comparison.

                If Brook losses to someone ala Alexander at WW it's not a win/win situation.
                How exactly is Alexander not a big player at WW? First off that division isn't stacked but by beating Maidana he put himself in a spot to fight the winner of Berto/Ortiz. That's pretty much the top of the division.

                and you're wrong, it is win/win. Like I said if he losses, he can say look I took a risk and it didn't work out. He is inexperienced and can say the inexperience was too much to overcome and still get a good payday out of it AND also good experience from it. If he wins he then sets himself off for very good paydays and a huge following. How exactly is that not a win/win situation.

                I think you just talk ****, to talk ****. I don't care if you don't like what I have to say but you're clearly wrong.

                  I knew this would happen, a few days ago i predict Brook would want to build on his growing status/fanbase in sheffield by not fighting outside of the UK.
