    That is a terrible location for that fight, it would likely do terrible in Vegas also but that is a bit closer to St. Louis and the Brits would probably be more likely to travel there.

    East coast or Midwest is where the fight should probably be, although on that date East coast seems out.

      Jan 19th:
      At New York (HBO): Orlando Salido vs. Miguel Angel "Mikey" Garcia, 12 rounds, for Salido's WBO featherweight title; Gennady Golovkin vs. Gabriel Rosado, 12 rounds, for Golovkin's WBA middleweight title; Roman "Rocky" Martinez vs. Juan Carlos Burgos, 12 rounds, for Martinez's WBO junior lightweight title
      It will be a great date for the fight, I will need some action to help balance out the mellow that Alexander fighting will bring over me.

        Change dates and venues.

        Putting a St Louis native in LA to fight a Brit makes no sense at all.

        Make it AC in January 12th in AC.

          This fight belongs in the UK or as an undercard. Shoot of just thrown it in on the Garcia vs. Judah event.

            It'll do just fine with Lucas on the undercard.


            Brook fans are more casual fans IMO so it'll be great that they get to see Lucas, they will love him!
            Fixed it for you my friend

              Your idea makes TOO MUCH sense and since when do they do anything that makes sense?

              Garcia-Judah
              Matthysse-TBA
              Alexander-Brook

              Loaded card? Showtime can't afford it?

              With that said, GBP sucks when it comes to this crap. Always shuffling cards around when they're a month away. Remember what happened with Alexander-Bailey?

                Plus you would have Quillin (or Paulie) and Jacobs on it too. It would be similar to the loaded Garcia vs. Morales card they did earlier.

                Alexander/Brook will flop in LA unless a large number of UK fans travel from overseas. St. Louis could have been a possibility to and negotiate the judges. Maybe a judge from the UK, a judge from the U.S. and a judge from another country.

                  Do they ever use this set up in the US? Only time Ive seen it is overseas. Can't think of any right now...

                    Matthyse will be on the Judah/Garcia card. That will be another great night in the Braclays

                      Damn I really wanted to see Matthysse on the Garcia-Judah undercard time to buy tickets to the Garcia-Salido fight then
