Yeah, good luck finding that. That's an "if" that isn't happening.

alexander will expose provo's ears with his loud annoying grunts

Does Arum promote Provodnikov? If so we know that he'll never let him fight Devon Alexander since he's with Golden Boy.

Say what you will about Devon, but I think Cunningham is right. Devon's constant use of his legs would put Provodnikov out of his ideal distance. Couple that up with Devon's long jab and I think he can outbox him easy. With that being said, a pressure guy like Matthysse got to Devon, hit him with heavy shots and put him down for the first time in his career.

Bad match up stylistically speaking. Alexander vs Thurman might be a good match or as they would say a sleeper.

I think Thurman would give Alexander all he could handle and his body shots would slow Alexander down. Could be a lot of clinches and holding and of course it would have to be on Showtime.

What about a Peterson vs Alexander?

Khan/Alexander and Ortiz/Alexander would be interesting as well

I see this senile old coot is still fooling some on NSB

[mrlopez]

if a lil pressure from bradley and matthyse can shake devon, I'm sure provo would be able to get to him too. not saying devon loses as I think its a pick em fight but c'mon cunninham! devon looked like serious sh.it vs bailey and you expect us to believe you?

And ultimately beat him and was jobbed.
