If Devon Alexander beats Kell Brook convincingly will he get credit?

It's a strong contender, so why wouldn't he get some love?
Of course if Brook just fails his following fights miserably, it won't help his resume much.

With Devon its not about "if" its about "how".

If its convincing aka Alexander vs. Maidana, he will get hated on

If its convincing aka Alexander vs. Urango, he will gain some fans

It seems like no matter who he fights, or who he beats, he always gets a lot of criticism on here. Even though the guy fights tough opponent after tough opponent and he's always competitive against most of them.

If Devon beats Brook convincingly I don't see how he can not get credit. But on good ole boxingscene, I'm sure there'll be a few who find a way to concoct some kind of hate for the victory.

Devon will never get the credit he deserves on here. He's a guy people love to hate no matter what he does.

People were saying the same thing going into the Maidana fight, and tons of them still refuse to give him credit for that win.

Hell the same could be said about the Bailey fight, there were a lot of people here who thought he couldn't handle Bailey's power and when he did they just called Bailey old and shot.

Good ole' NSB. I imagine after he beats Brook convincingly people will just say Brook was a bum who never fought anyone and again refuse to give Devon his just dues.

He will get a lot of credit from me, I personally feel Brook beats him convincingly!

**Hougigo** · 03-20-2013, 04:34 PM

Nah, because people will just say "who is Kell Brook? He was a bum who got exposed"
Or something like that

**Fetta** · 03-20-2013, 04:35 PM

No he wont. I will give him credit but i think hes a good fighter already.

I thought his performance against Marcos Maidana was tremendous. One of his better showings.

Devon displayed some nice boxing ability in that one and was able to shut down everything Maidana tried to do.

I don't know who I'm picking yet but Brook is no joke and he is a real threat to win that belt off of Devon.
