I don't care if he wins or loses. I'll only criticize him if he gives us another fight where I want to throw my tv out my window.
If Devon Alexander beats Kell Brook convincingly will he get credit?

Brook is a true WW big strong dude solid fighter Alexander should get credit if he wins convincingly I doubt he will thoughComment

Myself I credit that Devon is a good boxer. But his fights are awful to watch. The clinching in the Maidana fight and his lack of action against Bailey was gutwrenching.Comment

No one doubts Devon is a very, very good fighter. Maybe even great. That's not up for dicussion. However, the dude broke two cardinal rules;
1) He quit. And not only that, he quit from a minor injury.
2) He was on the receiving end of a gift decision.
Brook is pretty good, so he'll get some credit if he wins, but most people will still hate him for the above reasons.Comment

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.
Devon definitely deserves good credit if he beats Brook convincingly. Brooks a big, strong welterweight with a real ramrod jab, good timing, footwork. I think Brooks a solid fighter and I feel the Carson Jones fight was a real wake up call he'll of learned a great deal from.
Some may think he got a bit exposed but I feel Jones answered a lot of questions about Brook that night. In my opinion he showed a good chin, heart & the ability to dig deep, he showed he can fight inside.Comment

The Carson Jones fight exposed some c h i n k s in Brook's armor but I like that he went and got a nutritionist after that and an S&C coach as well. Theoretically he should be an improved version of himself.
In terms of his chin I don't believe he will have to worry about that too much against Alexander. But he might see some new wrinkles boxing-wise and it will be interesting to see if he can handle them and still get the win.Comment
