Comments Thread For: Alexander Hungers To Match His Skill Against Mayweather

[box yo head off]

Just circle to devons left and you beat him since he's actually right handed

see this is the reason I don't really come on this site cause no one seems to know what there talking about....Devon is a natural southpaw what are you talking bout

Absolutely wrong. I felt Ghost was a great opponent, and he would SMOKE the Mayweather who fought Cotto. Ghost is a very good fighter, and at ww he's huge and way more durable. He can brawl, box, tactically counterpunch, and make small adjustments on the fly. I think everyone at ww will have a problem beating Ghost, and I had no problem with him as an opponent for Floyd.

lool what makes you think he would smoke that floyd he is not better than cotto

Not when u paid a man $32 million and he's getting a cut out of the ppv money too

Lets just do simple math; at 870k buy at that $70 price gets you $60 mil; and they made almost 10 mil at the game so thats $70 mil in profits name another fighter who is doing that if it did 870k

The guy seems willing to fight anyone to make his case for Floyd fight. Thats alright in my book.

To me, it doesn't make sense for Showtime to lie about the success, or lack thereof, of the Floyd-Ghost. First of all, they have a ****** contract with Floyd to begin with. Second of all, if they lost money, that's all the ammunition they need to force Floyd into doing whatever they want him to do from a match-up standpoint. To me, it appears very much like they still have they lips planted firmed on Mr Mayweather's butt cheeks. So looking at everything involved, I'd make an educated guess that the Floyd-Ghost event was a success, even if the success was moderate or less than expected.

Refreshing to see commonsense. I disagree with people it was a dumb deal for Showtime in the past 13 years it probaly on been 3 PPV's on Showtime and one was split PPV for Lewis-Tyson. So having the most profitable boxer for 6 PPV's in the next years to build up your brand in boxing is a smart move. Rather the number 870k or over a mil thats just about the range most people predicted for the fight and they will be better depending on the opponent if it Canelo that number could close to 2mil buys

Okay Devon Sr we know you love your son but lets get real on the subject

Devon's dad died from cancer a few years back.


As for everyone saying Devon won't be ready because of his hand, you're wrong. He should be able to get back into the gym 4-5 weeks from last Sunday which give him plenty of time to go through a camp and prepare before the fight would take place.

870k for any other fighter is great. Not for a Floyd ppv though. He should be at 1.2 and up.

Depending on who you listen to it may be close to 1.2 mil; like I said before if your a Floyd you will tend believe the over a mil and you hate the guy most will believe the 870k number or worst as a big Floyd fan i was at the fight I think number is probaly lil bit over a mil buys

He don't have the skills to even make a fight with Mayweather "COMPETITIVE" right now!

I think him and Khan should fight each other and I would be OK with the winner of that getting a shot at Mayweather sometime NEXT YEAR even though neither would have a chance against Mayweather
