    Maidana really is a blown up 140lb fighter who for me is soft at the weight.

    That is another reason as to why I think Brook beats Alexander too, Brooks a big guy who doesn't have the wins/names on his resume but hes fought at welter his whole career & been in with big welterweights.
    Both guys was shredded at 150.
    Now you are just reaching. Devon got bigger when he finally became an adult, remember he was fighting in title fights when he was around the age of 20, and out grew 140. Sure he has only had 3 fights at 147, but that's his weight and he has looked impressive at it. Hell, he struggled to make 140 his last 3 or so fights at that weight.

    So what if Brook has fought at 147 his entire career? Devon is a full fledged ww now and to suggest Brook has an advantage because he has more ww fights is silly.

        It's nothing alike to what an actual journeyman is. As in, the literal meaning of he word.

        A journeyman is a fighter who fights on a weekly basis, losing more time than not, for pay cheques traveling all across the country. Hence the term, "journeyman"

          Words can't explain why, anyone who thinks he's actually the 4th best ww in the world (Floyd is ranked as champion) is kidding themselves.

              he's not even with golden boy. maybe they ranked him so high to make alexander look better kinda like putting guerrero on the p4p list which was hilarious.

                Brook sucks, so predictable and limited.

                  That's the crazy thing. He's been ranked in the top 10 for 113 weeks now, which to me is laughable too. My guess is it has to do with his 0 and him just moving up because guys have left the weight class, lost, or retired. Either way it's a joke and makes no logical sense.

                    Yes, he's using the Berto method, to a much worse degree actually. Just beat bums and wait to be ranked higher when all the other fighters fight each other. Berto became the #2 contender after beating Quitana

                      The only reason I can think of is that most of the other guys in their top 10 are relatively new to the WW division. Most of them have only had 1 or 2 fights at the weight. Brook's a career welterweight.

                      alternatively, ring are full of ish
