Thurman vs Alexander in the works

[El Angel]

I wouldn't hold my breathe.

The fans want it - Strike 1
Keith and Devon want it - Strike 2
It makes sense - Strike 3


So no go. It will probably be Keith Thurman vs. Roberto Garcia and Devon Alexander vs.TBA co-headlining or some ****.

Sad this is how all of us think.

You are absolutely correct. However, GBP can only perpetuate the myth that every welterweight is afraid of Thurman for so long before even the dumb fans start to see the truth. The dumb ones are starting to wise up.

Gross. I'd rather watch Thurman against Guerrero or someone who comes to fight. Alexander will try to outbox and outrun Thurman which should make for a pretty boring fight.

This would be a good fight for Thurman at this point.

Love him or hate him Alexander don't duck nobody and doesn't like taking easy fights. Kids got some balls which is refreshing to see these days.

How many fights has he got about 26? and already fought Bradley, Matthysse, Maidana, Karass, Bailey, Porter, Urangu, Kotelnik & whoever else I've missed

Definitely. He did it when he had the choice not to, too, which is especially commendable.

The hate he got after showing a lot of heart against Matthysse was unwarranted, that didn't even get acknowledged.

props to alexander if its true. The dude will fight anyone, except he will usually find a way to turn it into a snooze show. But this sucks if this is oct. 18 same day as GGG

It'd be a great fight, anyway if he is indeed fighting Roberto Garcia I don't mind that much either. Garcia is a durable guy who can test Thurmans power and also brings some of his own.

no one is denying his balls but people hate on him cause he stinks out his dangerous fights by running and holding like crazy. And he gets a lot of hometown gifts, and he does absurd things like requesting 10 rounds against maidana and matthysse even though hes headlining an HBO card
