QUOTE (checkleft @ Feb 2 2013, 01:47 AM)  Williams height would be a problem for anyone if he used it! He can be outboxed for gods sake quintana outboxed him for 12. But he never used his reach and height how he should have, that boy was too philly and I don't even think hes from philly lol. Eventually that's what got him caught cold against serg he could do it..he did it against margarito. he did it at the half way point when he fought martinez the first time. he also did it against quintana in the rematch and kolle. he just didn't stay with it when he needed too. his eagerness to mix it up was also his undoing. |

Just saw Mayweaher's twitter and he announced that Alexander is the front runner to fight him and it would be a unification fight. I hope he's pranking the fans, or maybe his twitter got hacked lol.... Either way that's a shit fight

Devon's a smallish guy who couldnt get past Bradley. Mayweather has his reach advantage, so I'm guessing this fight will be made. Here's to him, he found another easy way out... |

Mayweather fighting Alexander? what the fuck? Devon is boring as fuuck!! More boring than Bradley or Malinaggi fights. I know Mayweather hasn't fought for almost a year now but talk about a soft touch.

And there was seriously time consuming negotiations regarding that, during which time - and up till now - Guerrero suddenly went eerily quite...must have been told to so do, to not upset the negotiations. We should hear from Guerrero pretty soon. By the way, now that one thinks about it, the Mayweather-Guerrero negotiations must have already broken down by the time Mayweather tweeted that the news of him fighting Guerrero was just a rumor, and that he (Mayweather) didn't at that point know who he would fight on May 4th - meaning they were already in negotiations with other fighters for that date. Unfortunately, people don't always believe - some even have the tendency to sneer at - the signal Mayweather gives. But that's part of the fight game, of course. And now, who else has a belt that at WW Mayweather can fight? I wouldn't expect Mayweather to fight at 154 straight out of jail. Even if he was there for only one day, the mental shock was enough to negatively affect someone whose life especially outside the ring has been around the Big Boy Mansion and clubbing like forever. Call it an excuse, it is what it is. Therefore, if it is the Alexander fight for May 4th, I won't be surprised. P34c3 |

Im Almost certain Canelo will take an even softer touch now if Floyd was to fight Devon. I can only assume that he'd take such a fight as a soft touch and then get ready for Canelo.... I still think as a PPV, this is a hard sell |

I read the same on Mayweather's facebook page. Doesn't add up tho. Isnt Alexander fighting Brook? They said he'd be redy in 8 weeks. No way he can fight then turn around and fight Floyd.

No way he can fight then turn around and fight Floyd. Which is probably why Brook and his promoter think the injury was BS. Brooks' promoter, Eddie Hearn is saying that they won't take any step aside money to allow them to unify the belts. I hope that is true and that if they try to proceed with the match that Devon gets stripped of the title |
