    Negotiations are "almost done" according to Floyd.

    What the fuck. I hope this fight doesn't break 100k PPV buys. Who gives a fuck about Devon Alexander?!

    stylistically alexander is a worse opponent than guerrero to watch mayweather jr. face and he has been exposed as a pussy, but he would probably beat guerrero if the two fought.

    This is a joke. Alexander was supposed to be a test for a contender I.E Kell Brook and now the greatest of all time :shit: wants the fight

    Mayweather is not going to fight Alexander. For one, he's using this to lower Guererro's asking price by making him think he's not getting the fight. Secondly, he's doing this to make the Guererro fight look that much better by pretending he's going to fight boring ass Alexander.

    If he does fight Alexander, he's just a giant vagina plain and simple.

    I hope you're right. And your theory makes some sense. And look at me? Already my attitude about Guerrero has changed, with the possibility of Alexander looming.

    The IBF will not approve of Mayweather-Alexander. He will be stripped if he chooses to fight Floyd. They are waiting to hear from Devon's camp.

    Alexander already signed a contract to fight Brook. They will most likely threaten legal action if he tries to get out of the fight.

    Agree with Z. Remember when Floyd said he might fight Matthew Hatton while he was negotiating with Mosley?

    Agreed. He's boring and crap. He arguably lost 3 in a row FFS, and got dominated by Bradley. I would honestly rather a Marquez rematch than scrubby Zander. Or indeed Guerrero, who is significantly better.

    This is typical Mayweather tactics. I'd be shocked if he fought Alexander.

    Honestly, I think Mayweather/Ghost is a good fight at this point.

    Tougher fight for Floyd is Guerrero.

    See, it already worked. The thought of an Alexander fight makes a Guererro fight seem like a great fight.

    Seems to be the Mayweather way. Leak that you're going to fight somebody who's a complete joke like Hatton's brother, then switch opponents.

    "Well at least he's better than so and so"

    I've felt that way since the Ghost was thrown around as a possible opponent. Floyd's getting old... he's not as good as he used to be. Ghost is a gamer. He fights hard, has some skill... honestly, I think it's a good fight.

    No doubt. It's bunk.

    You don't think Ghost can give Floyd a good fight at this point?

    Alexander is going to lose not because Floyd is better. He's going to lose because of the ring.

    Seriously?

    'p4p No.1 isn't good enough to defend against' - the IBF

    They would have had to request an optional defense and he missed the deadline.
