False.

AB calls big bro only 4 people...Floyd, Alexander, Peterson, Warren. He has a personal relationship with each and everyone of em and outside of AB vs Floyd, aint nobody trying to see AB vs Peterson or Alexander.
I wanted to watch him fight Alexander, back then when he was calling him big bro when they brought up a potential fight between them,same with Floyd, wasn't till Floyd damn near 40 that he went from "that's big bro, Ill never fight him", to him changing up his words and saying he would

Fighting Shawn Porter > fighting Devon Alexander and Floyd won't fight Broner...even when Broner called him out.

Y'all aint missing no key matchup with Broner's big bros. That's like me saying I'm mad Mikey Garcia didnt fight Marcos Maidana or Nonito Donaire:manny:

You don't think AB vs PED would be a good fight? That'd be a hard fight for both parties

What kind of commercial is this for he looking like Eliot Ness

Aye, breh...am I the only one that wonders what would happen if somebody just stepped to him on the street? I mean, he looks and sounds so goofy so it wouldn't be out of the question for somebody to try and punk him if they didn't know who he was. I'm just imagining some "bro" who only watches UFC getting a little too drunk and trying to punk him at the bar or something and just getting a hole literally punched through his face.

First,no one is mad that those fights didn't happen, second, you're trying to compare 2 totally diffrent situations,Broner and Alexander were linked multiple times as potential opponents,yet didn't share trainers..
You bringing up Mikey VS Maidana,when They share the same trainer, an obvious conflict of interest, have they even been in the same weight class or near when a realistic fight could of been made between them? Unlike Broner VS Alexander?

I always wonder that with a lot of these Eastern European fighters. They all have an unassuming look to them yet hold some demonic power in their hands. Even a dude like Kovalev pretty much looks like an Electrician or something and he's not all that well known. Some college kid could easily try to fukk with him if he was just sitting at the bar - especially with the weird accent. Or a dude like Ruslan Provodnikov who's like 5'5, Asian, and chubby.

Kevin Cunningham, who is Devon Alexander's trainer, also works in Broner's corner at times and helps train Broner in camp when Mike Stafford isn't there (just like Barry Hunter/Lamont Peterson)

If AB vs Alexander should've happened, then Garcia vs Donaire should've been on your wish list...ESPECIALLY after Donaire left Robert Garcia.

All I'm gonna say is kov killed a man in the ring and that was with gloves. People don't understand how hard boxers hit WITH gloves let alone barehanded. :hubie:
