18/04/2013 Brook v Alexander called off again

Today it has been confirmed that the IBF have ruled that Kevin Buizier will be the man to step up and face Devon Alexander after Britain's Kell Brook has pulled out through injury. Its the third time that this match up has been called off leaving many fans upset that the fight they have wanted to see, they will now have to wait to see.

Buizier who is 20-0 has been given the chance to step up as he is the IBF's mandatory challenger, this means that Kell Brook will fall back down the rankings and have to wait to get another chance at his world title shot in America.

It was the chance of a lifetime for Brook, who originally pulled out through injury, Alexander himself also had the fight delayed due to injury, and when all was cleared with both fighters and the papers had been signed it seemed that fight fans would get a Welterweight showdown that looked so promising. Alexander becomes the overwhelming favorite to retain his title and we will have to wait to see what happens with the Kell Brook saga.
