Raucous Press Conference Kicks Off 'Gateway to Greatness'
ST. LOUIS--A typical boxing press conference today at Scottrade Center in St. Louis suddenly turned raucous after undefeated unified 140-pound world champion Devon Alexander's trainer told former WBA junior welterweight champion Andriy Kotelnik, a Ukrainian making his first visit to America, "That's a long way to come for an ass whuppin.'
Alexander (20-0, 13 KOs), from St. Louis, will put his WBC and IBF crowns on the line against Kotelnik (31-3-1, 13 KOs) in an Aug. 7 world championship doubleheader that will also feature undefeated IBF light heavyweight champion Tavoris "Thunder" Cloud (20-0, 18 KOs), from Tallahassee, Fla., taking on former IBF world champion Glen Johnson, from Jamaica now fighting out of Miami.
Kotelnik did not take kindly to Cunningham's comments on behalf of Alexander.
"They say it's a long way to come for an ass kicking, but I have a question for Devon Alexander after his people have made all these boasts," Kotelnik said. "Will Devon come back and fight me in a rematch in the Ukraine after I kick his ass?
