Gateway To Greatness: The Devon Alexander Story premieres Thursday on FOX Sports Midwest
World Champion Devon Alexander journeyed from the Hyde Park neighborhood of St. Louis, where he was one of 13 kids living under one roof, to a place as one of boxing’s brightest stars and an HBO headliner. FOX Sports Midwest tells Alexander’s story and chronicles his training for Saturday’s championship bout in Gateway To Greatness: The Devon Alexander Story.
