Corley fears the chop chop

DeMarcus Corley insists his fight with Devon Alexander is "do-or-die" in respect to his career.

Former WBO champion knows defeat will end his career

DeMarcus Corley insists his fight with Devon Alexander is "do-or-die" in respect to his career. After three successive defeats - including his WBC title clash with Britain's Junior Witter - Corley knows he cannot afford another loss on his record. And the former WBO light welterweight champion is in no mood to lose to Alexander when they meet on the undercard to the Roy Jones Jnr/Felix Trinidad bout on Saturday at Madison Square Garden. 'Chop Chop' Corley said: "It's do-or-die for me right now. I'm fighting on one leg. I'm like a dog with a broken leg. "If I lose this one I'm out. I can't call Don King and ask for another match if I lose another fight. "If I knock this kid Devon Alexander out it would help me. Just getting past him is not enough. I need to knock him out. "He and his team have shown me a lot of respect. I appreciate that. "After the staredown at the press conference, I told him to bring his 'A' game. He asked for me. You got to be careful what you ask for because you might get it."
