    Devon Alexander:

    ''Of course I want that fight [with Floyd Mayweather Jr]. If that fight presents itself I’d welcome it. I heard Amir Khan call me out. If Khan wants that fight then I’ll take that fight too. What makes Floyd better than me? I got skills; I’m fast like him. Any slick fighter, he has problems with. [Beating Khan] could be the way to Mayweather if I have to go the Khan route. He should want to fight the best. Why shouldn’t he? I beat some of the best guys out there back to back''

    I don't dislike Devon, and the hate he receives in assenine. That being said, May/Alexander is a **** fight. Would like to see him against Khan though.

    Had it been Brook that he beaten in his last fight, I'd be more intersted in him fighting Floyd...
    All he can do is keep winning and looking impressive. He's a factor @ WW and He's way better than he gets credit for.

    Devon has speed, power and he's pretty good technically. His timing and accuracy is ****, he can't land the big hits against top tier fighters, similar to Mike Jones.

    Yeah, I'm almost sympathetic towards him because of that in a similar way I was with Timmy (who's deserved P4P material). He's a solid little fighter.

    Asw ith all boxers, Im glad to see he has confidence in his own abilities.

    I disagree with him of course, but theres nothing wrong with HIM thinking hes the best.

    :D

    He's good, man. Bradley probably deserves one too, but it seems like people have cooled off. I remember the night of the Provodnikov fight he was STILL getting hated on in numerous different threads ... ("Matthysse wouldve done this, Matthysse would've done that")..Oh STFU :roll: I was pissed. :lol:

    Lol, yea. If Bradley pulls it off against Marquez, watch the hate re-emerge.

    Alexander gained a new fan on saturday.

    Before saturday I was on the fence with his, not really a fan, not against him. But now im for him, unless he's in with Mayweather. However I wouldn't want to see this fight.

    Yea he's got a ton of haters even tho the dudes got a sick resume.
    I loved how he treated Maidana like a ragdoll. Haters didn't have anything to say and they don't like to bring that fight up.
    And unfortunately it took bradley nearly getting killed to gain some respect :lol:
