who performed better vs kotelnik? alexander or maidana?

first off i aint a fan of maidana at all, i think he has a lot of unwarranted hype about him.

secondly i also do not hate alexander, i expected him ton dominate kotelnik, and expected him to have an easier night than khan did.

instead what we got got was a good start, i gave alexander the first 5 rounds, and then kotelnik just took over, he was able to outland alexander even though he threw a lot less shoots, he was able to throw alexander off his rythm and more than that he was able to re-establish himself as a top name in the division. a lot of people, me included, had big expectations of alexander. he didnt meet them. no when we look over his recent wins, the witter fight wasnt overly impressive and if he hadnt suffered that injury it could have been a much different fight. the urango fight, full credit noone else has kayoed him before. the kotelnik fight, not impressive.

it is beggining to look like the urnago fight was a jewel in a pile of ****.

 

what im saying is, that kotelnik demonstrated he was a better boxer that night, which is why he won more rounds than maidana did. but maidana was able to land some big shots and could have had kotelnik in trouble if he did not have an iron chin.

alexander not being focused is bull. he has had enough dodgey performances that we can safely say he is not the big thing we expected.
