    first of all let me say this isn't me claiming to be an expert. I watched the fight at my trainers house. Adrien Davis or AD to those who know him. Trains out of Sugar Ray gym in DC, well Landover to be exact.

    O yea he has 11 world champions on his resume so let's not go there trolls. Pretty much anyone from DC not name Peterson has won a belt with him.


    1: Parry Khan's jab with his back hand while throwing a stiff jab with his lead hand.

    - You see tripple G do this a lot it makes his jab very strong

    2: Use the shovel hook instead of the conventional hook or check hook

    - Khan gets whoobled by 2 kinds of punchings: looping punches, and punches that change levels. Pretty much because he never sees them coming. The shovel hook starts from the bottom and raises to the top, and is very hard for fighters like Khan to see coming.


    3: Turned conventional to land his right hook

    - Unfortunately for Devon he's not a switch hitter, but if he was he could put himself in a better position to land a right hook. Why, mainly because it would turn his left into his lead, and hide his right hand in back, therefore making it difficult to see.




    Unfortunately, only a few fighters today very up their ****nal. It's no secret why Khan fought to back to back south pa in lead to a Floyd match, he just looks against them because the can't get in position to put any kind of leverage on their power punches.


    Don't be surprised when you see a guy like Kell Brook ice him, but then see Devon give Kell Brook a hard time.

    1.don't follow the whole got damn time. cut the ring, khan just circle to his left which is the most predictable thing when southpaws vs orthodox.

    2. dont try to outbox khan as plan A

    3. punch when khan punches

    Am I missing something or does Number 1 make no sense?

    GGG does this, against Orthodox fighters, he himself is also Orthodox which means the jab hand and the rear hand line up, so he can catch and fireback without crossing his arms.

    In a SP vs Orth encounter their lead hands line up, so for him to catch with his backhand he would have to reach across himself, leaving a massive opening for Khans right hand

    The only way for Devon Alexander to have beaten Amir Khan is to not have been born Devon Alexander.
