Alexander beats Khan

Alexander is going to be hunched over falling short with his punches all night long

whilst Khan will be timing nice right hands, jabs and setting up left hooks.

 

Well...since the bar has been previously set by Broner and Berto...this would seem a step up.

 

Sad but true:yep
:smoke

 

Khan's got this one in the bag.

 

This pretty much, but he won't outbox Khan. He has to hurt him to win.

 

i think he could outbox khan, hes not as good in exchanges now, im still picking khan though assuming he has improved the style a good bit

 

A lot of people are going to be mad when Khan losses this.
Alexander lost to Porter yea, well Khan almost got KTFO by a LW the fight before Collazo.

Devon is probably as underrated as Khan is overrated, close fight early on maybe 1/2 points either way. Alexander catches him with something big in the 8/9th probably a left upper cut. if he doesn't stop Khan he changes the final tempo of the fight an pulls off a UD.

 

Devon got beaten by porter

 

Julio Diaz?

Erm you watch the first Diaz Porter fight? The one Julio Diaz nearly won? ended in a draw? had Porter hurt and on the backfoot in the end rounds?

:good

The facts remain:

Alexander couldn't outbox Matthysse
LOST TO Kotelnik (who Khan boxed to pieces)
Lost to Porter & Bradley bumrush pressure style

Khan Vs Alexander @ 140 2009-2012 = Khan victory
Khan Vs Alexander @ 147 2014 = ??? My bets on Khan

 

First off I don't think anyone in their right mind feels Khan would even get in the ring with Matthysse or Porter.
I'm a Matthysse fan and think DA edged it or it was a draw.
Resume wise Alexander arguably has a better record.
Finally the only reason Alexander even lost to Porter was because Khan ducked out of a fight last year.

 

That would be like me saying the only reason Khan got robbed by Peterson was because Bradley ducked out of the 140 unification bout :tired

Porter is a harder fight than Alexander for Khan no doubt.

& Matthysse is a death warrant.

 

Same things were said before he fought maidana.

 

Khan-Maidana I was a draw Khan won off a early knockdown and a point deduction.

You see how Khan ducked out of a rematch challenege this year.

 

When Ortiz beat undefeated Berto in a war that was good

Beating Alexander not far removed from a loss to porter is not on that level
