as a person and as a boxer... The only thing Alexander posses which Khan doesn't is an iron chin... Alexander keeps talking about how Khan should shutup about Mayweather but looking through Alexanders twitter all I see is him retweeting people telling him how he is going to KO khan and kick his ass and how he deserves the Mayweather fight... lol. Both should get off twitter and focus on their jobs...but hey the only reason Khan is even being mentioned for a Mayweather fight unlike Alexander is his perceived 'marketability' social media etc etc.
The other thing I think is Alexander is not exactly renowned for being the most enjoyable to watch. If he wins he will for sure be in the mix up for Mayweather but I think he is more of a last resort
that is why i think Khan actually has a pretty good shot of getting through Alexander... this fight is "winnable" for Khan... I'm interested to see how he looks at welterweight... alexander is by no means a dangerous choice for khan...
Khan has a style advantage over guys like Alexander and Judah, due to his hand speed. If Alexander waits too much, he's going to get outboxed just like Judah.
Alexander is a heck of a lot better than Molina and Diaz thats for sure... Khan is done, Alexander wins this easily.
at least devon never got knocked out like khan , but devon been in sum controversy fights. he basically quit vs bradley and got imo lucky wins over lucas and kotelnik. an devons trainer i used to not like but man hes a good trainer cunningham that is
I wouldnt be so sure about that.. Khan struggles with punchers/sluggers/brawlers Alexander is a slick boxer with not much pop, when was the last time you saw Khan get outboxed?
:deal Exactly. Khan is an underrated boxer. People look at his chin and say he sucks. And to some extent I agree about his lack of chin. I'll point out Pacquiao has been hurt and KOd more times than Khan though yet Pac has iron chin. If you compare the time of sleep, Khan comes nowhere close to Pacquiao
Both are bums, but at least one fights everyone and has a lot of courage despite the fragile mandible, while the other quits like a bum. Money May defeats both on the same night!!! TMT baby
Hell with the same night they could have a 24 round fight each fighter taking turns against Floyd. Final verdict Khan knocked out and a shut out over Alexander.
Alexander has more than enough power to KTFO Khan, Khans glass chin could be protected a bit if he had any RING IQ but glass chin and no brain worst combination, Alexander knocks him out!
Im with CIPPI on this issue.... Alexander threw the towel in against Bradley and just didn't like it when it turned into a fight. He may have an iron chin but he doesn't like it when someones throwing back. I see Khan throwing a lot of quick combinations and running for the 12 rounds, I see this fight a lot like the Maidana fight. I think Khan is too quick and slick for Devon although i see Khan having some iffy moments throughout the fight when he gets caught.
I also think Alexander is better at 147 than he was at 140. Alexander should win this but credit to Khan for fighting top opposition yet again.
