    He'll be back but without the titles he earned damn hard, so it's hard to see anyone wanting to fight him which is why I say f*ck you to all who says '**** happens' or 'good learning experience in a tough fight for Devon', it's a great and very respectful fighter's career that's been jobbed and he didn't deserve such treatment.

    Exactly imagine if he got the nod the other night. He would hold wins over maidana and alexander and have his straps. The guy would be right at the top and probably get a decent payday fight or fights.

    Sadly politics control the sport, but every now and then someone sends a warm "**** you" to the system like Maravilla recently or Hopkins used to, people can't imagine how much **** they had to go through to reach such heights.

    Kotelnik got jobbed on Saturday, he clearly won, but left without the titles and future big paydays that would have awaited him.

    When I re-watched the fight, I saw many of Alexander’s punches either fell short, were picked off or partially blocked or were grazing blows. I feel that “power punches” is deceiving because jabs can be just as effective a weapon as power punches and sometimes an effective jab is just as good, if not better than ineffective power punches. I thought Kotelnik’s jab was more effective than what Alexander brought to the table because Kotelnik’s jab landed more often and harder. I thought Kotelnik won more rounds based on clean punching, defense and ring generalship. Alexander was aggressive, but not effective and while I applaud his effort, I think the wrong fighter got the decision
