You claim he has a weak resume yet you're willing to pick Khan and Ortiz over him? Based on what? Khan beating two (now 3) feather fisted fighters in a row and avoiding big punchers? Ortiz quitting against Maidana? Or are you picking them based solely on apparent talent, and not resume? Which is the same thing a lot of people are doing with Devon, which seems to be getting your panties in a twist.
People! People! Jackie is just pissed that I stomp him in every "debate" we have so he tries to get back at me by bashing guys I like like Alexander and Dirrell. Problem is, I pick fighters I like based on talent, if Dirrell skill set was that of a Carl Froch even if he was from Michigan I wouldnt like him. P4P even though Alexander is from the Lou, I think he's going to be the best of the current crop of youngsters including Ward and Dirrell. Thats just my opinion. He has pop, he has defense, he can box, he can mix it up, he has everything that makes a potentially great fighter. Like I said, you heard it here first, Alexander The Great, will be great This content is protected
Alexander did not "stand in the pocket" against Urango. He is a mid to long range fighter who uses his legs to evade his opponents offense.
I don't think 29 is old, but I do know that Urango is no Bradley, Peterson, Maidana, Khan, Malinaggi, Ortiz, Hatton, Marquez, Holt, Campbell, etc... Does anyone disagree with this?
Urango is a crude but tough and relentless guy. He gives anyone a tough fight and those who can't stand up to his attack he beats. Urango is a hard fight for anyone in the 140 division and is a former belt holder. I could see him beating Khan, Ortiz, Holt and Maidana.
people act like this kid just came out the woodwork and fought Witter. He was one of the top prospects in the world for awhile but was just ridiculously promoted by King and wasn't getting nearly enough fights for somebody with his experience and age. Anyone that's watched his rise could see that he has always possessed the tools to become a bonafide star.
You are ****in ridiculous Pimp C. You only see him beating these guys because you have an obvious agenda. I mean, what the ****. All these years on the board, and you don't have an ounce of objectivity in your blood. Let's be real, Urango is a lesser win than all of these guys. Alexander may very well be great, but the Urango win proves little.
I dont see how he is overrated though. Nobody is talking about him like he is beating Pacquiao or Mayweather. What gives? He is top 5 in the division. He is rated correctly.
Alexander knocked Urango out. Something Hatton nor Berto who are arguably bigger fighters with more power couldnt. Its not the caliber of fighter, its the performance. Thats something you need to understand. Alexander could have hugged Urango to a decision like Berto or Hatton, instead he was throwing hammers and knocked his ass out.
Obvious agenda? Urango is a former title holder and many here picked him to stop Alexander. Where have you been? Just because he's crude doesn't mean he isn't effective he's tough and can punch. He could very well easily beat all the fighters I listed: Khan chinny Ortiz Heart questions Holt chinny Maidana pick em fight both love to trade and Urango has a better chin.
