    Probably, although it was a closer fight than what the cards suggested. Alexander still had a decent chance of winning. I don't understand why a pro boxer would want to ***** out.... However it did look that way. It was a hard clash of heads though, who knows what underlying damage was there. I'll wait until I hear post fight reports before passing my judgement.

    Again though, I've watched a Timothy Bradley fight and head clashes have been pivotal. Whether Alexander quit or not tonight, his corner do have a point about this seems to happen all the time when Bradley fights.

    This after the first head butt he just stopped and started complaining the referee didnt even call break until after. Lucky for him Tims a nice guy and didnt attack if it was Maidana he would of launched a bomb at him.

    I think Khan is 4/5 inches taller than Bradley so it shouldn't be too much of a problem unless Bradley comes in wearing Elevator boots:yep

    Alexander must have forgot he was not in St Louis. Bradley and his people must be so grateful they did not allow this fight to take place in St. Louis because Alexander would have been given another gift decision.

    A statement from the ring physician says . . . "he asked Alexander to open his eyes (three times) or the fight will be stopped", apparently Alexander didn't open his eyes.

    On that . . . we don't know if he intentionally didn't open his eyes or he really can't at that point.

    Alexander was tippy tappin jukeing and really not forcing the issue, he wasnt going for it with any zest? and was acting, he just quit pulled a total ***** move, reminded me of a whining Dirrell and the Zab Judah ***** move vs Clottey......Cotto fought Clottey with a vicious cut and seeing Isreal Vasquez and real Warriors duke it out in worse conditions ......I dont really care to see Alexander again umless there is a chance for him to be Brutally KTFO

    Ring Doctor was worried that Alexander's eye was paralyzed.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    "He literally couldn't open his eye. It was more than a cut. I was worried it was his nerve and that his eye was paralyzed," said Dr. Pete Samet

    Bs fight. Bs crowd. Bs hype. Bs buildup. No f***ing undercard. Bs result.

    I was picking Bradley by UD, not Bradley by HB :patsch

    Give Alexander an Oscar, he was convincing enough such that a doctor believed his lying ass.

    Of course he did. Alexander the Cheat initiated all the headbutting tonight and he has the audacity to blame Timothy for his illegal tactics? The simple truth is that Timothy was too relentless and a better overall fighter than he is and he just could'nt cope with that fact. He was very well on his way to getting knocked out and was looking for a way out. Sure enough he asked to ref to stop it so he can rely on Don Queen's judges to save him. One of them tried to with that ridiculous scorecard of 96-95 but anyone with 20/20 vision could see that it was a one-sided fight but atleast the judges chose the correct winner. Don't worry because in the next fight, Timothy has him all figured out and will train harder and finish the job he was on his way of doing and knock Alexandra out in the rematch.
