We agree on the certain opporunities, but by then Bradley was in his head. The highlight reel stuff comes usually when code broken fighters go desperate. Devon was busy with his basic puches not to get hit, don't think opening up crossed his mind under the circumstances, that's all I'm saying.
Cool, I agree with you. Come to think about it Bradley was throwing smart punches and I think his bodywork is what helped him win some rounds. He needs to practice more on outfighting because he could've beaten Alexander with just his bodywork and right hands alone. He didn't need to come in and try to flurry. I also believe that both guys lacked inside work and that aspect of fighting would've helped Bradley too especially since Devon seemed vulnerable in close
I agree with you. I think Bradley definitely got in his head and got him to fight a more basic fight. Ironically enough, Bradley got in Alexander's head by using his own. Devon and his corner were more concerned about the butts than the fight as it was unwinding. At one point, his trainer rags on the ref for 20 seconds during a break and then proceeds to tell Devon he's still whipping Bradley's ass easy. That's great corner work there.
I noticed at one point Alexander threw an uppercut out of desperation after a Bradley attack hurt him a little. I thought Alexander looked vulnerable and scared all night.
Devon needs a world class trainer, this guy he grew up with just doesn't cut it on a world class level.
Actually, Devon did try to throw uppercuts, they just didn't land like that fluke uppercut against Urango. I see you've been watching boxing for a month or two now.
Devon had no power in to effect Bradley he was a complete hype and when he ran to the corner to see the ring doctor the only thing that was burning his eye was a can of woop ass.
alexander has abandoned his great uppercut the last 2 fights, and the results are 2 losses. (kotelnik beat him, and i'm from st. louis) he just doesn't have much ring IQ. in a tough fight, he just resorts to volume punching with the same jab straight combination all day. no body punching or anything.
