having spent some time watching these twos recent fights i think alexander would beat bradley. I just feel he would pose too many problems and win a close close ud. Its also quite clear that khan is not yet on their level. But i feel at the rate at which hes progressing he will be close in 12-18 months. With all the top guys being relatively young it promises to be an exciting division for years to come. I think we should lay off slagging any of these off for ducking just yet. Like i said their all young and coz these are highly competitive fights here we want to see them rumble now!! But patience (esp in amir case hes only just fought his first high quality opponent) we will see these guys fight each other. Along with ortiz maidana etc. I feel within 2 years most if not all of the top guys will have fought each other
Alexander will emerge as THE 140 lbs true champion, he has it all. He has the chin Khan lacks and more power. He has the power TB lacks. He has the speed and skills Maidana lacks. He has the heart Ortiz lacks. In other words roll up all of the top fighters attributes at 140 in one and you have Devon Alexander. A COMPLETE FIGHTER. I totally agree:good
It very much depends on how he deals with Bradley on the inside, he's got a beautiful hook and uppercut, and great movement, however Bradley is good enough to get inside and really work that body, and we have to rememeber it is a very young body,a nd its probably gonna be the first time he's tagged there, how will he deal with being winded?
yea The reason i think khan has a shot at bradley is coz of his lack of power. Dont get me wrong i think bradley would outbox khan but alexander has a far more complete arsenal. He would KO Khan He has power,chin and boxing skills, like you said :good And he is getting better with every fight.
I think Bradley is the better athlete but I lean toward Alexander beating him and being a better total package as a fighter too. For the reasons you mentioned about durability and power.
I agree, and all you have to do is look at the shot kendall knocked bradley down with and devon throws those types with regularity. Also, since i rate devon and tim about even in skillset. You have to lean towards a devon "W" because of his edge in power.
Bradley isn't without power but I don't think he's got what it takes to seriously hurt Alexander. He caught some good ones from Urango and I don't think he was phased or impressed.
Given the fact that he was able to outbox the ATG Urango, I may have to agree. It's not as if Urango was easily outboxed by Hatton or anything.
