If you think Khan vs Alexander is a **** fight, then you're not a true boxing fan

    You might be a fight fan, but you're not a boxing fan.

    You have to out boxers who can't and don't want to fight on the inside trading punches.

    So need for holding!

    Khan will lead because he feels Devon can't hurt him, and when was the last time Khan was in a boring fight when he lead? Khan will try to do Devon like he did Judah, but will have to deal with Devon craftiness as well.

    If you don't like seeing footwork, speed, and two guys throwing 3 to 4 punch combos while trying to out think each other... than you're not really a boxing fan.


    fight fan maybe, but not a boxing fan.

    It's just the people who are scared Khan will win and want to see him knocked out. They also don't want him to get the Mayweather fight.

    It's a good fight between two guys in lower half of the top 10 at WW.

    If the winner gets Floyd, then blame Floyd because he's the one with the power to make whatever fight he wants.

    Agree with both posts, Khan trying to do what to do Judah is what I picture here, and yup, Khan has many haters who don't want to see him succeed for various reasons. Anyway, yeah, I also see a very good fight by way of it not being easy to look good against Devon, and so if Khan can look against Devon, which I think he can, it once again makes a big statement about Khan's ability.

    It is a good fight for both guys. And it should be a treat for boxing fans.

    I hate when black people try to peddle their fav fighters in for good fights.

    Devon sucks. He's a running clincher. Worst style out there.

    Khan makes it interesting because of his chin

    Dude it's a **** fight just like Maidana Floyd 2

    When judging the fight on the merits of the stylistic matchup, accomplishments of each fighter and their rankings/ perceived divisional positioning, it's a good fight.

    However, when involving the narrative of a potential Mayweather showdown for Khan if he wins, or even Alexander for that matter, the matchup then becomes a substandard affair.

    It's still an interesting match-up, but not nearly as interesting as it would have been December last year.

    This fight is harder than Guerrero fight with a guy like Khan who has decent pop and combo power, not to mention a MEAN uppercut and a great chin. The response doesn't make sense here.

    Id like to think no-one wil say that this fight between 2 top ranked fighters, who are former world champions, in their 20s...is a bad fight
