I'm not going into a in-depth look at both fighters styles but with the ease at which Maidana is found by his opponents and with the fight being held at 147; not to mention the Urango KO still in my mind, do you think it's possible?
Good odds them. Maidana can be as crude as anything and around the time of the Khan fight, I felt his power was being lauded too much but he is still a dangerous, spiteful puncher who can cause damage with sustained attacks.
Surely not to just win? You mean to win by stoppage? even still that's worth a fiver I reckon, Maidana may be able to bang but he's not exactly got an iron chin.
Yeah, I could see it. Maidana has been down and hurt before. I don't think its inconceivable that Alexander could put him down and keep him down. But this is one of those fights were it could go any which way and I wouldn't be particularly surprised. Except for a Maidana UD. Don't get me wrong, I could see Maidana outhustling Alexander for long periods and winning on my card, but the dodgy judges would probably end up giving it to Alexander. God, I'm so cynical.
Yes I have to agree that MM has to knock Devon out to win. It's kind of sad we are so cynical but it's true, the same can be said about Bradley vs Pac, there is no way Bradley will win on the cards.
Alexander is a very poor boxer considering the level he competes at, but he still has enough to win a decision over Marcos, especially with the judges behind him.
In short yes Morales had him wobbled , and his chin isnt the greatest , while not being particularly weak either Im not sure i fancy it , but its possible
Is it possible? Yes Will Alexander do it? No. Alexander only wins if he survives the distance. Maidana will be head hunting, I think he can get the knockout if he applies constant pressure. Alexander is soft and Maidana will bully him.
