    The reason i post this thread cause Not only Bradley and Maidana won't fight Devon but guess what? On a b-scene website Khan if he beats Paulie won't fight Alexander next. Khan said if he beats Paulie will look to fight bigger names like Bradley, Maidana or Ortiz (Ortiz? lol) but never once mention Alexander's name. Imo i think the reason Alexander is being avoided cause of the way he ko iron chin Urango. If Alexander would have lets say barely got by Urango then Khan, Bradley or Maidana will have no problem fighting Devon next.

    And what funny about all of this is Devon is clearly the number 2 best junior welterweight in the world that holds 2 title belts.

    Khan may be scared, but do you really think Bradley and Maidana are?

    Hell no.

    Devon just got recognition after beating Urango. I wouldn't give him the most avoided fighter distinction just yet.

    If he wants to prove that he's deserving to fight the best, he should fight Lamont Peterson, the guy Bradley just put a clinic on.

    Thing is, I doubt he can beat Lamont. I pick Lamont by decision.

    He holds 2 title belts. He's the second best fighter at junior welterweight but none of those top fighters at junior welterweight don't want to fight him? :rofl

    Why is he the second best fighter? Because he beat Urango?

    Urango is no Peterson, Bradley, Hatton, Khan, Malinaggi, Peterson, Holt, Maidaina, Ortiz, etc...

    Alexander ko Urango while Hatton wrestle Urango to a decision. Alexander made Witter quit while Bradley beat Witter by split decision (Witter was 34 when he fought Bradley and 35 when he fought Witter . So don't give an age excuse.) And the way he beat both of those fighters is far impressive then both Bradley, prime Hatton has done.

    But Hatton beat Urango, so what exactly is your point?

    My point is that Urango is no better than any of the guys I mentioned.
