    You came here acting like you were being attacked...
    Cool down fanboy.

    The TS just quoted Bradley. And it's easy to admit (when you're no fanboy) that he is right in saying Khan brings money.

    Fact is Bradley IS facing Alexander.
    Fact is most reasonable people won't mind Alexander taking an easy fight before facing Khan (if he beats Bradley, which i doubt).
    Fact is a won't feel ashamed or stupid if "your boy" wins it this saturday.

    I think Bradley is gonna win by a clear UD.
    Not because i WANT him to win.
    This is based on what i know of the two guys.

    Are you a boxing fan or just an Alexander fan?

    Lol wrong. Go check the rest of my posts in the past. I've said this many times i pick Alexander to win but i won't be surprise if Bradley wins. If Bradley wins, i have no excuses (if it's a clear win cause you know how judges are.) but if Alexander wins, i better not hear from Bradley saying he was soo ill.

    It's weird how they fail to understand this. Like If Alexander were to beat Bradley, the clear #1 in the Division. He should get on his knees and beg for a Khan fight. NO...he would be the rightful owner of the WBC,IBF and WBO titles. As Devon's trainer said: Alexander vs Bradley is a superfight within itself and the winner deserves Pac, Mayweather or Marquez. this is not a fight for the for the privilege to fight Khan" HBO offered Khan and GBP a tournement set up last year which Khan declined. He can't expect fighters to wait on him.

    I’m just making sure, Ray. Because I remember prior to the Alexander-Kotelnik fight, you were confident that Alexander would dispatch of Kotelnik in a far more impressive fashion than Khan did. You were, and still are, pretty enthusiastic in your critique of Khan’s box-and-move approach in his fight.

    And then when Alexander was getting his ass handed to him in his attempt to fight Kotelnik in a more daring manner, guess what he resorts to in the end? That’s right, he too began boxing and moving so that he could make it safely to the final bell. And even then he failed to do it in an effective manner, emerging with a gift decision.

    And you fail to acknowledge this. Because you're a joke. That's why.

    Does Alexander HAVE to go to Khan for his next fight to unify the division if he wins against Bradley? NO.

    But, SHOULD he go to Khan if he wins? Absolutely YES.

    I can agree about him taking a warm up fight, but he wants none of Khan after his shoddy performance and gift win against Kotelnik.

    Just because he doesn't HAVE to doesn't mean he shouldn't. Unification is the next logical step. His fans and the media will ask him about the Khan fight every chance they get, irrespective of Devon's own opinion on the matter.

    Bob Arum has already stated that the winner of this Saturdays fight, especially if they win in dramatic fashion would be on the short list to face Pac-man next. Don King was quoted yesterday as saying that if Devon wins he will make an offer to Mayweather to fight Devon.

    And that's what team Alexander are looking forward to. Now we know after Hauser's article that the winner of this fight(and loser) will have to fight whoever HBO chooses, for a 3 million dollar purse. If the winner of the fight doesn't get a B-side to a big PPV then the next fight will most likely be Khan if Khan wants it.

    2 things I don't understand about Khan fans.I don't know why Khan fans pretend that KIng and Shaw didn't offer HBO and GBP a tournement style box off between Khan, Maidana, Bradley and Alexander in which khan declined. And every post you guys make about Alexander you bring up Kotelnik fight and try to disregard him and his achievements. like of all the fans in the world you guys can't understand a young kid having his first fight at home and not having his best performance. You know it's not like Alexander got knocked out in 54 seconds or something. And yes i thought Kotelnik won the fight.

    Ring Master, let's be honest here, how many rounds do you see Alexander lasting with May or Pac ?

    Mayweather has already said on Amir Khan that he should get some experience under his belt before he can even think about fighting May.

    Bradley and Khan are the ones looking at reality here, as they both know that the real fights at 140 are between Khan, Alexander, Bradley, Maidana, Ortiz, and maybe Zab if he gets Mabuza's title.

    No one's getting a shot at May or Pac in 2011, not the least of which, someone who had trouble with Kotelnik. I don't make excuses for Khan for the Prescott fight. He got knocked out stone cold, admitted his weaknesses and improved himself. Devon, on the other hand, is in textbook denial :patsch

    Tim Bradley is truth and come the 29th Alexander is going to be schooled. Bradley seems like a top bloke too.

    This guy knows how to interview. Very honest with himself and also great at predicting fights. The only time i remember him missing a prediction was when he said Pac was going to TKO Margarito in 4-5.

    What was the reality of Margo getting a shot at pac? he didn't even have a license to box in the USA at the time. What about Mosley? The day after the Mora fight did you think his next fight would be against Pac? My point is you guys crucifying Devon for his mentality and pride. The kid thinks he is on the road to greatness, he is 23:lol: let him be. And Devon has stated it was his worse performance but that he will bounce back. There is no denial, it was a bad stratgey that's it. Not a chin problem or a wrong weight division. It was a 23 year old kids first time headlining at home and he got caught up in the lights.
