weakest and biggest strength? I'll say the fact that is a basic combination puncher like Pavlik. Biggest strength besides speed is his footwork.
Strength is the accuracy of his punches. Also his chin is pretty damn solid. Weakness Kotelnik fight?? Before that fight i would have picked him over Bradley. After that im not so sure. Im still debating who i should put money on.... Bradley has the heart to overcome anything but then again skills can overtake heart. Damn it! i wanna say Bradley but something is telling me the Kotelnik fight was an Alexander full of himself.
A LOOOOT of people gonna be surprised tomorrow. Devon has had his flaws, and likely will get caught a fair few times by Bradley.. unfortunately for Bradley Devon has an iron chin. And with this kind of focus Deovn is gonna put it all together for us fans. Devon UD.
I hope you two guys are right. Martinez and Devon are the new breed fighters that I'm behind 100%. When Devon wins I think I'm going to go nuts! Anyways this fight won't be about power or speed or anything like that. Its going to be who can punch more and stay the freshest.
Devon's weakest point as a boxer, is that he's pampered. If there's one thing I can see throughout all the interviews and videos online, it's that: 1. His trainer is always with him answering his questions when there's media 2. He looks to his trainer to answer the tough questions 3. Whenever he feels uncomfortable about something his trainer steps in 4. He gets very uncomfortable when asked or discussing the Kotelnik fight What that tells me, is that if Bradley somehow surprises Devon and Cunningham's game plan, Devon will not be able to adapt to it. We saw this in the Kotelnik fight, which he lost, but was given a gift decision. That is one thing about Bradley that I like. He is able to adapt to his opponent very quickly, and choose the best strategy and execute it all on his own, without having to rely on anyone else. We saw it in the Holt fight, and we saw it in the Peterson fight.
How you think Devon is pampered I don't see it. 21 fights and he has fought Kotenlk, Urango, and Witter. Now hes fighting the best fighter at 140 lbs. And thats pampered?? Come on man. Berto has how many fights? And he hasn't fought anyone but Collazo.
Good points. I think Devon will look better against Bradley than he did against Kotelnik, but to what extent will depend on how he copes with Bradley's adjustments. That, for me, is the main thing which will be his downfall.
I think he means 'pampered', in the sense that Alexander has never had to deal with serious adversity. He's been in fights where his opponents have fell into his gameplan. However, this all changed when he faced Kotelnik last time round. He looked confused, and his inability to adjust should have cost him the fight. But I personally believe Kotelnik was a very good fighter, who was just too experienced, tough, patient and intelligent for Alexander that night. He's the type of opponent who Alexander will never look good against.
Read my post again, and then watch these videos: [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_RuYCCaGdk[/ame] [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKsjMZZilo4[/ame] You don't need to squint to see it :good
he can't fight inside, has no defense, predictable, doesn't go to the body, etc best quality is fast hands
What funny is that Khan has the same weaknesses Except for the body, which Khan does from time to time, as seen in the Maidana fight.
yeah he can't fight onthe inside that you are right. In urango fight he went tot he body some, but as much. He needs to improve on that. He has better defense than you give him credit for.
