    really looking forward to this fight. two young undefeated champions putting it all on the line to be the man in the division, what gets casuals interested in the sport


    i can see it similar to the Holt fight, in the sense that Alexander will knock down bradely with a sneaky shot, but ultimately tim's relentlessness causes alexander to run outa ideas

    sorry, before the Khan Defence League jump on this, putting it on the line to fight Khan to become the only (?) fully unified champ in the sport today

    I'm inclined to agree. If Devon loses the first few rounds, I can see this being a landslide for Tim.

    I have Bradley winning it. He is a well rounded fighter. After rewatching Alexander's recent fights the biggest weakness I see in him is that he is comfortable throwing his combinations and getting out, but if somebody gets back to him he can't deal with it at all. Urango was starting to get to him and Alexander ate too many hooks. The knockout had everyone fooled, so they didn't see the weaknesses there. Kotelnik took all his punches on the gloves and when he responded, Alexander looked clueless.

    Bradley has the footspeed and skills to get to him. Alexander can't deal with pressure at all. He has a really poor defense imo. On the other hand, Bradley is very good at slipping punches. For this reason I have to go with Bradley.

    I rewatched the fight with Urango and u are right Urango was getting to him bigtime...however I think Urango is a tougher out than Bradley will be for Alexander...Alexander is stronger and might be faster...Alexander should win this

    You are right bud...however I think in a matchup between Urango and Bradley it wouldve been much different than how it was when Alexander destroyed him...Urango matches up well with Bradley IMO

    i just think alexander will take it,i could be wrong.

    i think alexander will come with the better game plan.

    he will use the longer reach.

    will use straight punches to open up bradley,who swings and has very wide punches.

    both guys arent super fast,both quite fast,both move quite well,but not quite like khan.

    both will be game,in not sure if it start and stays tactical and boring,or errupts into a war,a straight out slug fest.

    both dont have great defenses.and are fairly easy to hit.

    Great points I think Alexander also has the edge in the corner as well with the far better trainer
