Alexander would beat Guerrero.

it's a toss up. I view the WW division this way as far as top 5 goes 1. Mayweather 2. Marquez 3. Pac Man 4. Bradley 5. Guerrero/Alexander There is no reason for Pacman to be ranked higher than Bradley, the Ghost or Devon right now, none.

Alexander is a damn good fighter, he has good handspeed, footspeed, he also has good stamina. His major flaws are his defensive deficiencies. The Ghost on the other hand can match him at long range & is better on the inside. But he does not have more stamina & Devon is a little faster. Both are 2 of the better choices to fight Floyd at 147, no matter how fans try to hate & blame them as if they could force Floyd to choose them. Head to head, right now, I think the fight is 50/50. I couldn't wait for Brook/Devon, that fight was gonna clear up a whole lot about both fighters. I can almost guarantee that if Devon had beaten Brook, (fair & square), people would have remembered he isn't some untalented bum.

I don't think Devon could lose a decision to anyone not named Bradley...

I don't think Guerrero is a vastly improved inside fighter since then,either.He still eats a ton of uppercuts and his work at close range is still pretty sloppy,unrefined and inconsistent. Guerrero has the ability and style to make a fight with Mayweather reasonably entertaining and not much else.

I tend to think Guerrero would outwork Alexander but it is hard to tell how good Guerrero is at 147 by beating the guys he did. We know Devon is ****, from his work at 140 and his two lame performances at 147. However, I'm still on the fence with Guerrero. Unlike most, I still have major reservations and think against someone with more bottle and skill than the ****e he faced in Aydin and Berto, he would struggle against a real 147 pounder. I just can't get the Salido fight out of my head. Yeah, I know, he got busted for some **** after it, but if you watch the fight, he fights the same as he did years ago, the same as he still does today... Salido that is. He wasn't faster, he didn't throw significantly more, he didn't have greater stamina, and it didn't make him more skilled. I can only guess that maybe it made him stronger...? It wasn't anything special that he took that won him that fight though. Maybe it helped, but he would have won it either way. Maybe it helped with some extra strength or something, who knows, but he was simply better than Guerrero. Guerrero struggled to land cleanly on him, Salido won just about every round and he wasn't necessarily out toughing him, but he was more skilled at what he was doing. Let's just say it gives me reservations and I'll hold judgement for a little longer.

Disagree. Not saying Guerrero is a great welter, just that he's slightly better than Devon and that he could impose his style on him. Most of all i hate Devon-Floyd because it would be a boooooooring fight, not necessarily because Guerrero have a much better shot.

It's a close fight but Guerrero is more determined, smarter, tougher and has better stamina so I think he finds a way to win. Alexander has the edge on handspeed but I don't think that will be enough.His fast punches often miss.

looks like pretty much everyone save a couple favor Guerrero in this fight, as it should be :boxing:

No I disagree tbh. Guerrero would either out box him from the outside or rough him up in the inside and win a decision IMHO.

Guerrero is better all around imo

Ahh who am I kidding? Devon sucks balls. Guerrero sucks too, just not as much. Man, boxing is really in the dumps. 10 major fight cancellations in just the last month, Floyd pissing about with two crappy opponents, Pac getting KTFO.... Whoever won this, and I still think it might be Devon, we'd lose out bad. No worries Benny. I know its hard not to defend Floyd's next pick being a fan of his .... but I commend you for being able to fight it and state the truth!!!

Guerrero would son the kid from st louis....

Of course you would....and we all know why!!! Let me guess you think it is because I'm trying to justify a Floyd fight with Allexander? I don't support this fight and I'd go so far as to say a part of me wants him to lose his next fight. Having a tune up fight is a part of the game, people didn't really bat an eyelid when Cotto fought Gomez or when De La Hoya fought Forbes. The pretense of it being a big fight I can deal with, they're in the business to make money. What I don't like is the negative influence Mayweather ( and Pacquiao) are having on the sport, I feel as though they have single handedly ruined the divisions from 140-154lb. Fighters are skipping divisions in pursuit of fighting Mayweather or Pacquiao, fighters ( Canelo) are taking soft touch opponents so that their future pay day isn't ruined and now fighters are pulling out of competitive fights in order to land that pay day. I'd be happy if he retired so that the new generation can thrive. I'm not a fan of this fight, it stinks on paper and I'm pretty sure it would stink as an event. I'm not a fan of Floyd v Guerrero either but I'd prefer the match up to Floyd v Allexander because Guerrero has proven more.

I tend to think Guerrero would outwork Alexander but it is hard to tell how good Guerrero is at 147 by beating the guys he did. So how does that same logic not apply to Alexander? His resume includes a JWW and a geriatric :dunno:

I think Devon's uppercuts do more damage then Berto did and Alexander throws decent combinations a fight on the inside gives Alexander a decent chance but if Guerrero starts picking off from the outside like Kotelnik did I see him winning UD or get robbed of a UD That's a good point, Alexander might get a dirty decision. Guerrero is rough though, I think he would eventually force Devon into holding on the inside.
