Comments Thread For: Alexander: I Took Porter Lightly, Fully Focused on Khan

DEVON ALEXANDER wants to destroy Amir Khan – and make his family smile once again. The American welterweight clashes with the Bolton battler here on Saturday night knowing a chance to take on the undisputed king of boxing Floyd Mayweather next year lies in wait for the winner. Alexander comes from St Louis and was raised just 20 minutes from Ferguson which has seen brutal riots rage in the streets following the shooting of unarmed teenager Michael Brown in August.

People should stop using the Bradley fight to judge Devon. For the few minutes they actually boxed, Devon clearly got the best of him. Forcing someone to dodge head butts is not beating them. Bradley was throwing himself head first into Devons face on purpose. He should have been docked big time.

Only going by memory but wasn't that fight essentially a replacement for Devon? It was around the time of the Brook fights were being postponed, canceled, etc. I remember thinking that the replacement thing would be a factor, in addition to the bullying style of Porter, so I picked Showtime. I tend to believe Devon in this case. No excuse for either after Saturday though, both are veterans now!

I'm starting to lean towards Alexander. May be good odds? I gotta' think Khan is the favorite.

See what other excuses Devon has got to say when Amir beats him. I guess something in the line of 'the accident that happened in Ferguson made him not able to perform at his best'...

Im not a devon fan but unlike khan he doesnt have soft touches. Devon has fought the best. The biggest punchers in the sport. His resume is on a par with the best in the sport. Hes not great to Watch thats why he dont get the cred he deserves. I believe he took porter lightly. He had his eyes on bigger fights.

Devon did quit against Bradley even though he was head-butted repeatedly and also Shawn Porter is really a middleweight who can still make WW that's why he was so strong against Devon. Somehow I think Khan will give Floyd hell if they fight, I got Floyd giving Devon hell if they fight, and I got Devon giving Khan hell when they fight!!
