Alexander Alexeev to fight for WBO interim title on Jan 17

[Steak]

I have to admit, Alexeev's loss today was much more of a setback than Haye's loss to Thompson, for a number of reasons.

[The Hammer]

Yeah but haye really wanted to ko thompson! He tryed everything and gave a good fight ! If alexeev done the same to ramirez he would lay on the ground
!

Alexeev lasted more rounds before gassing against young Ramirez than Haye lasted against the age 41 Thompson.

Alexeev tonight looked in poor condition and simply could not handle the pressure Ramirez brought. Also his power was definetely lacking. It could have been an off-night but I would say he'd have to take his career more serious.

Some rebuilding of his confidence is needed.

Or just:

Alexeev didnt gas out! He wasnt punching like haye was against thompson!
If alexeev was gassed out he really needs to work on stamina!

I noticed in his recent photos he looked rather unhealthy, with acne. I was going to put him on in my avatar, but I couldn't find a photo where he looked okay.

In his fight with Talmage Griffis, he had the same acne and seemed to have the body build of someone with poor eating habits, although he fought well. He looked somewhat better against Azille, and looked healthy against Rob Calloway.

I have the feeling he may not be taking very good care of himself. He needs to find a girlfriend who's a nutritionist.

Did they televise Golovkin's fight, Bat?

Why is Tunney ducking this thread?

Yes they did.

Golovkin made short work out of his opponent so he's difficult to gauge, but he did look nice and tight.

It was less of a setback, because Alexeev lost an interim title fight to a prime up-and-coming fighter.

Haye lost to an old 41 gatekeeper who moved up to cruiser because at age 41 he could no longer make light heavyweight.
