Andre Berto should be ashamed with himself.

    Alexander > Berto

    Alexander is very talented, Berto is ordinary and overhyped by HBO.

Devon was landing cleaner, and many more shots but in a lot of those rounds were you like, damnnnnnnnnn that was a big shot? A lot of those combos weren't super effective and when they did land nothing really stuck out that much. In some cases when that's the case the judge will go with the man that landed the bigger shot because the other fighter didn't really separate himself from his opponent. It really isn't the right way to score a fight imo because it's a 3 minute round but boxing is still fighting and sometimes close rounds need to go to the guy that is hurting or landing the more "ooooh" shots on his opponent.

      Devon won the fight, no doubt but he didn't outclass the guy. Needs to sure up his D also. Right now Andre is the better fighter and has less holes in his game.
      devon wasnt hurt once. you cant just give urango credit for having showier punches even though hardly any of em landed. devon was the one being effective.

        I didn't get to finish the fight, recorded it, though.

        Maybe I'll watch it now.
        The stoppage is on youtube, it was a good win but Alexander didn't put anyone to sleep.

          Urango is strong as hell, very big boned hard to imagine a guy of his size shrinking to 139lbs.

          Second.. Even though Alexander was winning, he definitely looked like he was in trouble, and I think he might have gotten knocked out, but he landed a perfectly timed uppercut as he caught Urango jumping in. Before the KO, he was in the fight.

          Third.. The stoppage seemed early, even though Urango probably would not have survived.

            Alexander looked 5 star with that performance. He adjusted when things got rough and stuck with his game plan since the first round.

              Gotta agree man. That performance Berto put against Urango really threw me off. Alexander is alot better then I thought, what stuck out to me the most was how calm he was.
