Watched Alexander vs Kotelnik again this moring (while sober) my boy looked terrible.

Quit your snivelling, boy.
When Khan proves it, then you can put him on these guys' levels. Kotelnik is his best win, and I was saying that before last night. Faded Paulie and Salita (the JWW John Duddy) don't get him up to Bradley's level. Bradley's body of work >>>>>>>>> Khan's. It's not close right now. Anyone who knows boxing knows this.
And Devon has a clear edge of accomplishment over Khan at Championship level, too. Khan skated by Kotelnik where Alexander labored, but faded Witter = more threat than faded Paulie and Urango = much more threat than Salita.
Piece of advice, get Hamed out of your avatar - with all this bumsniffing of Khan, you're a disgrace to a guy who would fight anyone in his day (and do it with a smile, too).Comment

Why are people making excuses, like the crowd? His first title fight was in front of like 8k people. He's always been a big draw in St. Louis, this is nothing new. And its not like Floyd's never watched him fight before. Cunningham's strategy was just very poor, and once Devon saw that it didn't work he couldn't adjust against that kind of style.
To beat a fighter like Kotelnik effectively, it takes very fast feet and head movement, which he clearly doesn't have. Devon cannot go in, throw combinations and then slip back out without getting caught. I've been saying that since before the Urango fight, and people kept making excuses. Its funny how everyone's agreeing with the stuff I've said now. That's why guys like Khan and Bradley would have an easier time with Kotelnik, but guys like Devon and Maidana have a harder time. Because they have the footspeed/movement needed to dominate. Ortiz would probably struggle too, especially with that safely first style because he'd be trying to beat Kotelnik at a game he's been playing since Ortiz was fighting guys like Clottey's brother lol
With that being said, he had a bad night, and he'll learn from it, just like everyone else does. But let's not act like these flaws weren't always there.Comment

Alexander is a k.o waiting to happen.
Maidana and Ortiz would put him on ice. Pretty quick too.
I'd favor Khan to beat him up pretty easily as well as long as he doesn't get caught with any bombs.Comment

Alexander has the more accomplished record...and, again, laboring against a guy Khan skated by doesn't change that. That's one night and one common opponent, but it doesn't say anything for how they might respectively fare against future common opponents or against each other. Alexander's overall record at Championship level >>> Khan's.
Again, Alexander isn't a guy I was high on. But it is what it is, and he's more proven than Khan.
Also, stating that Kotelnik won a close fight -- as if a fact -- just shows where you're coming from.
If you want to bring Kotelnik into that mix, all well and good. I was just referring to the group of young guys, really, the under 30's who are each perceived as the potential future ruler at 140lb.Comment
