    It's hard to notice someones lack of head movement when nobody takes advantage of it.

    Then when someone does... you start going, this guy needs to move his damn head!

    It's something I've noticed personally for awhile now.
    Well, I noticed it in the Witter fight, and thought it was was overlooked in the Urango fight due to the stoppage.

    So I agree with the last part.

      But Devon brings in the fans, there is no doubt about it.

      We don't know about OUTSIDE of St. Louis, though.
      How many showed up for Bradleys fight???

        Head movement while moving or eyeing up your opponent is one thing.

        Head movement with incoming punches is another thing.

        That kind of headmovement is instilled in you from an early age.

        You have a certain inclination to do certain things when you throw punches, or when punches come in... he's been fighting that way in over 300 fights.

        When he throws, his head doesn't move, when punches come in, he moves back in a straight line.

        It actually is hard to change because when you are in a tough fight... instincts come into play.

        Instincts are very hard to change, whether your 22 or not..
        Nothing is easy to change, but compared to other boxing skills its not as difficult. I will see how he does in his next fight before reaching a final verdict on him.

          it'd be better than fighting a guy like peterson that could take advantage of some of the things devon needs to work on.

          i'd stay away fro the following for my next fight if I were on devon's team:

          bradley
          khan
          maidana
          ortiz
          lamont peterson
          zab

            I noticed in the Witter fight as well, and I especially noticed it in the Urango fight.

            Prior to the stoppage I strongly felt that fight was turning into Urangos favor.

            I strongly feel that changing the way you react to incoming punches when you are at this stage in the game is incredibly difficult.

            Again, it's instinct based on what you've learned since you were a kid.

              What does that have to do with anything?

              Were we talking about money splits or something?

                Come on man. The only person I think he should wait a year for is Bradley. The other guys are faifr game. Zab Judah? Come on man.

                  I thought Urango was finding more success and the cards were tightening as well, it seemed like the pressure was getting to Alexander.

                  Though Don Trella had Urango up by a point, a bit hard for me to see it that way, TBH.

                    Thing is, they all have flaws. Bradley is no Mayweather.
                    I don't know what this means.

                    Bradley is a guy who Devon would have a real tough time with. He's active, very strong, sees openings, fast (hand and feet), hits hard enough, durable, battle tested has decent to good defense and can fight a gameplan to a t. not a good combo for devon right now.

                    I see that fight going the way of peterson for ya boy devon. he gets beat up real bad.

                      Agree completely... I was let down when Urango got caught, I thought that fight was turning into something special in the next few rounds.
