    As much as people want to see it, I don't think the 140lb division get's an overall dominance from one fighter
    So many different styles able to expose others
    Bradley is the man to beat at the moment, but I could definitely see Ortiz getting the win against him
    Khan is technically the most skilled fighter in the division, but Bradley's pressure could be too much for him, Maidana isn't the best boxer but has a shot if Khan's chin is still horrible
    And who knows what Judah will turn up if he fancies it.

      I'm just saying...


      as far as Bradley's remarks.....I think Devon showed or better yet Kotelnik showed us that Devon has ALOT of things to work on...maybe the lights were too bright, who knows?!? .....even tho Devon is a fighter I think highly of, I have to agree with Tim here....if the 2 would fight next I would favor Tim.....as much as I like Devon, I dont see how he beats Tim or even Amir....like I said, maybe it was the lights or just a off night...time masters illusion!!

        I honestly dont think he is that great and has many issues... Urango was coming on in that fight IMO and got punished for it. Outside of urango he had not faced anyone... Witter was injured and coming of losses vs Bradley and kotelnik (got robbed)

        Other then that ? COrley is a decent name but was coming of a few losses in a row

          Tim talking like he put a whoppin on Abregu 2 weeks ago. His win was a little bit better but he didn't knock the shoes off of the guy either. Bradley is doing a lot of talking man, I can't wait til 1 of the Jr Welters ko him. As far as attendance goes, Devon had almost 10,000, how many people showed up for Bradleys fight???

            It wasn't a fluke.

            It's the defense part of his game.

            The lack of head movement.

            His offense always hid his flaw... but as his competition get better, he is going to get hit more and more.

            Urango showed us that with good pressure you can get to Devon... Kotelnik proved it.

            Not too mention great timing.

              Cory Spinks was also fighting on that card... he also has a lot of love from the Lou. That definitely helped the attendance.

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

              We don't know about OUTSIDE of St. Louis, though.

                Time for me to eat some humble pie. I've been hyping Devon like he was the second coming of Ray Leonard and my boxing degenerate (fan) skills are closer to casual than to diehard after Sat night. I'm not writing him off by any stretch as I still think he could outspeed and outpoint Bradley (tough fight though), but I didn't do enough homework on this kid to ride his scrotum the way I have. Anytime a fan, even one as blind as I, can see what's gonna land about 3 secs before it happens, it means Devon had little to no head movement and little to no "chin to chest tuck." Cunningham needs to stop worrying about the fancy 3 punch combos like he kept screaming, "1-2-5 jab, cross, lft uppercut" and place more emphasis on driving that 1 instead. I can see falling in love w/ the uppercut post Urango, but it was clear by Rd 4 that Plan B or C shoulda been implemented. I didn't see that at all which is a far cry from how a $May or a Ray Leonard would have dealt with that European style.

                  I thought Bradley looked good against Abregu. Very good.

                    Kendal Holt popped him pretty nice. That was a great punch.

                    I give it to Bradley weathering the storm, but his chin is "tappable"

                    It wasn't Devon's best but I see Alexander catching Bradley when he throws those looping punches.

                      I see Bradley tapping Alexander everytime he doesn't move his head.


                      Do you know how often that is?
