I don't think it's a robbery. I can see why so many people thought Kotelnik won and I can also see how the judges had it for Alexander.

Not a robbery imo

How i saw the fight was rounds 1-4 were very tight those rounds could have gone to either guy. But from round 5 onwards was all kotelnik, Kotelnik won every round from there. I even thought alexander was ready to go in the late moments of round eight where he ate like a 4 punch combo on the ropes.

Man devon needs a lot of work. He's judgement on range/distance is horrible. I saw more than a dozen left hands that was couple of inches short and hit air or got blocked.

I think Bradley and Khan would beat alexander IMO. Especially Khan, as he would light devon up with his jabs. I know khan's chin is still china but his defense is very underrated and i don't see how devon would be able to get past that jab. As for Bradley, I think he would be too smart and too good for devon. And one more thing I know cunningham is supposed to be a well respected trainer but why the hell is he panicking like a little girl in the corner LOL. it was clearly affecting alexander. He reminds me alot of yoel judah.

i agree with your post 100 percent

i agree. always thought alexander was a bit overrated by the media and fans. He needs to ditch his trainer if he wants to step up. He was giving him to much information to take in and very hyperactive, then when alexander was slipping through the latter rounds he asks him to "relax". How da **** is he going to relax when you keep shouting like a mad man. However, we have to also the bad perfoformance came down to hometown nerves.

Can't argue with you but I thought Kotelnik should have been busier earlier!! Kotelnik landed cleaner but he fought in spurts, that fight kind of reminded me of the Jones/Tarver 1 fight where Tarver did good in the rounds but not enough which means Alexander better say the hell away from Kotelnik lol

If you thought Castillo won then you have to give that fight to Alexander if you score on activity alone even if the punches are getting blocked

can't have it both ways bro
