Jacobs, Alexander And Now Dawson...

[RimmyDelicious]

...all lose and lose widely to foreigners in the last few weeks. I guess it isn't just the heavyweight division being sapped by the NBA and NFL. All those NBA guards and NFL safeties and cornerbacks...that's were all the great American boxers are! Yeah, that's it!

[Shattered Jaw]

People just get all wound up in the ´slick black American style´and think it´s unbeatable. They also get drawn into the HBO hype and BOOM... someone hungry comes out and undoes all that in a second.

I think it´s a lot to do with Mayweather having perfected the aforementioned style and his air of invincibility is extended to fellow countymen with a similar style (Alexander, Dawson etc) when in fact these guys are nowhere near as rounded as Floyd.

It was close....you know damn well it wasn't a wide win either way...it was close...Devon banked a lotta early rounds...

umm please dont put jacobs in the same category as those other guys.
not even close to being in their league.

imagine lebron james or dwight howard as boxers?

Alexander won the fight technically and I wouldn't say Dawson lost badly. Dawson lost but it was a close fight and you could tell he was the better man by the way he kept backing his opponent up and was probably going to knock him out towards the end. Chad is the better fighter but the better fighter doesn't win every time. As for Jacobs, he's a kid, a prospect so who really cares about that.

I would pray that they would be as lucky as Eddie Chambers and resume breathing eventually after nearly being killed by Klitschko's bombs.
