Are people writing off Devon Alexander to quickly?

I think the way he couldnt make adjustments during the Kotelnik fight especially as he got tagged over a 100 times in the same place showed me he was slightly over hyped and still a little green.He also lacks an inside game much like Khan. Bradley on the other hand in my opinion is very versatile and one of the best if not best inside fighters in the game.Comment

It's not people writing him off, I think most people still think he can beat Khan, Ortiz, Maidana, etc, it's just that people thought he was as good as or better than Bradley, and the Kotelnik fight showed he simply isn't. Really, he was riding a hype train leading into that fight that I'm not sure how it got started.
That Kotelnik fight showed exactly why Bradley will not only beat Alexander, but beat him convincingly, maybe easily.Comment

It's not just the Kotelnik fight. He has never made adjustments. If his gameplan is good and works, you get a fight like the one against Urango, where Alexander's team knew the uppercut was there. People forget that Urango wasn't exactly getting blown out of the water in that fight and had started to make things uncomfortable for Devon before the KO.I think the way he couldnt make adjustments during the Kotelnik fight especially as he got tagged over a 100 times in the same place showed me he was slightly over hyped and still a little green.He also lacks an inside game much like Khan.

If Devon can't control you with his jab and set up whatever punch he thinks you are open to, he is lost offensively.Comment

Yup,he had his toughest fight against Kotelnik,who had a new trainer & fought better than he ever had!!he has better boxing skills than Bradley,he's just as fast as Khan & has a better chin than both!!Styles make fights,Bradley is an amazing swarmer,but he can be dropped,Alexander has the power & skill to do that!!This is one of the biggest fights of next year & I got Alexander all the way!!Comment
