    Im afraid I have to say he quit.... I said before the fight that the most mature fighter would win and I wasn't wrong.... Alexander is only 23, hopefully he will learn from this shameful experience...

        Devon Alexander quit. For sure. He could have gotten 5 minutes to regain his composure.

          Another sad part of this bout is the HBO commentators making it sound like it was a close fight. From the start of the fight, HBO people are announcing Alexander is landing more punches and it was hard for them to say who got the upperhand... These people should get out of boxing. They are pathetic in their obvious attempt to mislead the audience. They have been doing this for quite sometime already.
          I thought the same thing, i'm like what fight is Emmanuel Steward and Merchant watching??? Alexander is getting his *** kicked.

              First time seeing the fight on tv. Alexander quit and proved he is a *****. Kids just a **** talker and has no respect for guys that have done it the right way like Tim.

                That's what you get when you invest 4 million in this fight, and another guaranteed 3 million for a return date featuring these two guys.

                    He quit and he was showing distress signs before that too. A fighter trys to convince the doc he can continue, here i felt the doc wanted to let it go but Devon gave him no choice but to stop it!

                    I Kept thinking about Cotto vs Clottey - Miguel had a much worse cut and must have known he was up on the cards and in a real hard fight yet shrugged it off and did what fighters do - FIGHT


                    As far as Headbutts, Bradley dosnt appear to be doing these intentionally to mean tho he dont do anything to prevent it. Last night i felt they were 50/50 head clashes

                      Alexander wanted out. His behavior suggested that he wanted the fight stopped. The doctor really had no choice, as Alexander didn't indicate to him he'd like to carry the fight on.

                      Alexander was discouraged, and wasn't mentally prepared for Bradley.
