    Devon Alexander vs. Lamont Peterson

    This fight should happen next IMO, if Alexander can't get the winner of Judah/Mabuza

    Its an interesting match-up.


    VS


    Can Lamont give Alexander two L's in a row?

    Or can Alexander comeback from defeat?

    I think its an even fight.

    Peterson can improve over the course of fight.

    Alexander seems to go down hill.

    Peterson was able to handle major adversity against Ortiz.

    Alexander: Ahhhh, it burns!

      Height, reach, mentality all favours Peterson.

      Not much to choose from in the first few rounds... Alexander gets tired, stops turning him around the 7th and Peterson takes charge.

      Lamont UD.

        Alexander by very close/disputable UD. 115-113, 115-114, something like that.

        What I want to see is Ortiz-Alexander. Battle of the southpaws. I've got Ortiz winning by mid-round TKO.

          IMO it would be a big mistake to throw Devon with someone of Peterson's calliber at this point. Bottom line he needs to fight someone that will allow him to get some confidence back.

              Yeah, Peterson's a good body puncher too, and is pretty good on the inside. Hell, Bradley didn't want to **** with him there, he knew it was Peterson's only chance of getting back into the fight.

              Might be a fight were Alexander starts well, but Peterson grows stronger as the fight progresses.

                Peterson dominates and most likely stops Alexander,Alexander is not a good fighter he is not smart is what I really should say and does not know how to use the gifts god gave umm...I really don't see him beating any top five and I really see him getting rock and controlled all night by Peterson..

                  Devon Alexander hits much harder than Victor Ortiz. He is also faster and has better accuracy in his punches. Alexander's defense is much better than Ortiz as well. Additionally, Alexander has far better courage than Ortiz.

                  I think Lamont Peterson would a good comeback win for Alexander.

                    Alexander wins a close decision in a pretty boring fight imo
