    People are stuck on this headbutt crap because everyone made a big hype about it before the fight. I've watched the fight three times and not once did I see Bradley intentionally try to headbutt Alexander. In fact, twice in rd. 2 Bradley motioned to the ref about Alexander headbutting him, he didn't react like a drama queen. Obviously Alexander fell into the hype also.

      I really thought that Tim should have opened up on him more. I don't think Devon could have handled the pressure.I also think that people will be surprised when Tim fights Khan. I don't think Amir is ready for a solid champion like Tim.Amir has the tools and the better trainer, but he's never been taken to deep waters or to the level that Tim is going to take him.Tim is a much better boxer than Maidana and is way faster.He also knows how to set traps in the ring.He can fight going backwards as well as coming forward. He is simply an all around solid champion.The boxing world will come to find that ,like Alexander, Khan is not on Tim's level. At least not for now.

        I second that. Khan, like Alexander, is talented and he hypes himself pretty good, but he's not an A+ fighter yet. He might get there but for some reason I think his bark is worse than his bite. I believe that Alexander will beat Khan.

          Bradley looked good in the first round he landed some good body shots. I thought after the first round Bradley might really dominate, but Alexander did good in some rounds after that.

            Whats funny is the only reason u think Bradley caused the headbutts is becuz his reputation, but u can clearly SEE with ur own eyes Alexander cause most of the headbutts. Using ur eyes, not just reputation.

            Just becuz Bradley always comes out of every headbutt okay, doesn't mean he causes them all. He's just blessed with a hard head. I bet if Alexander had caused Bradley to cut everyone would be blaming him for the headbutt. Its always the one that doesn't get hurt that is blamed.

              I think Bradley is taking this win and going alil over board with that statement.

              Not on your level?

              I beg to differ.Tim didnt look that good either in the fight.At the time of the final head collision,Devon was doing pretty well boxing Bradley.

              The only thing that realy makes me think about Alexander,is why he in the biggest fight of his career,he chose to let it go to the score cards instead of sucking it up and continuing.

              Only Alexander knows how he felt.Wish i did.

                You mean Bradley right? It's gonna be tough, Khan's alot more rangier than Alexander, isn't as stiff, more athletically gifted too. I see Khan winning most of the early rounds, but I don't see him maintaining the pace, Bradley will adjust at some point though, hopefully early enough to still be able to win a decision. I'm not gonna let Khan's performance against Maidana fool me, I know he's better than that. It's gonna be a good one, probably one that will warrant a rematch

                  Dude how is the smaller fighter responsible for butts??This must mean either the taller fighter is leaning in or the other fighter is trying to clinch(both of which Devon was doing)Devon was responsible for most of the butts because of his clinching and trying his hardest not to engage,Bradley's opponents are bigger then him so once in their guard they have no choice but to clinch and Bradley does not stop punching..You can't ask Bradley not to be aggressive can you??

                  Like I said Devon landed two butts to start the fight off go and see for ya self..The butt that caused a cut to Devon was caused by Devon,he kept holding and trying to get off in the clinch so when he held Bradley Bradley kept on punching..Devon tried to punch while he still was clinching Bradley and that's why the heads came together watch for ya self..

                  The ref has the best view of this fight and I believe Garza was a straight shooter,if Bradley was intentionally butting he would have had points deducted..Bottom line just deal with the fact Bradley dominated Devon and made him look like his *****..

                    I totally disagree with you,Bradley showed that Devon was not on his level and outclassed him..The only reason why people did not like this fight was because Alexander was scared to take risk..Bradley was the cause of excitement and boxing skills while Devon looked scared to exchange..That was because Bradley was tagging his ass every time they did..Bradley did show Devon was not on his level in noway,I don't see the samething happening with Khan but I do see Timmy winning that fight as well..

                      If I were Marquez, I would want Tim Bradley right now.

                      Marquez can exploit the sometimes reckless Bradley's mistakes. And Marquez is taller. Best opportunity to win a fourth division title, I would favor Marquez to win slightly.
