    This is a great fight. Much props to Alexander if he fights Matthysse next.

    Matthysse >>>> Maidana.

      Matthysse doesn't have the kind of style that will give Devon any trouble. But since he's the best junior welter currently available, props to Team Alexander for seeking out the fight.

          I hope though Lucas keeps the pressure on him to force Devon's hand
          He knows what he would have to do and I think understands his strengths and weaknesses very well from the way he fights on top of Alexander not being in a great place mentally at such a young age after his last 2. Mathysse's constantly pressure could bring alot of doubt to the surface very quickly and if he checks out mentally its over for him against a fighter who I wouldn't expect to let up.

            you would have to be complete IDIOT to think that this could be a safe fight for alexander whooohahahaha

            Matthysse is BETTER then maidana. people don't realize it because they haven't studied up on Matthysse. that along with maidana being overrated.....extremely overrated on this site.

              maidana and matthysse fought 4 times in the amateurs...maidana won 3 times and the other was a draw. and i do like matthysse and i hope he KO's alexander if they fight but i dont think hes better than chino.

                I agree that Matthysse is overall better than Maidana, but his heart hasn't been tested the way Maidana's has, neither has he showed Maidana's determination. Maidana wouldn't have been so patient with Judah. In that aspect I give the edge to Maidana, but other than that, I agree with Matthysse being better. We'll see

                  like he knew what to do with Judah and couldn't execute that until the very end?

                  had he forced Judah's hand earlier on it probably would have been his fight going away but he starts late and has to gain ground quick.

                  he does that with Alexander, Alexander will win in easy fashion.

                    Mathysse suprised showing boxing ability and stamina in the Judah fight. Not an easy task for Alexander if you ask me

                      I've never seen anyone eat Judah's left uppercut the way Matthysse did, if I were him, I'd jump on Alexander. Well not jump, but be more aggressive.
