He needs a heart transplant

yup.. either this dude wants it or he doesn't.

the guy has to know how to punch not throw a combo and move before the combo is finished that aint know puncher!!!.. the guy has to know how to get leverage twist hes waist and put hes back and rotate hes shoulders and learn how to punch through the opponent not stop when u make contact u have to follow through with whole punch ..this guy cant do that and even to a certain extent bradley is the same way...these guy's gota learn how to punch or they r gona have a very hard time fighting with elite competition.....

There is a difference between the two as punchers,both land pitty pat kinda punches..But Bradley is more committed to his punches,while Devon thinks he is going to throw a four punch combination with getting any damage(poor guy)Cunningham has to let him know he is in a fight you gonna get hit..He also has very poor judgement when to punch and when to move..He is always force to fight when he does not want to(in every fight except the Witter fight)and that plays with his mental state..He has some goods but they have not all come together yet and I don't know if they every will..

Might help psychologically more than anything.

If he thinks he is better prepared as a result that can only help, surely.

That said he is very one-paced. I'd think Khan and probably even Maidana would find a way to beat him. Maidana just by walking straight through him.

need more help with his defense and head movements and throwing punches from DIFFERENT ANGLES! He did is already RIPPED and is always in great shape...BUT yeah he did have stamina issues against Kotelnik as well as Bradley

need to add Pernell Whitaker to his camp like Zab did, to help him with his defense and his head movements

[sdcluser]

How about someone help him with EFFECTIVE jabbing and how to fight EFFECTIVELY inside?
Maybe take some pace off for EFFECTIVE jabbing so you don't need the conditioning.

[sdcluser]

How about some body punch for a change when the jab misses? You can have high punch (jab) volume but against an effective counterpuncher like Bradley who goes HEAD first you GOTS to have da inside game. This could said to a certain extent for Williams against Martinez.

[PRBOXINGCOTTO]

Devon your going to lose regardless who you hire you showed no heart against bradley

[chiguy91]

whatever needs to happen to boost his confidence back up or have him feeling ready for a fight, the better. as long as this brings him ready to fight on fight night, then im okay with it....hopefully he bounces back from his recent lousy performances
