    Devon Alexander run off opponents

    Carl Froch reguarly gets lauded on here for his run off opponents and rightfully so but why then all Devon gets is being called a ***** by some 30year old who still lives with his mom.You may not like some of the decisions but give hime credit for fighting the best
    Last 6 After Maidana
    Maidana
    Matthysse
    Bradley
    Kotelnik
    Urango
    Witter
    Might not be as good as Frochs but still deserves credit for fighting good fighters and i dont like Chino fight for 10 rounds but Maidana's latest ever KO was in the 8th the majority are 4th or before

    When you keep losing fights, you have to fight good fighters to stay relevant.

      I do credit him for that, but then again one could say that's attributed to the judges having it in the bag for him.

          Thats a fair point but if it was the case of just surviving to the bell and winning some rounds then it wouldnt be wise picking two huge punchers in a row

            Because I'm angrier at the two robberies gone his way than I am about his run of opponents.

              Oh yeah, he fought them, but the record is a lie, he lost 3 not 1.

                What's ironic is alot of the same folks player hating on Alexander for his supposed "gift descisions" are sucking on Maidana nutts, as if he were never the beneficiary of a gift descision or two.

                The only difference is, Maidana needs gift descisions to beat washed up fighters like Morales & Chop Chop (who Alexander dominated a few years earlier BTW), while Alexander's disputed wins are against prime "elite" opponents. The circumstances of Maidana's disputed wins are FAR worse considering the difference in level of opposition.

                And if Maidana ever fought Matthysse or Bradley, he would get an even worse beating from those 2 than the one Alexander's gonna lay on 'em at the end of this month.

                  Well if he would stop acting like he won those fights I'd be more sympathetic towards him.

                    When did anyone mention Maidana?
