    Devin "DIRTY" Alexander

    So I'm watching the Alexander vs Maidana fight through the 8th round. At this point, I've seen Alexander blatantly hit Maidana multiple times in the back of the head right in front of Steve Smoger after he called break.

    I've seen Alexander hit after the bell.

    Is this the same guy that was calling Bradley dirty??

    This guy.

    So Alexander won because of these blows to the back of the head then?

    I wonder why Maidana didn't complain about them.

    BTW, Dirty Devon Alexander sounds better. Devon Dirty sounds ******ed.

      So are you saying that Alexander wasn't blatantly hitting behind the head and after the bell?

      Alexander won the fight, I just thought he was dirty in doing it.

      It sounds like you have a problem with me thinking he was dirty. Is that the case?

        i think ur a wussy if u think that was overly dirty, but thats my opinion. lol

        and besides maidana is easily just as dirty as alexander in that fight.

          His father[Evander Holyfield] taught him well.

            How was Maidana dirty?

            There was a stretch in the 4th round or so, where Alexander landed 6 punches to the back of the head even after Smoger said stop/break.

            I don't think Alexander was bad as Mares, but he fought dirty at times.

            I just thought this was ironic, especially after he was calling Bradley dirty.

                in that fight, i'm sure he hit him in the back of the head a few times, but it's not something i remember. I remember his movement and boxing maidana's head off.

                i agree though, kind of a wussy thing to bring up. it was in no way, shape, or form a reason why maidana lost. people hit behind the head,

                devon's not known as a dirty fighter, so i'm sure the style of the two played a part in it.

                  The holding was what annoyed me. He didn't need to do it to win.

                    I know I'm gonna catch some heat and red-ks for this, but....I think a lot of black boxers fight somewhat dirty. Look at Hopkins- head, elbows, hits on the thigh. Holyfield with the head. Bradley with the head. Mayweather with the elbows. Alexander with the elbows and behind the head. Dawson throwing an opponent to the mat. Judah going low. There are a lot of examples out there.
