    Devon had a very impressive showing against Marcos Maidana. If he can build on that performance then Bailey is going to get schooled.

      Bailey is flat footed and relies on his right hand too much. There is no reason why Devon should not win this fight.

          Alexander looks more and more like Holyfield to me as he ages.

            I definately DO NOT want to see Malignaggi vs Alexander. Malignaggi is done and way past his prime. He can collect his gatekeeper paychecks and sail off to the sunset. I'd much rather see Alexander mix it up with some prime WWs like a Berto, Guererro, Ortiz, maybe even a Bradley rematch IF he can keep winning. Bailey only has a punchers chance.

              Bailey had a cold or something in the Boxing Lab interview, he sounded like he was ill but didn't actually say so.

                Maidana just isn't the same fighter at 147 so I don't look too much into that performance. But Alexander does look like he belongs at the weight now.

                    Damn Mac, where did you get your avatar pic, I hope you peeped that in person

                    Also, cosign on what you said about Alexander. I wonder if Devon would have as easy a time with Maidana as he did last time. Maidana looked real good in his fight with Soto-Karass. His footwork was better, he slipped punches, putting em in combination, I'm pretty sure he even used the shoulder roll effectively a couple times against the ropes. He looked good...
