    Devon's natural weight class is 147, that's where his first 11 fight's took place. He only dropped down to 140 to fight for the title. Alexander was draining himself to get down to 140 those last couple fight's. Now that Alexander is back in his natural weight class he has the energy to fight every minute of every round because he's not depleting himself to make 140 anymore. That's what makes him a better fighter at 147, his natural weight class.
    Yet he still hugged every minute to avoid fighting against Maidana, and had a fight where neither guy did any fighting against Bailey. That's his two fights at 147. He sure as hell didn't prove what you are saying against those two.

      after reading 7 pages only one is defending Cowardweather.

      I can promise this, I will NOT be buying this fight !!!!

      you know we have fun on here knocking each others fighter but this is not fun anymore

      I have never seen nor heard of a fighter with Jr's skills and lack balls like JR

          However all the people crying about Guerreo and him not fighting anyone or being experienced can stop. Alexander is more experienced than Guerreo...

          Still a **** fight but then again nobody at 140-147 for the past few years has been good enough to beat Floyd anyway.

          If this is not just a ploy to hype Alexander, this will be a boring fight.
          Naw Mang yer WRONG about Guerrero

          The fight with Alexander is a SHI# fight

            Some people call it hugging and some people call it boxing, I guess you hate Carlos Molina and Bernard Hopkins too. All their fight's aren't exciting but they sure are effective. At the end of the day it's all about the W right?

              please tell me this is a head-fake of some sort..Floyd doesnt have much more fighting time in his career...would rather have seen Guerrero, Bradley or marquez part 2 before seeing this one....I cant see many fans viewing this differently.

                  No its hugging. Molina lands clean effective punches, hopkins too and both do a ton of hugging as well. Devon paws and hugs and then starts wrestling

                    Think that Mayweather would probably only sell about 500-700k PPV's @ Max for this if Canelo wasn't also fighting

                      Devon is horrible. Dude pulls his punches back before they even land.
