Boxer vs. Brawler can turn out horrible sometimes.
I know a lot of people don't give Robert Garcia much credit for his training, but that's what i love about his fighters is that they do not clinch as a standard means of survival
I think they both made their welterweight debut against each other? Devon is all wrong for Maidana. The thing with devon is that he is a very disciplined fighter, he will lull you into mistakes(what casual fans call boring), he is excellent at turning (keeping a fighter constantly circling - cannot setup power shots) What people have to realize in boxing is that the better fighter dictates the fight, whether its hug and hit? brawl? etc.. that is the will that is enforced ! fighters like Floyd/alexander/b hop etc. take your weapons away and so goes your aggression. Imagine if every time you threw a punch or a combo there was something coming right back just as hard but much faster than the punch or punches you just threw? and then to top it of for Mayweather and Bhop - they throw that Judo straight right down the pike with out any type of warning - these guys are beat by the 3rd or 4th round - remember the more you open up, the more punishment you take (that is why you see fighters out throwing but not outlanding, and their faces are all messed up - if Maidana opens up he gets hurt period (matthysse is a different animal - he is learning how to setup his punches)
