    You are right to an extent.

    I do think Devon's legs are a lot stronger at this weight and imo his movement has improved significantly. His stamina has improved significantly as well, but that could be due to the level of competition.

    And I assume you mean 1 that beat him because he did beat Kotelnik and Matthysse in close fights. I know people hate to admit it and the myth has grown over time, but the fights were close and arguments for him winning can be made.

      Umm... No. A one armed Berto gave Soto Karass a run for his money. Just think what would have happend had Berto not have had that injury?

      As suspect as Khan is, he is still a threat to anyone who prefers to box over brawl. We all know Devon is more boxer than brawler.

        Run for his money? JSK won that fight easily and was doing just fine when Berto had both hands in the start of the fight.

          not easily at all, he did hurt berto early but with one arm he should have got him out of there alot earlier than the last round and berto was still hitting him

            Cunningham is just taking a swipe at Khan is all. The guy likes the sound of his own voice.

            IMO Alexander Vs Khan is a better fight. The business aspect isn't anything that interests me.

            I agree Soto is probably more deserving..but as for the fight i'd rather see.

              He should have gotten him out of there earlier that's true, but Berto is no easy guy to stop as we learned in previous fights. And yes, he was still getting hit, but out side of the KD he was controlling the fight and wining the vast majority of the rounds.

              No fight is really easy, but JSK was in total control and outside of the KD should have been in no real danger of losing the fight (obviously the bs scoring had him in danger of losing, but really he shouldn't have been).

                Alexander did duck Khan at 140 already, it looks like they plan on doing the same at 147. They just don't like the style match up for Alexander and probably fear that Khan's style could nullify Alexander's in the same way it did Paulie's and Judah's.

                  I wish people would stop talking about this "deserves" **** as if it even matters.
                  He got dominated by Devon and stopped Karass and Josesito. Those accomplishments are still greater than Khans's (at 147),lol!!

                    Do not get me wrong bro, I'd much rather see Devon add Khan to his list of ko's. But Karas deserves the fight more. That's all I'm saying. In fact almost every fighter brought up in this tread has done more than khan at 147.

                    Karas
                    Maidana
                    Devon
                    Have all done more than Khan at 147.

                      Sounds to me like Team Alexander doesn't want to fight in Dubai.
