Most people on here have goldfish memories so only your last fight counts.
Anyone remember Chino getting outboxed by Alexander? How will he beat Bradley?

What I saw was Alexander clinching Maidana for 12 rounds so I cant say how a fight between the two would have gone. The day they actually fight we may have a better idea! :-)Comment

You have selective vision it seems. Alexander also won every round by punching Maidana in the head and hurting him on a couple of occasions. So much so that little Marcos cried all the way back to Argentina and almost retired

Why do people keep bringing this fight up? As if it defines his career. As if the holding didin't happen. As if it weren't Maidana's first fight at 147. As if wasn't ut of shape. As if Maidana wasn't motivated. As if he hasn't switched trainers, improved, and rejuvenated his career.
I mean come the **** on. Khan has been knocked clean out by a journeyman and his fans still think he is going to beat Mayweather.Comment

I think Chino and his trainers are very sensitive to people trying to apply the 'Devon Template' in the future. If the ref doesn't warn and deter holding I suspect Chino will give you all you can handle in the way of shoves, tape in the face, wresteling (, thumbs, concealed low blows, and butts if it comes it). Basically, I suspect he'd rather do just about anything that doesn't result in an immediate DQ. With him and his corner *****ing all the way about the holding. If he's at the risk of being Devoned again, he'll do whatever it takes even if it means points, IMHO. Heck, with is KO record anything that isn't a DQ leaves him in the game.I remember Alexander clinching every couple of seconds vs Maidana
Excessive clinching is illegal and is against the rules and should be penalized. However in certain countries fighters like floyd, ward, hopkins and alexander get away with it.
Real boxing is about who land more clean effective punches
Having said that, Maidana would still lose to Bradley
That's why I suspect Floyd will stay outside, keep moving, and work in ones, exploiting Chino's tendency to fixate and follow. Bradley, even 'old Bradley' would probably be more inclined to get into it with Chino. Both should beat Chino, but Tim's whiskers and skills might actually serve him better than Floyd's superior skills.
The most interest part of the Broner fight was Chino's trainer to Chino with respect to the jab, "If it's going to be slow, don't throw it!". So at least he's being counselled on how not to be countered to death. Better to keep your hands up, and head and feet moving until you can do something if you're just going to be countered to death.Comment

Bradley beats Maidana imo....as long as he doesn't go psycho he should beat a Maidana or a Thurman imo....I think TB got BHop-itus....I've seen symptoms but Maidana or Thurman can't expose TB's sickness....dudes with fast hands and athleticism will trouble TB just like they trouble BHop....thats my diagnosis on the Storm....not just anybody can't beat him though....don't get it twisted!!Comment
