    Devon Alexander's chin?

    I know most of you guys hate Devon Alexander, but what does he have inside his chin?

    Matthysse hurt him and knocked him down, but with what he did to Dallas Jr, Peterson, Soto, Ajose...Alexander looked like he had a granite chin compared to those guys.

    Porter hurt and stunned Alexander numerous times with flush power shots, but never put him down. What Porter did to Malignaggi had never been done so easily. Malignaggi has been stopped standing (Hatton, Khan), but not completely annihilated like that.

    Urango if he had anything, it was power. He caught Alexander with flush power shots and Alexander took them like a pillow fight.

    Devon is an average power but his chin is up there with the best chins in boxing.

    Bailey hit him pretty solid aswell with the 3 or 4 punches he landed in the entire fight.

    Alexander can take a punch, clearly.

      Devon's more boring than watching soft core ****, but he has shown that he handle everything but headbutts.

        Yeah I didn't mention Maidana or Bailey because they did not tag him consistently enough. But his chin is his best asset IMO. He doesn't have much power at 147, his hand speed is good but can be negated and smothered like Bradley and Porter did.

          Devon definitely deserves the utmost respect as he has faced some inhumane punchers like Maidana, Matthysse and Bailey.

          Great chin and Chino's fans should stop whining and discrediting his win over Maidana.

              His head and neck is built like that of a neanderthal. It's pretty simple why he has a good chin.

                That win was a disgrace. Why should it be ignored. When clinch 100 times in a a single fight, it can't be ignored.

                  He has a decent chin but a lack of heart, defence and adjustment.

                    Porter and Bradley didn't have a problem and it was Maidana's job to neutralize it.
