    Comments Thread For: Alexander Too Fast, Too Accurate For Soto Karass

    StubHub Center, Carson, California - In a crossroads battle of welterweight contenders, former two division champion, Devon Alexander (26-2, 14KOs), bounced back from his loss to Shawn Porter with a dominating ten round unanimous decision win over tough Jesus Soto Karass (28-10-3, 18KOs). The scores were 97-93, 99-91, 99-91.

    Alexander fast hands and movement was an obvious issue for Soto Karass in the early rounds. Soto Karass tried to make it a brawl midway through the contest and he succeeded in moments, but Alexander's faster hands were able to make it to the target first, and Alexander's defense was key as Soto Karass rarely blocked a shot. Soto Karass was often digging hard hooks to the body, but Alexander took the shots very well through six.

      It was nice to see Devon not hold every 10 seconds. A fun fight, and a pretty clear victory for him.

          Soto Karass seems like such a standup guy.

          Good fight.

                    Was it just me or did Soto Karass look slower than usual? Soto Karass is never in a boring fight but he gets hit way too much, he needs to think of ending his career.
