    50/50 fight but i'm leaning towards alexander because he can stick to a gameplan at least while khan is generally a 4 round fighter. if khan can't overwhelm his opponent and is constantly getting tagged, he slips into mediocrity faster than he can throw those combos. devon isn't a huge puncher but look what diaz did.

    Although he lost to porter he showed a lot of toughness and delivered a lot of big shots. Khan vs porter would of been dead.

    Alexander has improved a lot since his Bradley loss, he isn't getting the respect he deserves IMO. Somehow the entire boxing world also forgets he beat the living crap out of maidana.
    it aired 2 years ago so go figure. no one ever wants to watch that hugfest more than once. you're implying like it was a mosley-margarito type destruction or something.

      Hope this fight doesn't happen. Alexander is an ugly fighter, Guerrero would be better.

      I think Khan takes them both though.

        I would rather see Amir Khan vs. Robert Guerrero and Keith Thurman vs. Devon Alexander.

          Khan is the only fighter I find myself actively cheering against. Just something about him. Can't stand the fact that he is trying to find the easiest path to Mayweather. Styles make fights, and he knows Thurman, Porter or Brook would pose a bigger threat given his weakness: his chin. But no, he wants to get someone he feels confident he can beat, so that he can just fight once and walk right into a May fight with Floyd. Hope it doesn't happen.

            Alexander

            Alexander has trouble with rough fighters who will mug him, not boxers

            Alexander has good foot work and speed himself so he wont be outclassed in those areas.

            If he makes Khan take the lead and he picks his spots he will have a great shot at winning.


            Alexander has a better defense, and chin. Is a southpaw to boot.

            A very good fight. 50/50

                    Khan by decision.

                    This is a very good fight
