Comments Thread For: J. Mayweather: Alexander, In Rhythm, Beats Thurman Easy

[Real Talk85]

Stop using Porter and Bradley as examples of why Thurman would beat Alexander. They fought wildy and borderline wrestled Alexander. Thurman fights nothing like either of these two.

Alexander is faster and has great accuracy and is easily one of the best counter punchers at WW. He beats Thurman 10/10 times. He has the chin and is a smarter boxer, I will take bets on him over Thurman all day.

Porter beat Devon with movement and smothering him. Thurman fights nothing like that. It would be Alexander vs Maidana all over again.

Thurman isn't similar to Porter or Maidana. Devon clinched for his life against Maidana, and I don't see him being able to clinch effectively against Thurman.

Alexander would be Holding all night long! And Jeff would call it master boxing.

How impressed would you be if Thurman were to stop Alexander?

That would be very impressive. Alexander's chin is one of the things no one can deny him.

I'd be pretty damn impressed too. Really, I just want to see Thurman tested.

Alexander and Thurman both claim that they both want the fight. So who is holding up the fight? Why are fans not so interested in this fight and seemed happy just bragging about how Thurman is ducked by everybody? What if Alexander is no longer available, who is there for Thurman that could realistically be easily made?

He fought 3 of the HARDEST hitters BACK 2 BACK..Im 100% sure he can take Thurman's power. Devon got the best chin at WW

While there's no question about Devon's chin, there's also no denying he still gets visibly hurt and pretty much gets mentally thrown off because of it. After looking at his match with Soto Karass again recently, Devon looked like he was hurt by those body shots later on in the match and appeared be in a panic at times (another problem he consistently has). These will be MAJOR problems if he's up against Thurman, who's good with body shots himself and (in my opinion) hits harder than Maidana, Porter, and Soto Karass.

I think Devon's only advantage over Keith is speed but in the end, he's still going to get caught and it may go downhill from there. I'm not saying he's going to get knocked out but he will be thrown off and likely in survival mode for most of the fight.

It would be pretty impressive, Devon has a very good chin, he's eaten shots from Maidana, Lucas, Bailey, Porter, Soto Karass, and Urango. Only Lucas has managed to score a knock down against him.

If Floyd is waiting for these young guns to put miles on & add wear & tear so later he can face them, kinda like he's done with Pac for years, then he confirms his legacy as the true BLADE RUNNER!!.., Yo Jeff!! Help him step up!
