    The Judah fight was fun because Floyd was the aggressor. That would be the case against Alexander too.

    I actually think it would be more exciting if he fought an athletic pure boxer type because he would have to force the action. The slow fighters and that he typically fights don't have the foot speed or athletic ability to be competitive.

    With that said you still have to earn the fight though and Alexander was right in line before losing to Porter.

      Neither does Berto, Porter, or Peterson. This is why this argument is ******, all black fighters don't fight in the same way, same goes for white fighters.

          I think Devon might be getting punch drunk. Race has nothing to do with it. It's all about putting butts in the seats and selling PPV's. The only Black fighter at WW that's a worthy opponent is Thurman. The down side is Thurman is not popular enough yet to get the fight.

            This another reason he avoids pac. Pac is known to have good footwork, fast fist and a lefty. Everything is ass backwards when he tries that shoulder roll. This is a nightmare style to floyd.

              If you take the word "black" out of Devon's quote he makes good points though.

                Lol...all these black fighters made Floyd think huh? No fight is easy one punch can end it all. It's funny all these fighters landed that punch but we're dominated please make some sense...FLOYD is that good and has a chin.

                  I'm not sure what minor % black Keith Thurman is but regardless of his race, which career defining win do you believe warrants this shot? Soto Karass?

                    What Devon said had truths but for the wrong reasons; Floyd doesn't fight Black fighters because there styles but other than Mosely none of them would have sold as good on PPV's.

                      Being athletic and trying too out box floyd will never work - Castillo and Maidana had the right game plan but came up short - Pac Khan Bradley all would get outboxed
