    Neither Porter or Bradley out-boxed Devon. They bull rushed him head first and wrestled him into submission. How in the world could any boxer look good against that? Kell Brook beat Porter and it was still ugly because of how he had to win to deal with Porters WWE style of fighting.

    Devon is leagues better boxer than both, and he has some of the fastest hands at WW. Not to mention he is easily one of the best counter punchers at WW, top 3 easy.

    Khan is physically gifted, he is the fastest WW bar none, and for how scrawny he is, he actually has really good power to go with his freakish speed. But and its a big but, his offense sucks balls. He is an in and out fighter that doesn't pick his spots, he simply rushes in, plants and throws a hailstorm of shots and jumps out real fast.

    This is why he keeps getting caught by guys like Danny Garcia, or Prescott, and Dias who are slow. They hit him while he flurries on them because he simply does not pay attention. He just throws and throws until his combo is finished. Devon is much faster than all of these guys and he picks his counters very well. He will steam roll Khan in a blowout.
    Devon does not take to getting hit very well mentally. He backs off and his workrate drops.

    Kotelnik was an example. Watch Khan hit him all day long.

      Porter rounds 1-4 landed good shots on Devon he fought hard the rest of the fight.

        King Khan

        I like Brook but the reality is in boxin there are things that matter significantly more than having a belt. Resume and money a fighter brings, rightly or wrongly matter more. And Brook needs Khan not the other way around. Beating Porter means very little. Thurman is a waste. Knocking out nobodies dies not get you big fights. Yet again he is fighting a nobody in the ubdercard. Loser.

          Devon never been stopped and I don't see how Khan is going to KO him. Khan could very well win but he ain't going to KO Devon.

            Indeed Kotelnik, Machine, and Bradley showed Alexander can't handle getting hit. Especially vs Bradley when he basically gave up, and vs Kotelnik when he totally freaked out and had the same moves the last 2/3 of the fight. I think the Kotelnik fight was the most clear loss as for decision fights. Bottom line though, Alexander rarely has the imagination and boxing smarts to have a Plan B. And Khan has some pop and is fast as he!!. The only wild card I see is Khan's chin if he gets too confident. Just hope this isn't a boring grab n' hold fest.

                I've always thought Alexander was absolutely tailor made for Khan.

                He probably should have just fought him last year even if it meant getting cut by Alexander's alien head and ruining his promised fight against Floyd.

                People suggesting that Khan was scared of facing Alexander are looking pretty dumb already and will look worse come December.

                  I'd say that any potential blowout would involve Khan over Alexander. He's just plain better at an outside fight than Alexander is.
