Comments Thread For: Devon Alexander Eyes Ring Return on July Date

[PittyPat]

Been saying it for years - Alexander vs Berto, loser forced to retire from boxing. As in, just go away. No more of your boring ass. Make your money doing another job where you're welcomed.

I can't believe he beat maidana so easy every other big name when he steps up he loses. Hate his style 2 scrubs him and guerro should fight

He beat maidana easily because maidana isn't very good

[bronx7]

But he almost shut maidana out in maidana Floyd 1 maidana could have won 5 rounds four at least then he looks terrible inconsistent no pop

Alexander seems to be underrated ever since his losses to Porter and Khan. People seem to forget that Alexander was the only ever boxer to completely shut out Maidana, winning every single round against him. That's something both Khan and Mayweather couldn't do against Maidana. Alexander has plenty of skill and talent. It's not too late for Alexander to improve and make a comeback.

I can see Alexander beating Thurman

He should fight Berto or Ortiz

I honestly never thought about Berto/Alexander.

However, I think we'll get Thurman/Alexander. They are really giving "One Time" the table scraps. He should've gotten Porter, not Broner. I really hope Porter lays a whupping on Broner so Thurman/Porter will still mean something when it eventually happens.

Same.

Alexander is still a world class fighter and an Olympic medal winner. I think he'd actually beat Thurman. Just outbox him.

Its a good fight for both. I dunno, for some reason I don't think Thurman would be all that interested in it, but if he does take it and win in convincing fashion, it would be a huge boost to Thurman.

My problem with the fight is that Devon is coming off an L, Khan schooled him, and he has lost 2 of his last 3 fights. Devon is a good fighter, but he would be a step down for Thurman at this point. Devon is'nt even a top ten welterweight at this point. Though Keith's option would seem to be linited if he is going to fight in July and an interview on Youtube, he said Devon could get him some. So it may happen.

I've wanted Thurman Alexander for the last year...

Alexander will put up a better fight than Guerrero or Bundu.

[johnm is...]

I'm not sure I'd love the fight for Thurman. I think Devon can cause him some problems.
