    Highlight of the fight was listening to Devon's trainer fussing at him between the rounds

      Devon has looked worse and worse with every fight. I don't know if switching trainers would have made a difference(some say that was the problem, Devon's obstinate reluctance to drop Cunningham, a trainer seemingly limited); we'll never know, but tonight, he is just finished.

        That was an ugly fight. What happened to Alexander's supposed slickness? He decided to trade with a bigger brawler - where was the ring IQ there?
        Khan made Alexander look slow last December, which is understandable as Khan is very quick, but Alexander should not have been this slow - somehow he has regressed further.

              This was supposed to be a tune up.

                I was sure they will give Alexander 96-94...
                Before the fight, Alexander said he was in "thinker" in the ring...
                Deep.

                    Haven't watched it yet but if the guy got in his head with rough house tactics... How he beat Maidana and Matthysse ( which I hear is a robbery but still)??
