Correct me if I'm wrong, but Alexander lost to Martinez AFTER Khan? How is this event relevant to the Khan fight who boxed Devon coming off a respectable tune up?
Khans win against Alexander looking a lot worse.

Broner has always been highly overrated, he could easily have 3 loses before the Maidana fight (from being outboxed) - Quintero, Ponce De Leon, Malignaggi
And it could just be that Floyd has carefully cherrypicked opponents for most of his career and when he fought the washed up version of Maidana which Khan virtually ruined, he was still better than a lot of Floyd's previous opponents.
It just serves to make Khan's win against a prime Maidana all that more significant.Comment

Did he ***.I kind of disagree Cinci. To me the win is still good.
It's like college football. You need to remember where a team was when they lost, not where they are at the end of the season and treat a win like they were bad the whole time.
Devon is on the downside of his career now. When Khan beat him, Devon was at/near his apex and had a lot of buzz and respect from the boxing community.
Khan may be overhyped. I think he is a fuccboi. but I wont retroactively downgrade the Devon win.
He'd just got bashed up by Porter. His wins just before that were against Randall Bailey and Lee Purdy.
He was always ridiculously overrated and almost absolutely tailor made for Khan. Just shows how dumb Khan is for not doing the fight a year earlier when it actually mildly mattered.Comment

Alexander has FACED solid competition. His best win is Maidana. He lost against unofficially to Lucas and Kotelnik. He looks like when the fight doesn't goes his way he mentally can't get his punches off. He is declining rapidlyComment

Khan shut Alexander down at his own game. Stood right in front of him and outboxed him. He didn't get into his wheel house and overwhelm, and smother him like Martinez did. So for that, he deserves credit.Comment

Yeah, so that was almost 5 years ago.He did all he could to fight Bradley even calling him out in public at fights, and Bradley straight up ducked him when they were both at the top of 140.
Also I would love to see him fight Garcia again which he would take in a heart beat but Angel and Danny have openly said they will never fight him again.
Khan is better and stronger at 147, and in my opinion would box a smarter fight this time around and beat Danny. Danny at 147 is gonna be a whole different story. I dont see him beating any of the top welters like Thurman/Porter/Brook etc
Danny needs to step up and take a real challenge, unlike the soft touches he's been fighting, Khan would be the perfect opponent at 147 for a good opponent not necessarily great yet
Danny Garcia came out just last week and said he would do it again, no problem. Angel talks some smack but he knows if it makes money it makes sense.
But probably Danny has bigger targets like Brook or Thurman.Comment

Wtf did I just read.Your logic is "Porter beat Alexander hence, it is better", correct me if I'm wrong.
With that said was Abraham sparking out Taylor better than Calzaghe beating Hopkins given Taylor>Hopkins?
Alexander is simple the more accomplished fighter, like Bhop is to Taylor, Devon had a straight run of: Witter, Urango, Kotelnik, Bradley, Matthys, Maidana & Bailey where he was 6-1, unified 140 lbs and won a title at 147. All within 7 fights.
After Porter you run out of names to talk about on Brook's resume and will run to Ring rankings for the rescue.
"numma one Wela weigh in the werld, juss ask Eddeh and Barreh, bey bey"
Are you thick? Hopkins got robbed against Taylor, Porter bashed Alexander up good. Absolutely terrible analogy.
You know that's how it works in boxing - two guys fight, one wins and therefore he's better.
Never thought I'd have to explain such simple logic to anyone. Further proves what a khanturd you are.
holy cow you've lost it good.

Are you Amir Khan's Dad? Honestly dude the way you talk you gotta be.Broner has always been highly overrated, he could easily have 3 loses before the Maidana fight (from being outboxed) - Quintero, Ponce De Leon, Malignaggi
And it could just be that Floyd has carefully cherrypicked opponents for most of his career and when he fought the washed up version of Maidana which Khan virtually ruined, he was still better than a lot of Floyd's previous opponents.
