Because he is better than Floyd.

Truth.
Didn't Floyd duck Alexander for Maidana? Or was it Guerrero?

Maidana improved a lot by the time he fought Mayweather. He beat the hell out of Broner who is better than Alexander. Maidana would have defeated either Khan or Alexander if he could have rematched them after he beat Broner in my opinion. Garcia taught him some good stuff and brought out the best of him.

Would you say Floyd is a better pure boxer than Alexander?

No, because Floyd is the better athlete, faster reflexes, etc. I would say that Devon is MORE of a pure boxer than Floyd, but not a better one.

i wonder if it had anything to do with the constant clinching...and what did floyd do in the rematch? constant clinching but clinching has no effect on fights right guys?

Who would have won between Floyd and Alexander?

Mayweather would beat him like taking candy from a baby. Easy work. A very one sided fight. Alexander stands way too far back when he throws punches so his punches fall short and hit only air. Fast hands don't do much good if the fast punches miss. Bradley easily beat Alexander and Mayweather is better than Bradley.
