are you trolling or are you being real now?
I was amped for that fight. It was hyped as a big time fight. It was the #1 vs #3 fighter at 140. I regularly put upcoming fight posters in my sig (like Haye vs Klit for example and how do I feel about that bullshit ass fight?)
But Alexander has looked like SHIT in his last three fights. Tell me I'm lying.
Matthysse - straight up robbery, took repeated blows over and over. Like a mini Williams-Lara fight.
Bradley - didn't look good and quit after headbutts claiming he couldn't see "it buuuurns"
Kotelnyk - arguably lost that fight, some people thought it was a straight up robbery. Took repeated blows.
I like Devon as a person, he's a good kid and he has good people all around him. But he has not been fighting well lately and the robbery, plus quitting against bradley really made me change my entire outlook on him as a fighter and his stock has dropped dramatically as a result. Maybe it's time he switches trainers or something because he has some big time flaws that three people in a row are exploiting and he doesn't seem to be improving.
On top of that, Bradley didn't look all that great beating Devon either, it was a terrible fight to watch, his stock went down to me as well. He's a good guy too, just his fighting style is tough to watch at times.
Best of luck to Devon Alexander at 147.
