    Alexander definitely has lots of talent.....but

    Previously I picked Alexander in this based on what I have seen from him in his last few fights and the fact that Bradley has not really seen a fast handed Southpaw like Mr Alexander yet but I didnt realize how early in his career Alexander still is.

    Alexander has loads of talent, a very complete fighter for such a young guy but he has a very shallow pool of experience at the higher levels and Bradley is by far the more experienced fighter against a much higher quality of opposition. I still think Alexander's unique skills and southpaw stance could get him the W but I wouldn't put money on it?

    Taking a look at their past fights what leads you to believe either guy has an advantage?

    Devon has not really shown growth,he has loads of talent like ya said..But talent alone does not win fights on the elite level,adjustments and ring I.Q. does Bradley has shown to have both and some very good will and determination..This is why I see Bradley winning this fight,I also think the holes in Devon's game are big and I don't think he can correct umm in one fight..If he does he will have earned my respect and tbh deserves to be the num 1 fighter at the weight but I really don't see that happening..

        He's really stiff and fights in straight lines too much too IMO.

        You Larryx?

                Alexander showed me in his last fight that he is unable to adapt if his plan A doesn't work. Bradley is very good at making adjustments in the ring and he will force Alexander to have to make a change if he wants any chance to win. This is why I feel Bradley will win but Bradley also has this inner fire and determination that few fighters have........he will always find a way to win.

                  Wasn't sure, hadn't seen you around making threads in a while.

                  But yeah I agree. He lacks consistent upperbody and headmovement, he's just very tight and rigid. Kotelnik, and Urango to a lesser extent, were having success because of it.

                    alexander reminds me of jermaine taylor & oscar de la hoya. physical specimens in their prime but very un athletic. they dont have the fast twitch muscle fibers that elite athletes have.
