    NEW YORK (July 29, 2009) –- Devon Alexander “The Greatâ€￾ knows the big knock against him: He’s young and lacks experience. But that’s not going to stop the 22-year-old from putting on a show for the SHOWTIME viewing audience come Saturday night during the first half of a world championship doubleheader.

    No good Cupey...no good at all. Every proper interview should always open up with THE question of all questions!!!!
    "Could you handle 2 raging pitbulls with your bare hands?" That's the ice-breaker right there! :kidcool:

    If he doesn't have a PCP related arrest on his resume, he's not worth reading about.

    All jokes aside, I'm not interested in seeing this guy fight. Not particularly exciting guy to watch.

    that's the biggest knock against him.

    Sure, Alexander CAN'T Punch, but he Does THROW Alot of Punches...& from what REED has Seen, he's Usually IN the Pocket...

    I can see your point. Not much talent there. Here's how you enjoy watching DA:

    You have to take it back to the old school. Like you're watching a FNF's event with a talentless guy and the only thing you have to enjoy about the fight is the fundamentals of boxing. Just pay attention to that.

    Yeah, I know it kind of sucks because on an HBO/Showtime card you're expecting a little more talent, maybe some power at least, but you just have to let it go and focus on the sport.
