What did you make of Alexander at the end Quartzy?

I was honestly disgusted with what I saw. He wanted out, and faked injury to get in stopped. I couldnt take my eyes off his eye after the fight, and his little painful blinks, which amazingly dissapeared after the result was announced.

Bradley's tactics were almost identical to evander holyfeilds against tyson in the first fight (or all of holyfeild career really ) Old school rough em up smartly. The way he cut alexander was almost perfect for the old school the naked eye just couldnt see it, but slo mo replays and bang, he butt him.

To be honest neither looked good to me. I dont think either would have a chance against a on game khan. He is just too fast, Bradley has a punchers chance, but on last nights performance and especially speed, he wouldnt get close.

Only found out about khan sacking Ariza on last nights show, what do you make of that?

Khan has got better speed than Bradley, but Bradley will pressure him and rough him up.
Bradley is also good at evading punches.

Be a very close fight.

Ariza split seems really odd.
Strong accusations on internet but who knows truth?
My hunch is that Khan's family are amateurs who are not doing the best job for his interests, and he does have some thugs around him too.

What I do know is that whilst Ariza is not the only strength and conditioning coach in Boxing, he is an excellent one who's positive work with Khan has yielded benefits, and I hope Khan has thought about what he is doing.
