Eh devon isn't pillow fisted, he could have hurt khan but khan was just the superior fighter and better defensively than before. I don't think alexander is a step down from danny at all and I'm a fan of danny. If alexander and danny were to fight it would be a toss up for me.
danny is a step above in my opnion but not quite a "superstar" he kinda like MELO in a sense. Not quite a top tier star, but still clealry better than most "world" class comp (like it or not danny is the man at 140).

A step above? Eh i mean maybe a baby step. If danny and Alexander were to fight at 147, Alexander would have a great chance to win. I'm not a triangle theory guy so i won't get into common opponents and all of that. Alexander is a top guy at welterweight :manny:

Collazo was a good win. It was also a step up for khan from his previous comp at 147. He went from some bum, to collazo, to devon. I'd say that's great progression for a new weight class.

Agree to disagree breh :manny:

Collazo is the type of dude fighters fight after an L or when they want to test the waters at 147.

danny is a step above in my opnion

Agreed, Danny did what Devon was supposed to do at 140 when he fought Bradley.

Danny hasn't fought bradley though so who knows how danny would have fared after that. Bradley would be the best guy danny has ever fought. Let's be real here. Bradley would most def be the favorite on that fight.

Agreed about the Bradley part but in the common opponents they did have Khan/Lucas Danny has the more impressive victories and no L to be found, while Devon has a close decision and a loss.

I doubt danny would beat maidana though. I don't like using common opponents not only because of styles but because of when the fights took place. Danny is for sure above khan that's not debateable, but danny would struggle against Alexander and possibly lose, also would most likely lose to maidana. It's really a clusterfukk of theories based off previous fights.

Maidana is food for Danny imo come forward brawler, we've seen this movie before breh.

I could see how you would think Devon gives him problems especially after the Juventud fight but this depends on which Devon shows up the Porter/Bradley Devon that checks out mentally after a few rounds :usure: I wouldn't bet on a guy like that especially against a dude like Danny who always finds a way to win.

:scust: at me in here defending swiftset

Maidana has a great chin he's been more susceptible to body punches and i don't see danny going to the body to hurt him. Of course it matters which Alexander shows up but when he is on his game, he's one of the better fighters out there. All fighters involved have had multiple off nights, it's just danny has been fortunate enough to keep his 0. I think danny is a future floyd victim if he decisively beats manny.

What punchers have we seen Maidana up against at 140-147 :sas1: How do we know he has a great chin? Wasn't a blown up 135er in Broner backing him up those middle rounds? I vividly remember Ortiz dropping him and it wasn't with no body shot :sas1: I'd go as far to say that Lucas>>>>any puncher Maidana has faced 140-147. I'd pick Danny in that match up all day.

As far as Devon we both think Danny is the better fighter just I think it's another step while you think its a baby step :heh:

I think @ChocolateGiddyUp had mentioned something about this fight being on the horizon after Peterson, so I'll be reminding you of your pick come fight night friend. :mjpls:

Danny walks around at something crazy I think he'll be fine at 147.

Well ortiz dropping him years ago early in his career shouldn't be held against him. Even hopkins got dropped :yeshrug: .
I'd just like to see danny against any of those guys at 147 before i say how he'd do at the weight. I for sure will be rooting for danny though, I'm just a fan and not a stan of his.
