Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2018-08-04, too much holding and too many interruptions between: Andre Berto and Devon Alexander: it gets two stars.The former Olympian and world Ww champion Andre Berto entered this fight with a professional record of 31-5-0 (24 KOs=77%) but he is not ranked as he hasn’t fought since April 22, 2017 when he was defeated by Shawn Porter (Shawn Porter vs Andre Berto); before this bout, in 2016, he had beat Victor Ortiz (Berto vs Ortiz 2).
His opponent, the former world champion in two different weight classes Devon Alexander, has a boxing record of 27-4-1 (14 knockouts) and he entered as the No.46 welterweight in the world. He suffered two consecutive losses between 2014 and 2015, against Amir Khan (Amir Khan vs Devon Alexander) and Aaron Martinez (Alexander vs Martinez) but then he beat Walter Castillo in 2017 (Devon Alexander vs Walter Castillo) and tied with Victor Ortiz in 2018 (Devon Alexander vs Victor Ortiz). Berto vs Alexander is the main event of the evening. Watch the video and rate this fight!

Official highlights
a pretty dirty fight
the result is doubtful, devon was stolen twice, with ortiz and berto
Pretty good brawl.
I thought Devon won the early rounds. Thought he did enough to pull the decision. Berto was pressing the fight in the later rounds though.
