Post-Fight Quotes
- "I absolutely thought I won the fight. The last few rounds I probably gave him, but I thought I outlanded him in the 12th. I thought I did enough to win. I gave him three rounds. My game plan was to be smart. Victor always has problems with people that are faster and have more ring IQ. I wanted to put him in the state of mind that he can't win. Victor is a former champion, and I knew he'd come to fight. He's towards the end of his career so I didn't think it'd be easy. But I definitely thought I edged it out," Devon Alexander said.
- "I thought the decision was a little off. I thought I did enough to win. The first few rounds were a little complicated. He's a great boxer and he was timing me just right. I wasn't leaving the line of fire. I started pressuring and countering him more as the fight went on. I think I took control of the fight in the second half of the fight. I wanted to box the boxer, but I had to make it kind of a brawl. He was going to outpoint me if I didn't. The eye was tough to overcome. I can't really see out of it. I really had to listen to my corner," Victor Ortiz said.
- "This was my first draw, and I hate it. It's a bad feeling because I thought I won, but we'll go back to the drawing board and get better. I would love a rematch. That's up to my team to see what's next, but I'll fight anybody. I'm a real fighter," Devon Alexander said.
- "A rematch would be awesome. If both teams agree and the fans want it, let's make it happen," Victor Ortiz said.
