Thread: Khan/Algieri is official

I was hoping Khan would make a bigger splash to improve his chances at fighting the Floyd/Pac winner.

not a big fan of either butt deff watch it

Algieri had milked his 15 minutes of fame to death. This is a dud. This really does nothing for Khan who seems like a guy hesitant to jump in the pool.

Dissapointing is in this case an understatement. Well done to @Fenster for calling it first though.

I will never defend khan again.

Yet again, another light hitter.

Khan should have fought a brook or Thurman.

Its just not good enough

Agreed and I'm A Khan fan.
Why go this route?
Broner was on a plate for him and better still was Brook

This is an easy win and I really don't see the benefit at all

This really pisses me off! (Excuse language)

Why why why take a fighter coming of a pathetic loss.

How on earth does beating algeri propel him into a better position of getting floyd or pac next?!

After a great win over Alexander he should have steamrolled Thurman and be the best place possible!

How on earth can anyone justify this fight!

Rant over!

Exactly!

Even a catchweight with broner or garcia or even bloody PETERSON!

Khan seems a bit like Haye. Athletic, overrated and pretending

Khan was on the right track to prove he wasn't overated and had great momentum from Everyone after the Alexander fight but now he went and spoilt it!

Amir will have little reason to complain if he gets passed over by Floyd/Pac later this year.

Khan wont reach the level he needs to be for fighting Floyd or Pac in time, they will retire before he get to that level, I read that floyd thinking of retire. not sure how proof it really is though

So true.

Floyd has one fight next (if we believe that) and this year was the time to keep on shining and he blew it with this one.

I believe khan has the best chance to beat floyd and he could have stayed consistent with possibly a first by knocking out broner or beating Thurman.

Seriously beginning to wonder if the punches have caught up to Khan, Algieri is a "class A fighter and has decent power". Its an everything to lose fight. Total head scratcher.

I'll take Algieri.

Where's the fight taking place?
