Could Chris Algieri be a good MMA fighter

He needs a ground game. He needs to learn jujitsu and wrestling because without those skills they would just take him to the ground every time.

You never know he has some skills that would transfer nicely to the cage, with his background in kickboxing and western boxing but the best base for MMA is wrestling IMO. But the TS said he was a good wrestler also at the high school level which I was unaware of but the high school level and the college level is like going from the shallow end of the pool to the deep end not to mention the Olympic level which is like going from the Earth to the moon. So I think it would all depend on how good his wrestling skills are or how good his takedown defense would be.

Those UFC guys would be queuing up to wrestle with Chris.
