Comments Thread For: Khan: My Opponent A lot Better Than Pacquiao's Last One!

[Showtime..]

He is right

Alexander is a level above Al...

Algieri is a horrible fighter..

one of the worst boxers i have ever seen enter the ring with a top level boxer

But What about Alexander when he fought Bradley?

[jacksonrr]

And the opponent before Algieri (Bradley) is better than Devon 'it burns' Alexander. Khan needs to keep focussed here, he risks overlooking Devon and losing again.

I agree with those who say Alexander is a better fighter than Chris. If Devon would have fought I guarantee the score cards wouldn't have been wide as the Grand Canyon against PAC, dangerous fight for Khan, props to him!

Never gets old.

Hmmmm! Geee I wonder why Pac didn't pick Alexander because him and Algeri are the same fighter. LMAO Pac fans will try to justify any thing pac does. WOW

Sorry but downplaying everyone's opponent is not good for the sport. You suppose to be boxing fans but will call a Top 3 Jr. Welterweight a bum. Does that really make sense to you.

And fans do it to every fighter from Mayweather to Nonito to even Kahn himself.

The guy has very little boxing experience but has displayed skills better then some fighters who have been fighting since childhood. A lot of guys don't make it to this level, a lot of guys would give up when there eye is swollen shut, a lot of guys would quit after being dropped 6 times. If you as a boxing fan can't respect that because of your dislike for Pacquiao then you're not a real boxing fan.

Now I'm calling it a day on this topic.

Hey is it my fault Alexander quit in the middle of a unification fight, or that
he prefers 10 round fights, or that he tends to throw arm punches after the 5th round, or that he tends to lose the later rounds.

If these things weren't true then I would lean towards Alexander but they are.

If it makes you feel better I think Kahn would beat Algieri quite easily, not as easily as Pac-Man, but easy enough.

With Algieris kick boxing background it's difficult to look smooth as a trained boxer should ,when your'e using your feet as balance they are mainly there as a range tool such as the traditional jab and it's hard to stop this thought which is so natural and of course mainly they tend to use their feet so the boxing skills aren't as effective but I think he's converted pretty good with his long reach are you sure that Khan moving forward in straight lines wouldn't be a sucker for that long jab and as awkward as he looked v Pac he does take some pinning down,so Khan easily ?

Amir Khans last 5 fights.

1. win - Luis Collazo
2. win - Julio Diaz
3. win - Carlos Molina
4. Lost - Danny Garcia
5. Lost - Lamount Peterson

Those 3 wins were against better opponents than Algieri right?

I don't believe he said that. I believe what he said was in fact what is quoted in the headline of the article.

Funnily enough.

I'm in Los Angeles, a fighters town... been looking for a bar to watch this fight in. Can't find one anywhere downtown or ********. Khan' s big draw is he? Not so much.

I was just trying to make Mr. Diggler feel better. But I would favor Kahn over Algieri because he tends to be the type of fighter Kahn shines against.
