Official Amir Khan vs Chris Algieri & Undercards Fight Discussion Thread

[Strategic1]

I had Khan winning but it was close. Was more surprised and impressed with Algieri.

Yes, Khan did outbox Algieri...but Algieri landed the few harder punches.

A heavier puncher would knock out Khan.
Khan doesn't deserve Floyd... He strategically has stayed away from big punchers.

I had it 7-5 Algieri, You could may be score the 3rd for Khan and make it even. I can't see how Khan won by the wide margins on 2 of those scorecards. That seemed excessive.

Any of you guys scored it a draw? I'm actually something of Khan fan, but I was really unimpressed with him last night and had even.

[-PBP-]

Wait people aren't happy with the decision? Khan clearly won that fight.

This fight was hella close, the British commentating is so biased. I had it 7-5 Khan those wide score cards are ludicrous, could have gone either way or a draw.

Khan looked badly overtrained to me, he looked terrible. Algieri fought a good fight, deserves a rematch as it was a good fight.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Exactly, it gets much worse when you come back from a major setback before it gets higher than its ever been. Khan looked bad but what he'll learn from this fight is a lot more than he would ever learn from an easy 12-0 like we're used to seeing in his last two. Khan looked bad but he clearly won 8-4 with some hairy moments.

He didn't clearly win at all.

That's what you get for ducking. Brilliant.

[IronDanHamza]

Just watched it.

Had it 7-5 Khan.

Algeri did much better than I expected. If he had any power he may have knocked him out.

No way khan was losing this Fight going in only way chris had any shot was if he dropped him or knocked him out i wasnt impressed with khan at all i scored the Fight close but the fact of the matter is khan was the favorite he had the commentators on his side both us and brit and those cards were ridiculous but amir looks very very vunerable and beatable lol i dont even see him beating broner i feel like thurman will kill him khan aint elite in my book

I had it 115-113 for khan. That 117-111 scorecards where terrible. Too much holding from khan. Seems like the only "improvement" I've seen from khan was that he's holding and hugging a hell of alot more than before.

Thurman obliterates khan. Bank it.
