    I'd be so happy if Algieri pulled this off, but it's a terrible style matchup.

      Provo is a beast and he beat him. Then Emmanuel Taylor gave Broner hell and Chris beat him comfortably without letting it become a fight of the year candidate.
      Really? Really? Algieri is better than Porter?

            No, but you do justify it. He is a Lineal Champ and not just a fringe belt holder.

            Fact is Khan is ducking Brook at the moment, temporary, but a duck nonetheless. I along with almost all Khan fans on this site admit to it. Some even rip him, but my whole point is that Algieri isn't as bad of an opponent as people make it out to be albeit there is an element of winding people up.

            Where as your Cotto Brigade dub this b.s. as "testing MW waters". How? By fighting a 2nd catch weight fight? Also it isn't Khan draining people out of their balls like Miguel who said he'd use every advantage against anybody at 160 lbs.

            Middleweight champion Miguel Cotto's first title defense will come against former titleholder Daniel Geale and there's a lot on the line besides the world title.

              When was the last time Khan fought someone taller than him? Prescott?

              If Algieri had any kind of power, he might have a chance because Khan struggles when he doesn't have that advantage.

              I see Khan winning but perhaps not looking impressive which would actually be brilliant cos it puts a spanner in the works for this seemingly inevitable Mayweather fight that he should not get.

                    I'll admit that trick Khan pulled in that gif is impressive... I've never seen that done before.
