Comments Thread For: Khan: Algieri is A-Class Opponent, I Want it at Barclays

[Scipio2009]

So much for getting the Mayweather fight; no one is going to see Khan facing off against Arum's "Great White Hope" attempt as anything more than it is; Khan facing a light-hitting junior welterweight who's talent level may place him top 10 at 140.

Khan fights a guy who he has better skills than, a guy who's punch won't put utter fear into his legs, and a guy who is coming in with no momentum.

Rather than face off with Kell Brook early June (Wembley), to actually force people to demand that he fight Mayweather/Pacquiao, he's facing Chris Algieri, with his "big fight to look to" being a rematch with Danny Garcia [Brook/Hearn seem smart enough, to me, to push for/secure a June fight with Juan Manuel Marquez (on Showtime), emerging as a meaningful and marketable fight for Floyd Mayweather Jr after he routs Manny Pacquiao.

Khan is nervous to lose and miss out on that Mayweather/Pacquiao payday.

Disgraceful, embarrassing fight. Bigotry of the highest order.

"I'm looking at the top level. Mayweather, Pacquiao.. People on that level"

- fights Chris Algieri.

I think it's clear by now that he's shamelessly ducking Brook to fight his 5th non-puncher on the spin. It was already hard to be a fan of Khan after the absolute BS he has talked since beating two average welterweights. But this fight with Chris Algieri really is a new low. It's an absolute cherry pick.

How could anyone disagree with your comments but stay here , have fun as I do .........beyond belief ..lol .... Amir,Amir!!

Khan must've had too much exposure to radiation exams after the Garcia KO. He haven't made any sense after that.

Box-Office today responding to the "haters"

He beat the beast Ruslan & only loss to the fighter of the decade and p4p contender.

Very under-rated.

Will be a good technical boxing fight!

You gotta be ****ing kidding me. Please.... Do not pro-create.
