      I think he is a pretty decent fighter who's marketability outweighs his actual skill in some people's minds.

      I think Khan will beat him by a fairly wide margin.

      But that doesn't make him a 'can or anything like that.

        Yeah this right here. I do think Chris is getting a lot of disrespect here and I'm not sure why. It's like people think he got whooped by a nobody...he got whooped by Manny, no shame in that. I am picking Khan in that fight but I don't know why everyone is acting like Khan is fighting a complete no-hoper.

            He beaten Ruslan, Taylor and countless others.


            So my question is Chris Algieri an elite fighter or a bum?
            He's a "bum" because Pac beat him. You didn't know, everyone that Pac has ever fought is a bum, lol. He's good, much better than he typically gets credit for. I think he's good enough to provide Khan with a tough night. Will he beat Khan? Not so sure but I think he could potentially outbox Khan if he has been over looked.

                  Yeah, well this IS NSB, you know the deal. The best way to validate one win is to discredit all of the opposition of the guy that lost a particular fight or the guy that you didn't want to win the fight. Either way, he is far from a bum, not elite but not a "D-level" boxer by any means, in contrast to how he has been portrayed as of late.
