Algieri came prepared and fought out of his comfort zone, which caught Khan off guard
Khans gameplan wasnt for that sort of fight, he thought he'd have to be the aggressor, and chase Algieri around, but instead he had to fight on the backfoot, with Algieri doing his best Lamont Petterson impersonation
Algieri was trying to turn it into a dog fight, the old Khan would have bit back
Khans usual fast handed flurries were not there, he fought at a much slower pace, and surprisingly still had success. Algieri was giving as less room for Khan to work as possible, it was a good gameplan, but Khan adjusted.
