    I'm gonna say it. . . I'm really impressed with Algeiri's Performance

    Obviously still a long way to go, but compared to his Pac fight, and Ruslan fight (Only 2 fights I think I've seen of him prior to this) he looked good tonight.

    Can actually say I saw effective aggression, if he could sit down on his punches abit more, and work on setting traps better, slightly better footwork, and I mean knowing when to step into space, create distance and close distance etc with his feet. . . he could have some success at WW.

    He looked big too, bigger than Khan, He has the ideal physique to set up a good jab, but hasn't learnt to control distance properly.

    Obviously he's not elite level, and probably never will be, but yeah, just thought I'd commend him on his progression since his last fight.

      Il be honest as a khan fan i just watched it and i thought Algieri won 7-5, he implored a sort of lamont peterson tactic against khan, he got in some good body work in the fight.

      Khan did have some decent moments on the inside which shows hes improved in that aspect but Algieris tactic to move forward and fight inside i think threw khan off his gameplan which was to attack against a upright Algieri fighting off the backfoot.

      Il be honest i think khan would have serious trouble against lamont peterson if they was to rematch.
