    Favourite is a big adjective. Maybe if he continues to impress and actually starts winning. I'll give him credit but it takes a lot more to become one of my "favourite fighters". Very prestigious award lol

      As a neutral observer I believe he beat Khan by one or two points. So I give him credit. Chris has only been beaten once and that was to a pound for pound elite fighter. If Chris is well managed he could still do well in his career.

        Well, I wouldn't say unfairly. He got the Pacquiao fight on the tails of winning a questionable hometown decision against a fan-favorite fighter. And then went on to get completely embarrassed in a sham of a PPV event. What was there to like?

        But he looked real good against Amir Khan, and there's a lot of fights at Top Rank for him in the future. I'd love to see him against Jessie Vargas, Tim Bradley or Brandon Rios.

        (However, something like Algeri vs "Crack Pipe" Mike Alvarado is far more likely)

          If he did not Earn fight fans respect in the Khan fight then I don't know what more he has to do. Khan fight made me a fan and it is amazing what he learned and picked up from training with John David Jackson and that was from just training with him for some weeks

            Wow you are genuinely ******ed. Check my Youtube channel out (deathdevice1212) it's been there for like 5 years and it's all Matthysse, not a single Khan video and half a million views. The only time I've posted about Khan is arguing with you. You know nothing about me but I guess that theory sounds correct in your head. All you ever talk about is Khan so I think you need to take a look in the mirror bud before you ,claim the whole world is for Khan.
            A whole dozen?

            I don't need to check your youtube vidoes. I've seen you post here and it's all about defending Khan. It's clear as day.

            Yeah I talk about Khan - but at least I'm doing it openly, unlike you.

              Give me an example of when I've hidden behind it.

              You're just too simple to understand the difference. You think mentioning a belt is the same as saying Collazo is top 10 in the WW division because he's ranked with the WBO
