    I thought Algieri looked better and won that Khan fight.

      Floyd has nthing that would trouble Khan that's why he ducked him twice and ran into retirement to avoid him
      khan was not comfortable in that fight.

        Agreed

          Mayweather was the one cut and bleeding more at times, it happens in boxing but against a low level Berto..? Sure if it was Algieri in there with Floyd you'd expect some cuts but against a c/d-level fighter like Berto, and to run all night the way Floyd did too..?

          Khan actually tried to do some harm to Algieri and damage him while Mayweather was content with running from a c/d-level fighter all night??

          Surely Khan's performance trumps Floyd's every time..

            A more important aspect of this argument is that Khan fought the BETTER opponent, who had him beat for height, reach and size. Khan had to fight small and try work his way out of that fight. I actually felt Algieiri won by a point but Khan actually managed to out jab him at times, which is normally the prerequisite of the taller fighter. Khan put in a good performance in a tricky fight.

              I don't agree. Put then in the ring and we will see, styles make fights.
              Who beat who? Beat them better, more decisive manner. Manny beat hatton more decisively, but easily lost to Floyd.

              Your question remains a hypothetical one. Let's test the hypothesis in the ring.
              By direct experiment.

                Why, just why?

                How do you measure that? What's the point of this question?

                  I agree I think Algeiri is being underrated here, i think he edges out Berto, but that by no means Khan would beat Mayweather, not now, not ever imo.

                    I think Chris beat Khan.

                      Khan looked average at times in that fight.
