I thought Algieri looked better and won that Khan fight.

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.

The question however remains: Did Khan actually beat a more difficult opponent in Algieri, easier than Mayweather was able to beat the low level Berto?
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.

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