Why did Khan pick Algeri over any top ww?

[JWHardin]

dr.french Algieri was an ex champ with one loss to Pac.

Algieri is a top opponent and an excellent choice. Much better fighter than Maidana or freaking Berto the Bum.

Why am I not surprised to see Larry spending his Christmas here? And making the usual mentally ******ed threads. Sad.

Algieri was a guy that was coming off a loss, and was a ****ing light welterweight! Pacquiao knocked him down 6 times! Better than Maidana of Berto? You are the one that is ****ing ******ed.

Why choose Algeri who had just lost to Manny over any top 10 ww?

Two words, Your idol. Mr. Altavius Haymon.

Because the p4p no1 fighter was running scared from him.

Algieri did what Floyd would not.

Where do people get the idea that Khan is some stylistic threat? Sure he's fast, but he's not much else than that.

[Thread Stealer]

It was intended to be a "showcase" bout, an ideal opponent for Khan to look good against, but that didn't work out

[MrRolltide91]

To beat him better than manny did

[BrometheusBob.]

Why did Brook pick No No Dan & Frankie Gavin? Algieri would beat both of them dudes.

Who did Thurman fight in his last 2 fights? Collazo & Guerrero?

Who did Bradley fight? Vargas & Rios!

LOL

you see the issue isn't Khan...it's the whole division. ANYHOW it looks like Brook & Khan are settings themselves up to fight in 2016 now anyway.

The reason? Khan spent the whole of 2015 trying to set himself up for Floyd Berto Mayweather.

Luckily the rest of 147 messed around also so Khan came out of the year not looking so bad despite only fighting once and fighting a sub-par opponent.

I think that response covers pretty much all bases.

Larry gettin ktfo first post on some Jose Aldo type shiznet.

So Algeri is better than Maidana or Berto. I hope you are joking.
Algeri's only "win" in a big fight was Provodnikov. He got dropped twice and ran for 11 rounds. The decision was bs. After that Manny owed him.

Berto was a champ and Maidana beating Broner makes him better than Algeri.

lol...ok


Christmas is over....and an ex champ at 140 not 147 and how is it better then Maidana who was a CURRENT champ at 147?? explain that please

What can I say, the man really loves his son

[Box-Office]

Why did Floyd pick Khan's sparring partner over him?
