Comments Thread For: Algieri: I'm No Gatekeeper, Can Spence Handle The Big Lights?

[soul_survivor]

If Spence is as good as they say he is, he should beat Algieri, preferably beat him well but let's not forget, CA is a big welter (if the fight is going to be at 147). He is definitely taller than Spence, I'm not so sure about the reach and CA has shared the ring with 3 terrific fighters. Spence with none.

You have to respect Algieri I like and admire him but he is not elite, Spence is, Chris has heart and fights anyone but he will be another name fighter for guys like Spence to build records on unless he matches smarter. He needs to fight more Bones and Taylors.

The word "elite" seems to be associated with anyone who is half decent these days.

Spence has talent for sure, but elite?..........nah

Good chance Algieri gets robbed unless he puts on a masterclass. It's a good way to kill a fighters confidence in the sport considering he also got those horrible scores vs Amir Khan.

I am rooting for Algieri

spence elite?? how

I know from the competition he has fought not yet, but he is on his way in my opinion, I may be wrong, hell I would be happy if Algieri won!

Agreed probably threw that one out there a little early, I guess a promising prospect would be more accurate.

Lol honestly i dont know how Algieri even became a gatekeeper, i dont even think hes at that level, what bright lights have u handle Algieri lol

He barely beat Provo which was really a toss up, he got embarrassed by Pacman, n a close but still a loss to Khan

[boxinghead530]

I really don't care who wins. I like Spence and I think Algieri is a decent fighter.

But Algieri questioning if Spence can handle the big lights is laughable. Dude got dropped 6 times by a fireless and a no killer instinct fighter in Pacquiao.
