This fight happens in what like the next 12 to 14 hours from now?
I thought it was going to be a weekend fight you know Saturday kind of one I really don't know why it isn't this is a very good fight to have.

I think Algieri will win some rounds. The body shots are going to take their toll on Chris though. I'm excited to see what Spence can do against better level competition.

I think Chris is basically a gate keeper unless he shows good here.

Algieri is not winning this. When you see odds as stacked as these AND the contestants are know quan****** - well its either surefire result or there is pre-ordained outcome

Algeri definitely has a great approach to boxing. Kid got more balls than most at ww

Well it's more than suspect...he's been dropped enough. There's a difference between those kind of guys and guys who have never been hurt much less dropped. To me a suspect chin means you could see the guy getting KOd...and it wouldn't exactly be shocking.

i have no idea how the hell i forgot about the 5 knockdowns with pac and 2 with ruslan, that totally spaced my mind hahaha.

therefore i agree with you, he reminds me of sergio martinez who always got knocked down, maybe even JMM who has never been knocked out but i can easily see him being stopped.

I'll be in the building to watch a future star in Errol Spence step up. I can't freaking wait!

Chrissie is a good slow white fighter with intelligence= RARE

Chrissie Milk White Algieri is a good slow white fighter who is good for TV boxing giving the white audience a chance for cheering on one of their own. Algieri made his fake name beating on a slower dumb white Russian in Provo a human punching bag and a miniature 147lb version of George Chuvalo. But Algieri is needed in boxing and in demand. But win a fight you italian pony.
