    So...today we learned that Khan cannot be considered a top guy at 147.

    6-6 draw.

    Khan didn't win this clear and neither did Algieri. Biased commentators will have you believe Khan won easy, but he got hit by a lot of right hands.

    This fight should go either way. Khan is so overrated, it's not funny.

    Khan just proved he has no business with the elites. He should keep fighting B grades and outpointing them with speed and experience. Thurman, Brook and a few others will destroy him. He's hardly a top 5.

    Algeri wo or a draw. Khan ran all night, and landed nothing. Chris landed the bigger shots, and had effective agressiveness.

    Let's be honest.. he was never hurt in this fight.. not hurt in the literal sense.

    We just know had bad his chin is, so when he get's hit real clean we say he was stunned.. but he never really showed signs of being shook at all.

    He did get tagged though... but he was never hurt.

    I need to watch this again to score it properly. Too many lapses of concentration for a fight of this closeness.

    Khan wins!

    Great heart and show by Chris Algieri, he won the event for sure.

    Khan needs to fight Thurman next. That will be the ultimate test for both fighters. This wasn't the performance we were expecting from him. He beat Algieri but Chris was making him work for it.

    8-4 Khan. He looked sh*t but a lot of people here were overreacting on their cards due to the expectations IMO.
