    Khan didn't care about Algieri, he beat him with 3 weeks training.

    Algieri is on Khan's level. Khan is on Algieri's level. Take that as you will.

    I was surprised the way Algieri kept coming forward must of felt khan had no power

    That's the right style/tactic to trouble and beat Khan. Algieri simply lacked the experience in that style and the power to make it effective.

    And here's the excuse for a bad performance. If he only trained three weeks for Algeiri that's on him but to me your statement reads 'Khan doesn't care about boxing'.

    Khan looked bad in victory and was rocked almost every-time Algeiri landed clean.

    No, he doesn't care about Algieri because he's not on his level.

    I didn't see him rocked at all, and Algieri was putting everything into those punches.

    People have a bias when they see Khan get hit, they think he's hurt when he's not at all.

    nice excuse

    khan doesnt have the power to stop fighters coming forward. struggles vs orthodox fighters also.

    kell brook knocks khan out inside 10 rounds and khan knows it. avoiding brook and thurman like the plague.

    Stopped Algieri pretty well, lumped him up and decisioned him despite him being significantly the bigger fighter.
