Is Brook also hype?
K to the O.
I'd hesitate to call that fight.
The real question is: who wins the Thurman-Brook match-up?
Sure, relatively speaking and given what we know about the fighters, Algieri was more impressive... or exceeded expectation. Khan won the fight...
115-113 Khan, and I was in an unusually generous mood when scoring this fight because I'm trying to show less bias toward a certain style of work...
He impressed me greatly, it must be said. He showed great heart and desire out there and he'll have no regrets.
Maybe I'm slightly biased toward clean and classy boxing work - perhaps the game and aggressive Algieri would have been more to the liking of some...
Couldn't resist.
Had it 7-5. I don't see it as a draw at all, so even though 7-5 looks close, I think it was clear. Could see 8-4.
Khan is a very awkward ring general, and I think it can count against him in the scoring. He often doesn't look in control even when he is.
Yeah. I didn't score that round for Algieri either, but I get the argument.
Khan did land more in the eleventh but he was hurt. 7-5 Khan.
One of the best cat fights I've seen in a while.........
Virgil is losing his mind and is patronising Khan in the corner: "Stop throwing those silly @ss punches..."
