    Amir is 100% focused, believe me. He knows that he not only has to beat Algieri, but stop him if he is to have ANY hope of securing the Mayweather fight. Whilst I concede that Algieri is tailor made for Amir to look good against, having to stop Algieri (which is what is necessary) makes the task much more difficult.

    I don't see any way Algieri wins this fight. This will be a one-sided beating, that sees Algieri hit the canvas a few times and maybe get stopped.

    This is an embarrassing fight. What a scared Glass Jawed Fraud Khan is. When is he ever going to fight a puncher again?

    Fighting a guy who just got destroyed is a complete embarrassment; pointless.

    Well, if Amir beats Chris by brutal KO........... then I guess that puts him ahead of Manny anyway! So yeah, he does deserve the TBE fight if that should happen! :hi:

    As I've said earlier: This fight says more about the current state of Manny Pacquiao more than it does Khan

    If Algieri gets decimated and stopped...well you know...

    At this level Khan is normally only a flash knockdown type of guy. Unless it's one of his bodyshots...

    Doubtful seeing as Khan has never brutally KOd anybody in his entire career. In fact he has one KO to his name and that was a dubiously low body shot against Judah who was looking for a way out anyway.

    Very embarrassing


    This should be an easy fight for Khan, a guy with a lower skillset and no power that relies solely on speed. Khan should dominate Algieri.

    Khan has really picked the lowest hanging cherry here. If Algeri looked even halfway decent in his last fight it might be justifiable.

    Who knows though, Algeri might come out of his cage.

    But Algieri's da best, doe! According to some, Algieri should beat Khan with ease. IMO, Khan is taking soft touches until he can get that payday.

    People talk about Khan's power troubling Floyd, but Khan's power is average, at best.
