    I missed it, boxrec says he scored a knock down. Can't find the fight on youtube.

    The KD was on twitter last night.

    Straight right to the body.

    You can probably find it on the showtime twitter

    He looked pretty good although I only saw the last 5 rounds which I thought only one of which was mildly competitive, . They replay the fight on Showtime Extreme on Wednesday night at 11PM our time.

    Fight was tight early Bone started to fade

    The feet touched a little on the knockdown he wasn't hurt

    Algieri eye nearly shut and Bones nose bled

    Chris landed a lot of overhand rights many looked like fight Enders if he had power

    Lots of good infighting with no clinches

    Round 9 was the highlight both threw over 100

    Chris mixed boxing with punching and like the khan fight was aggressive. Really liked the infighting and his right hand work also doubled his left hook head and body very nicely

    I still don't think he's elite though he pushed Khan his face marks easy and while being slick if a guy is fast he can be landed on

    Chris like always was in phenomenal shape but showed greater depth. I'd like a Danny Garcia fight

    Chris looks decent under JDJ -- at least he did in the Khan fight.

    I wonder if the result would have been different vs Amir if Chris had some more time with his new coach.

    I dont think so, Chris looks better but I kind of get the idea that the Khan showing was his ceiling

    I think he did enough to get a draw, if he had 6 months instead of 2, he may have won it.

    I haven't watched it.

    I read that it was a very good fight with Bone winning a few of the first half and then Algieri closing out the fight strong. "Competitively entertaining," I believe is a fair assessment of all the opinions combined.

    All that was needed was for Chris to be let out of his cage.

    JDJ found that ket apparently
