Is Chris Algieri an elite fighter or a bum?

When an experienced and knowledgeable poster like Chitown makes a claim such as that (no elite fighters between 100-154, save for Floyd abd Manny) the troll alarm doth sound!!

The best are usually those who are most subtle.

He is probably fishing Ducklerr mate (and he'll pop back later to see if he got a bite or three).

 

The champ is here!

Rico mate, you're fine Khan work would receive the attention it undoubtedly deserves in the British section (You would have Khan's rabid fans destroying their pcs, tablets and phones in no time).

 

You're probably spot on.

I was surprised more than anything that no one had taken the bait before I did.

 

Mate, many of these guys aren't just great posters who really know the sport..... they also enjoy the subtle art of trollery.

Btw I enjoyed reading your post and im sure chitown will too.

 

Haha well I hope he does enjoy it and forgives me for being a bit of an ass.

 

Chitown is almost always a very reasonable poster (it comes from having seen it all).

Catch you later bud.

 

he's neither. he's closer to 'bum' than elite though

 

I glad someone picked this up Khan was taking big power shots from bell with no effect to his chin, it didn't even stop him coming forward.. That shot in the 3rd landed on Khan's neck that's the difference..

Lol I mean Khan is looking strong at 147.. His chin is fine.. And when he really turns up at 147 he clearing this division out everyone is on the list..

Chris is going to take a beating of his life come May 29th Khan really a 147 fighter now.. After him he ready for anyone at 147...

 

I like his name and his looks.

 

:gayfight

 

"Is Chris Algieri an elite fighter or a bum?"

If for anyone you can ask "or a bum?" without bias, hes certainly not elite. To me Algieri is a potential B grade fighter who is yet to prove it. Guerrero, Aydin, Berto, Karass, Jo Jo Dan - these are some decent B grade fighters and Algieri needs some good wins to prove hes on this level. He will never go beyond B grade but he might go down if he loses motivation after making some decent cash on his recent fights, which happens often in this sport with this kind of secondary level fighters.

 

World class fighters are not bums. The term bum is ridiculously and irresponsibly used way too often. He is nowhere near elite, but equally nowhere near a bum.

 

He's a bum

 

bump

 

Neither.
