Boxing: How would you guys grade Chris Algeri?

He made a fan of me Friday night. Slick, quick...

I thought he looked very good, especially against a solid guy like Taylor.

I've seen him a couple of times on NBC cards before this, but never against anyone good. I love that he doesn't neglect the body, his uppercuts are impressive and as you said he's got a nice athletic style in general.

Who he fights next I don't know, but 140lb is a deep division so I'm sure his people will find someone at least decent enough.

He beat a good fighter but I dont think he beats any title holder in his division. Skillwise hes sound and rounded, he does everything well but nothing exceptionally well. These type of fighters who round out there game but have no specialty can be out-boxed by a better boxer or bullied by a better pressure fighter

He is like a more athletic mauricio herrera. Just great all around skills, and his conditioning seems to be on point.

I think he has decent power but very good pressure fighters might give him trouble

I agree with the other posters here, however he seemed a bit too slow-handed and he also seemed like he would be too easy to hit by the elite in the division.
