On Saturday night, April 16, inside of the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, undefeated welterweight contender Errol Spence Jr. scored the biggest and perhaps the most electrifying victory of his career in stopping former champion Chris Algieri in the fifth.

Spence (20-0, 17 KO’s) was simply to precise and powerful for Algieri (21-3, 8 KO’s), who never could get into the fight. Spence dropped Algieri in the fourth and twice in the fifth before referee Benjy Esteves Jr. waived the contest off.

On Saturday night, former junior welterweight champion Chris Algieri defeated a game Erick Bone over the course of ten hard-fought rounds inside of the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. With the win, Aglieri improves to 21-1 with eight knockouts and should be in line for a big fight in 2016, while Bone drops to 16-3 with eight knockouts.

Algieri was coming off of back-to-back defeats to Manny Pacquiao and Amir Khan and knew he needed to make a statement against his Ecuadorian foe. A knockdown in the eighth round helped seal the deal for Algieri, as the Huntington, New York native prevailed by scores of 97-92 twice and 95-94.

This past Saturday night, inside of the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, Amir Khan overcame a very courageous Chris Algieri over 12 rounds.

Algieri was coming off of a lopsided unanimous decision defeat to Manny Pacquiao in November and he was a heavy underdog. Instead, the sharp-witted New Yorker found a way to prove the odds wrong by putting up a very spirited effort and even catching Khan with some big shots along the way.

Algieri was dropped six times and whitewashed in his previous match, a one-sided loss to Manny Pacquiao this past November, but he showed his worth last night, often catching his British foe with stiff rights and counters throughout the match.

Chris Algieri says Freddie Roach’s trash talk is a sign that he is nervous

For the past few weeks, WBO junior welterweight champion Chris Algieri has made the Palazzo in Las Vegas his training base ahead of his showdown later this month with Manny Pacquiao.

Algieri (20-0, 8 KO’s) will face off with the Filipino icon on the 22nd of this month from within the Venetian Resort in Macau, China in an HBO pay per view attraction that has thus far drawn its share of varying opinions.

For the 30-year old Algieri, he insists his focus is something that comes naturally amidst the hoopla of his biggest fight as a professional.

“I don’t have to try,” Algieri explained recently. “It comes. I feel the focus and intensity increasing and that’s just how it goes in training camp. A little more eyes on the prize. The training gets more focused. You have no choice.”

As is often the case, Pacquiao’s trainer Freddie Roach has been relatively unimpressed by the challenge of Algieri, insisting over and over that the sparring partners he has in his camp in General Santos City, Philippines are all better than the New York native.

Algieri played off Roach’s remarks when asked for his thoughts.

“He’s nervous,” Algieri explained. “Simple as that. He’s acting out of character because he’s nervous. That doesn’t stuff doesn’t affect me at all. I’m not that guy. It’s not going to work on me.”

In closing, Algieri was asked if his showdown with Manny will come down to a battle of will or skill.

“It’s going be both,” Algieri stated. “It’s going to be a stylistic challenge for both of us trying to asset ourselves and then it’s going to be a battle of wills to see who can get it and stick to it.”
