Chris Algeri’s trainer, John David Jackson, has warned that the former WBO 140 lb champion is ready to surprise a lot of people, especially given the good account of himself he gave against Amir Khan back in May in the wake of their hook-up.
The New Yorker (20-2, 8ko) is set to return in his home city on Dec 2 at the Barclays Centre, squaring off against Gabriel Bracero (24-2) in what Jackson predicts will be a bounce-back fight onto (eventual) much bigger and better things.
