This is a very bad match up for Manny, stylistic nightmare for him.
This is the opposite of Maidana vs. Mayweather, because Maidana is tailormade for Floyd he is a flat foot slow guy, who Floyd can hold onto.
Algieri is a mover, tons of stamina, he is a big guy, 5 foot 10, long reach, good jab, hard to hit flush. He is Pacman's kryptonite according to what a lot of Mayweather fans say, they say Pacman cannot handle boxers who move a lot.
This is a very dangerous fight for Manny, but Pac also gets props from me for giving Chris a chance, this is like when Barrera gave Pacman a shot at 126 from 122 pounds.
Pacman didn't do jack in 126 and was a champ at 122, and went up in weight to fight for the lineal ring championship against Barrera.
I don't get why some Floyd fans are trying to think this is a cherry pick or horrible match up? when Algieri has a huge chance to beat Pac, he is a bad match up for Manny given what they said about Manny having trouble with movers, and he is much taller and longer than Manny.
This is far from a cherry pick fight, a cherry pick is if Manny fought a tailormade opponent who will just stand there and let him tee off.
WE also know Chris is a live dog, he has a big chance to win and he will fight his heart out, just like he did against the much more difficult opponent in Rusland, Ruslan was tamed by Chris. Chris will give his all he will jab, stick and move and outclass Manny, if Manny wins I will be impressed because like many Floyd fans have said he has trouble with movers.
I would rather see Floyd Mayweather in with someone like Algeiri than Maidana or another slow plodding boxer.
