In the event that Algieri loses to Manny, what other options do you think are open for him? If he wins, he has plenty of options, that's a given. But, I think there are some really interesting match ups out there for him even if he loses, either at 147 or 140.
Broner
Matthysse
Herrera
Peterson
Thurman
Berto
All peak my interest and I think he could be competitive against each of these guys. Not saying he would beat each, but would put on a good showing, I think.
Let's see, Algieri is listed @ 5'10" tall, w/ a 72" reach. Yet he had to run all night after nearly getting KO'd by 5'6" Provodnikov, who has a 66" reach. Manny is .5" taller and has a 1" longer reach than Provo. He's faster with his hands and on his feet than Provo. He's getting a little older, but he's still a world class fighter. He can get to Algieri, who doesn't hit hard, despite Chris' claim to the contrary. Chris even says he will KO Manny! So after he loses, what are the options for Algieri? I think the circus would be a perfect fit for this freakin' clown!

He gets the roided up version of Marquez and lands in the 3rd row.
Wouldn't be surprised if Pac/Vargas is next.
Bob gonna go off on how he fought 3 undefeated fighters in a row... plus Vargas is a Mexican from Vegas
Vargas could easily get that Vegas decision if that happened.
