Comments Thread For: Algieri Eyes Manny Pacquiao Showdown in November

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Undefeated Chris Algieri (20-0, 8KOs) pulled off the biggest win of his career on Saturday night, when he got up from two knockdowns in the first round and won a twelve round split decision victory over heavily favored Ruslan Provodnikov to capture the WBO junior welterweight championship at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.

Prior to the fight, Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum said the winner could very well land a crack at WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao in the fall. Pacquiao is scheduled for a tentative date of November 22nd in Macau, China.

I'd be surprised if he got it, even if Bob said he could

[Bronx2245]

Arum wanted everyone to boycott Mayweather vs. Maidana, but he would like to matchup Algeri vs. Pacquiao??? He better give JMM 50/50 or get Danny Garcia ASAP!!!

There you go! Bob Arum

if this fight were ever to be made, i am done with boxing.

[boxinggod101]

Holy **** please dont make that fight. Manny is almost done with boxing please dont put him with this guy. Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease no

[Czarczar]

Well

Whatever. I think Herrera did more to deserve the win against Garcia.

[Hougigo]

I don't see Bob sticking his neck out for a guy who isn't his and who's height and length could give problems.

Plus.... he's hardly PPV worthy....maybe you could see he's the first white guy in a while Pac fought, haha

Was Barclays packed last night?
