Comments Thread For: Algieri Eyes Manny Pacquiao Showdown in November

[KingTito]

I like Algieri. He seems like a nice guy, and he really proved himself last night. I knew he could box well, but I didn't think he had the mettle or ability to maintain distance for 12 rounds. I was completely wrong, and I give him respect. However, a fight with Manny is completely unwarranted. There's other fights for Manny to take, and I would be very disappointed if this happened. And to Chris, Manny is not Ruslan.

I don't think Roach wants to match up Pac with this guy. It would be similar to the first Bradley fight where its hard to look dominate against a guy like Algeri and the potential for an upset is there.

this will be the first Pac PPV that I would not purchase ..
this is a huge pile of bull*****!!

This messed up arums plans he thought ruslan would win easy and that he would be pacs next opponent ruslan is basic

Exactly. Promoters need to be more specific than just saying "the winner gets so and so." Nine times out of 10, a promoter will say that mindful of who they want/expect to win.

No arum said he think Algeri will win and might fight PAC like a week before the fight

Roach said he has no problem training Manny to beat him.

that would be a terribad fight. i see no reason for it to happen.

[Teetotaler]

Alvarado is war torn and Rios would have the same outcome as Provo. Matthysse would be the better option imo

U predicted a floyd tko win over maidana? Hahaha

Algeri needs to learn quick that Pac is not Ruslan. Its clear that Algeri wants the quick payout so he can get back to being a nutritionist at some mom and pops clinic.
