Algieri camp in talks with Arum for Pacquiao fight

[Kuyukut]

i'm still hoping that this fight will never happen in the very near future.

NO...

[HanzGruber]

all of a sudden the red brigade feasting on something they would hype if it was fraud who's on the other end of the issue.

This is where you're wrong. You think Floyd fans would hype a guy who nobody ever heard of and has one good win at 140 none the less

[WesleySnipes]

Does Arum even try? I thought we finally would get some out-of-house-fight...

[Jubei]

That would be ridiculous. No one will pay for that crap. Algieri needs to rematch Ruslan.

[GoToTheBody]

Pros:
White
Attractive
Young
New Yorker
Educated
Tough - has heart
Quality, enduring style

Cons:
No power
New to the game still

I'd say the pros outweigh the cons

Yep! Agreed

[ROSS CALIFORNIA]

This is ridiculous.

Manny fought Morales for the first time nine years ago.

How long did you guys think this was all going to last?

It's Arums job to make Manny the most money he can before he retires. After losing two fights back-to-back, Arum isn't going to put Manny in a position to lose again.

Manny was broke a few years ago. I'm not being condescending or having a laugh or accusing Manny of ducking anyone, but his prime is in the rear-view. At this point in his career the goal is to fight the easiest fights for the most money and as quickly as possible. Arum's cashing in on Mannys name and status (like he has been) based on all the great wars Pac gave us over the years to get the fans to fork over the cash.

It's just business and life, guys. Outside of another Marquez fight, they're going to be looking for Algeri type opponents as Manny works his way towards retirement. Dont be bitter, don't talk ****, just accept the reality; Manny isn't a young guy anymore and theyre not going to match him up like one, either.

[KRITKL]

This is a crap fight if it gets made and it will bomb if they try to make it a PPV.
With Pac at the end of his career i was hoping we could get some good fights with GB fighters. Guess not.
Fcuking sucks to be a boxing fan with all this BS.
FCUK YOU BOB!

[SN!PER]

Lol Chris gonna get his ribs smashed in by Pacman.

[jas]

i wouldnt mind the fight if algeri beat ruslan in a rematch but to have it now is ridiculous

i wanna see pac against the best available, he only has a few more fights left and is good enough to beat everybody until i see otherwise
