[jas]

It's a disgraceful fight

[Dat]

The only storyline I see here is that of an old snake who continues to hurt the sport with the wrong fights to satisfy his greed.

rich white college kid vs poor elementary level education filipino kid. thats not a great story line to u?

No, it's not. There are many rich white kids out there, and I don't particularly want to see any of the fight Manny. Algieri doesn't have a prayer and you know it.

***8220;He***8217;s definitely an option because there***8217;s a great storyline,***8221; Arum told BoxingScene.com. ***8220;You know, a college kid who has a masters degree [from New York Institute of Technology], a superb boxer, speaks well.

Those things are factors in a boxing match?

why not?? they bring up the story line about poor boxers from different countries getting a shot at turning their life around all the time. this is to attract people in other fields who can relate to it who might not be interested in boxing or is curious about it but doesnt wanna make that jump until they see something like this.

Look, Algieri's race and social status can't change the fact that it's an uncompetitive and uninteresting fight.

Like I said, I give Manny a pass on taking this fight, but stop acting like it's a great, intriguing matchup, because it's obviously not.
