Pacquiao-Algieri Prefight & Postfight discussion & analysis thread

I think chris will clearly outbox pac.
Height reach boxing abilit nice jab and strong long legs.
I got chris clearly 8-4

Thats my initial thought but, Pac has overcome harder adversity.

Me Either...gonna be a boring fight

Algieri is gonna be on his bike pumping jabs and occasionally countering...we know that


Manny Pacquaio supposedly has great footwork but he isnt very good at cutting off the ring at the elite level.


Cat and Mouse....I hope Manny sparks him out and doesnt start another trilogy

TOP RANK has a great fighter and dont know what to do with him

[Inkanyamba]

They paying people to hype this fight up on boxing forums now?

How do I get some of that?

[swagman]

I agree. I think Manny may be in trouble with this fight. But I do hope Algieri wins but if I was a betting man I'd say Manny by UD or late TKO. It's just a lingering su****ion that Manny could get outboxed. And you bring up a great point about Bradley. But I don't think Chris is signed to top rank so if there was a robbery to occur I'm not sure which way it would swing.

Youre an idiot! Algieri makes Mayweather look bad. Hes athletic, tall, has good fundamentals, and has heart. Don't knock a solid boxing match.

[kardsufur]

pac will definitely not look great in this fight that's for sure. but we'll see if he still wins

[White_Knight]

This is the risk in taking crap fights. If you lose to a good fighter the damage done to your record is minimal. The opposite is the case when you lose to a non-elite fighter. Just imagine if Garcia loses to Salka, for instance: he will be the joke of the boxing world despite having numerous good/very good wins on his record.

[noStylez]

It's definitely a style match-up that doesn't favor Pac...the thing is though, the Pac of now is more cautious and more of a boxer than a guy that overwhelms you with punches and in and out movement... we still see glimpses of it but I think this fight will be a clear decision for Pac and also experience.

[jose.sooto]

It's amazing how pacquiao always ends up getting a pass for everything smh

bad style match up my ass, chirs algieri doesnt even play on the same league as pacquiao

manny should blow this guy out the water
