    Judges could go either way, Pacquiao's been screwed by bad judging before while Algieri hasn't

      The 2 worst robberies ever I believe were PPV and ended with Draws. I'm not to sure. Lennox Lewis vs Evander Holyfield 1, Pernell Whitaker vs Julio Cesar Chavez.

      I'm not sure if this other Robbery Draw was PPV but it was a robbery. Leonard vs Hearns II.

          I'm going with Chris Algieri getting the upset over Pacquiao, I think the height & reach advantage will help him with his good ring IQ. Gets a Split Decision, possible rematch with Pacman or a fight with Floyd.

            Good fight. But not close.

            Pacquiao will struggle for the first 3 rounds and then pacquiao will destroy him and KO him in the 10th.

            Algieri gets better as the fight goes on, but by the time the "fight goes on" pacquiao would've tired hm out.

              Pacquiao wins a decision whilst looking bad. I predict we're gonna hear many people say he shouldn't have taken this fight afterwards, solely based on how I'm expecting him to look.

                  I think Pacquaio wins but the odds are too tempting and I'm putting some cash on Algieri just for fun.

                    I had Provodnikov beating Algieri but i had no problem with im getting a decision. different judges, cant see Chris getting another "gift" back to back, taking the law of averages into account. Pac seems to also have improved little by little after Marquez, he looked OK against Rios, better against Bradley but not great.

                      A draw just seems more likely than an Algieri win. Algieri will deserve the win but the judges won't give it to him unless they are good judges.
