What is so bad about Pac vs Algieri?

[Bushbaby]

The fight itself is not bad. The ppv cost might be. But the fight is a damn good style contrast and lose able fight for the star fighter.

From what I hear they get a ridiculous amount of cash. So if the PPV does 250-350k It's not that big of a deal to them.

Since thats the case it should just be regular HBO, but bob wants to suck out each and ever last penny.

yea, i know he can't help himself...even with a potential flop, he's not gonna pass up the extra money

I think it has more to do with him taking a bigger loss in Nevada.

as in taxes?

This is a tougher fight for Pac than people think. I give a slight edge to pac, but wouldn't be surprised if Algieri can pull the upset. Pac doesn't have alot of options right now and I like this fight.

[Bushbaby]

its bad but its not really super bad, only thing thats makes it worse is the floyd fan vs pac fan situation, they all scoff at floyds competition so i understand the backlash... will it be at a catchweight???, rios coming off a loss was worse than anything IMO that wont be topped

Because the righteous Floyd fans never and don't scoff at Pacman's choices of fighters.

Horrible matchup for Pac.... I agree Natas

What's the spread on this fight?

People are saying 14-1 odds but I'm not seeing that anywhere...

As in crickets at the mgm after paying a huge site fee. Risky play here for Arum. I'm pretty sure they offer him good cash in Macau but not the way some make it out to be.

[ИATAS]

Ill be alllll over that shit.

Same here. Horrible stylistic match up for a fading Pacquiao. Definitely wouldn't be shocked if he lost. I wouldn't be shocked if he knocks Chris out either. That's why this is a solid fight on paper, imo.

I was against it but not so much now. Algieri doesn't have a big name and most thought he was an ESPN fighter being force fed to Ruslan. Well it turns out he's a damn good boxer and an undefeated champion. I know he only has one big win, but he looked great. I don't think this is the best fight, but it isn't bad. It's not PPV worthy, but neither are a lot of fights on PPV. That's just how boxing is today.

boxing sucks this year...the only fights i've enjoyed are Loma-Russel and Gamboa-Crawford
