    you cannot in your heart deny he has the tools to frustrate pac.

    didn't people use to say pac struggles against guys that box and move and fight smart? that's algieri's specialty, and add to the fact that he will have a huge height and reach advantage come fight night.

    also add to the fact that pacquiao is far removed from his prime and doesn't have the same killer instinct anymore. provodnikov had some success with algieri because he walked him down and pressured him. pac isn't like that anymore.

        people are seriously underestimating algieri because he's unknown. give me a break. he is undefeated, champion, ranked #3 best jr welterweight and has all the tools to frustrate pac.

        you all will be surprised come fight night. you all will know algieri.

          then you're not a boxing fan because you can't appreciate interesting match ups.

              why isn't this fight interesting?

              i say you're not a boxing fan because you can't appreciate an interesting match up.

                  why isn't it an interesting match up in your opinion? other than the fact that algieri is relatively unknown.

                      Sorry - it's a quote from a bad cowboy movie. I can't even remember which one right now. Y'Know cowboy says 'we need to do this' Amerind replies .. 'Who's this [B]we[/B, paleface'.

                      It was a kinda catchphrase me and a group of friends used to use when we felt someone was being presumptuous in taking leadership over what the group would do before establishing a consensus.

                      The point being is that one needs to take account of audience when using collective terms like 'we' - 'We' might not always agree with your sentiment.
