Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Takes a Direct Jab at Mayweather's Credibility

[jso416]

Nice try, but no cigar. Brandon Rios survived Abril, and was coming of a loss with Alvarado at 140. Did Manny choose Alvarado (the winner)? No he chose Rios (the loser). The whole boxing world does not revolve around Floyd. I agree. There are a lot of opponents to choose from at 147 other than Floyd. Manny chose NONE of them. There are other opponents at 140 to choose from, Manny chose NONE of them. He chose Chris Algeri:

July 14, 2014:

Roach told me he recently talked to Pacman's promoter, Bob Arum, and Roach said that Algieri will get the nod to fight Manny.

"I told Bob, 'I don't like runners,' and Bob said you better find a way, that's who you're fighting," said Roach, the six time Boxing Writers Association trainer of the year.

Roach said he asked if there wasn't somebody more popular, or a better stylistic fit for the 56-5-2 Pacman, who last gloved up April 12, when he conclusively beat (UD12) Tim Bradley in a rematch tangle. After all, Roach offered, Provodnikov would love to clash with the Filipino icon. Nope, Arum said, according to Roach, that'd be a hard sell because he lost his last fight, to Algieri.

"I can't promote that," Arum said to Roach. "Bob likes Algieri, and he told me that's who we're getting."

***8220;I said I wanted to fight Manny Pacquiao,***8221; Khan said to mancunianmatters.co.uk ***8220;I offered him the fight to Pacquiao***8217;s team recently and they didn***8217;t take it. I got my team to speak to Bob Arum and we got nothing back, and they went with Algieri. He***8217;s a nobody. If Manny Pacquiao wanted to make big money in boxing he needs to fight big names.***8221;

It***8217;s quite likely that the Khan question was never put to Pacquiao. The decision on who Pacquiao would be fighting in November appears to have been largely one made by Arum himself, because Roach says that he***8217;s not sure why Arum chose Algieri for Pacquiao to fight.

Roach wanted to have Pacquiao fight his fighter Ruslan Provodnikov, but Arum didn***8217;t see how he could sell a Pacquiao-Provodnikov fight given that Provon***ov was coming off of a defeat to Algieri. Of course, Pacquiao has fought guys coming off of defeats in the past, and Arum had no issues with them. Pacquaio fought Joshua Clottey and Brandon Rios with them coming off of defeats. But then again, those fighters were Top Rank.

**** Bob Arum!

WTF? LoL.. You're running around in a fn circle jerk bro. You're here b*tchin and crying about Manny fighting guys coming off losses, but you're also b*tchin about Manny fighting Algieri instead of Prov lol.. You make ZERO fn sense. Chris Algieri BEAT Provodnikov who was pretty much next in line to fight Pac, therefore he EARNED the Pac fight.. What part of that do you NOT understand???... Arum obviously got tired of tards like you crying like women about Pac fighting guys coming off losses so he chose the guy that actually WON this time.. What part of that do you NOT understand??? Your quote by Roach saying "I told Bob, 'I don't like runners,' and Bob said you better find a way, that's who you're fighting," fn PROVES that Roach wanted NOTHING to do with Algieri because his style is ALL FN WRONG for Manny.. What part of that do you NOT understand???.. And your link to Khan is fn useless, Amir Khan is fn trash, even Prov would KTFO Amir Khan so go somewhere else with that crap and stop trying to hype up Khan just cause he's more then likely Floyd's opponent in May.

Provodnikov was robbed your diatribe was all BS just on that fact , same as Albril was robbed against Rios , Manny fights suspect guys all the time this is just another one .

Provodnikov was not robbed, if anything it was a close fight. Who gives a chit about if Abril was robbed, what does that have to do with anything?.. Manny and Floyd BOTH fight suspect guys all the time just like most of the so-called big names of this era (Rod Salka..). Difference is that styles make fights and Chris' style combined with his height and reach advantage is all wrong for Manny.

Again you full of sht , Floyd fights proven WWs , undefeated JMWs , guys that Manny refuses to fight without a CW , schools the guy that iced Manny like he was a bum , fighters coming of their best wins while Manny fights guys coming of there biggest losses .

Youre a bit brainwashed kid , you need to learn how read the facts and how to read a fighters current form coming into a fight , the hype is a selling of BS that you pac groupies swallow like its your last feed .

When the *** did Floyd ever have Credibility anyway? Floyd will never agree to fight this man and also with reasonable stipulations to do so. Floyd is a on the A side of Coward. Not gonna happen. Floyd is just a a big piece of chicken shlt!
