    hahahahahhahahahahahahaha
    When I say it's a bad fight for Pacquaio, I mean stylistically. Like I don't think it will be an easy fight for him. I think it'll be quite tough, a lot tougher than people will expect.

    And no, many boxing fans didn't say Pacquaio vs. Provodnikov would be a good fight. That fight was suggested through Top Rank PR, because again, Top Rank has a very limited stable of fighters. So all along, it was going to be Provodnikov, Algieri, Vargas, etc.

      Algieri will probably win.

        no you didn't and yes i do.

        repeated knockdowns??? hahahahahahah if a strong, prime, aggressive pressure fighter and swarmer couldn't knockdown algieri several times then what chance does a past prime, slower, and far less aggressive boxer-puncher like manny stand?

        you and the rest of the doubters are so completely lost.

          I don't think Manny would have of a problem with any style as long as his legs are still decent and he's agressive..I'm not debating that it's not a mismatch on paper but every fighter has to get that one big win to launch them to the next level and it's easy to overlook someone with only one or 2 good wins on their record.
          You just never know what could happen. I don't think we expected Maidana to give Floyd trouble the first time. I thought he'd win 11 out of 12 rounds in the middle of the ring but it played out completely different.

            Yes I have and no you don't. And I'm not impressed. And a prime Pacquiao destroys this cat. Only reason why you dare speculate now is because we're speculating on how much Pacquiao has left in the tank. And I'm going to go with enough to lure this dude in for a bomb he didn't expect.

              yes if more people study algieri and study this current pac they'll realize algieri is no push over.

              people are grossly underestimating algieri.

                Many people expected Maidana to give Floyd trouble, myself and Dan included. Awkward style and power versus slowed reflexes. Algieri can't hurt Pacquiao. He's ****ed.

                  It is what it is..until the 2 big dogs fight, nobody will ever be a good enough opponent for either IMO.
                  No it's not. Because Ortiz was actually champion at 147, whereas Algieri is NOT. And also, Ortiz had been in the ring with better opposition than Algieri, even in his losses. Robert Guerrero was also interim champion, mandatory challenger at 147. He earned his shot. Algieri isn't even fighting at 147.

                  So please do not compare.

                    algieri will fight smart from round 1 to 12. jab jab jab, move, high guard, jab jab, move, right hand, jab, right hand, uppercut, high guard, jab jab, move, clinch, move, move.

                    pac will be very frustrated and all of you doubters will be embarrassed.

                    i can see algieri winning 7-5.

                      So lifting a title off a stiff makes all the difference. . Gotcha.
