      I would love to see him beat Pacquaio. However, I would also love to win the lottery. I think I have about as much of a chance of winning the lottery as Algieri has of defeating Pacquaio.

        eight knockouts


        he's too featherfisted to give many any problems. if he had better power, his height and length would give manny problems.


        manny is just going to move in and out with impunity.

          the guy only has 20 fights. his claim to fame is a close win over manny's sparring partner.

          arum has a lot of people fooled, i see.

            it's pretty obvious that floyd has played a roll in avoiding manny pacquiao. just look at his rhetoric concerning pacquiao over the years. so has arum.

              so what if he has barely any power? he was able to beat provodnikov far better than p4p bradley did. truth is he has the boxing ability and height and reach advantage to keep manny from establishing any kind of effective offense.

              he will use his long reach, movement, and superb boxing IQ to keep pac at a distance. this will be a tough fight for the aging past prime pacquiao. i guarantee it.

                superb boxing IQ

                he has 20 pro fights! he had no amateur career! he was a kickboxer prior to moving to boxing.


                you're talking about manny pacquiao, an all time great. to think that he's going to have problems with the "boxing iq" of chris algieri is laughable.

                  if you algeiri boys are confident, place a bet. he's going to be a 5-10 to 1 underdog.

                    mayweather ducked pac in his prime and even now if floyd can fight algierri why can't he fight pac. Oh I forgot pac has to jump through all these obstacles.
