Comments Thread For: Algieri Confident Timing, Jab Will Trump Pacquiao's Speed

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

WBO junior welterweight champion Chris Algieri (20-0, 8KOs) is going to use his significant advantages in size and reach as a way to keep Manny Pacquiao, the WBO's welterweight champion, from planting himself to shoot combinations or getting to close to hit the target.

Their HBO Pay-Per-View fight is scheduled for November 22nd at the Venetian in Macau, China.

Pacquiao is the big favorite, with the edge in speed, power and experience. Algieri is taller, and longer, and a skilled boxer who sees his accurate jab as the big weapon to combat Pacquiao's speed.

The old school run is indeed the jab neutralizes speed.

But in our era the fighters are faster than ever!

Algieri says he's going to use his greater height and reach to his advantage against Pacquiao. Now THAT'S a ****ing surprise! Genius, pure genius!

On November 22 it's going to be the end of an era. Manny will be face first on the canvas unconscious,once again.

Translation: I will be running from the opening bell, retreating with my jab and hoping I get a robbery like Bradley did.

This fight is gonna suck man, for real. Dammit.

Yeah, because Cotto and Margarito gave Pacman so much trouble with their big size advantages.

You are a punching bag. Your face is going to look like a tomato by the end of the fight.
