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

[GOD-FR33]

Shut up already!!!!!!!!

Notice how Manny and Cotto don't do much talking before a fight? WHY? Because they are quiet assassins who do their talking with their fists in the ring. There is nothing wrong with being confident but there is a thing called, "over-doing it". CA is over-doing it with his mouth. He honestly thinks that because he is taller, longer, and can move, that he's going to "outbox" Manny? LoL. Manny has a lot left in the tank is looking very fast and strong as always. He is going to bust CA up!!!!!!!!

Guys, Algieri is simply trying to sell the fight. Most fans think he has little chance of winning. He's trying to convince them otherwise so they will buy the fight. And if Pacquiao has declined, then Algieri does have a chance to box his way to a decision victory. I don't see that happening though.

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

And just what exactly do you base this prediction on? Algieri's super power? Pacquiao's glass chin? Hatred for Pacquiao?

Let's see, Pac's only real recent loss (Bradley's doesn't count) was to JMM. In his recent fights, he ran into trouble in a few spots:

Cotto: First few rounds were a classic. Cotto troubled Pac early.
Margo: Had Pac against the ropes and went to the body, hurting Manny.
Bradley II: Landed one of his few haymakers and lifted Pac off his feet (thought Manny was jumping backwards a bit, but I digress).

I don't see Algieri having Cotto's skill level, Margo's power, Bradley's willingness to throw caution to the wind nor JMM's counter punching. Of course, he could always land an H-bomb on Manny the way JMM did but that was such a perfect shot, I don't know.

Best chance he has is moving around and trying to catch Manny coming in with his jab. But I see Algieri's lack of top level opponents and experience being a big factor.

Lol! Algieri couldn't KO a girlscout with an armful of cookies...Well maybe he could, but that's about it!

Mark my words: Manny goes easy on Algieri... This is such a mismatch... I'm a big pacman fan, but this fight is rubbish, no excuse... I'm only buying this card to watch Vasyl Lomachenko

Pac's speed is really going to surprise Algebra.
He's going to get dropped, Pac's on a different level.
