    Not to mention his corner , when they spoke about their game plan I thought they were talking about beating Isaac Froost on Fight Night Champ
    LOL, that was the gameplan to beat Isaac Frost. "Give away these first few rounds, just last them. Okay, now tire him out for these rounds. Alright, championship rounds, I'M LETTING YOU OUT OF THE CAGE, KNOCK HIM OUT!"

      To be completely honest, I can see him beating Mayweather. The reason he didn't throw was because HE COULDN'T due to Pacquiao's legendary offense. Seriously, Pacquiao shuts boxers down with offense. It is truly amazing.

      Floyd poses no offensive threat and believe it, Algieri would throw at will and outbox and outclass him.

        I won't call him a "BUM" I wouldn't call any fighter that is still a World Champion at 140 a "BUM"

        He is a DECENT FIGHTER but make no mistake...Pacquiao and Roach knew as soon as the fight was signed they would have a easy time with this guy and Roach made that clear leading up to this fight

        It should've been a Free Network Fight...NOT A PPV Fight!

          So it's the same as Floyd vs Canelo at 152?
          Chris will have to prove in his next few fights what level he's at. Personally I think he could cause some guys like Broner and Vargas big problems at 140. He's never going to beat a guy like Manny or Floyd obviously.
          Let's just call him a gate keeper if he decides to continue boxing.

          Kid has a great personality, but he's got a long way to go to prove the naysayers wrong.

          One thing is certain. He was lucky enough to land a shot at a title in the big leagues.

          That chin, doe. Ain't gonna cut it.

            definitely, algieri is not a bum. he's in the same level as fraud jr and pac is way up there all alone on the top.

              You will rarely catch me calling a pro fighter a bum anymore. People I think throw that word around too much,

              And it's harsh given the context. That being stated:

              Algieri as a fighter is nowhere near Pac's level. Not even close

                Pac did not fight a good fighter last night I laughed when it was signed. Still laughing now.

                  he is a solid fighter but he had no business being in the ring with pacquiao, everyone except algieri and his bailiff/trainer knew it going in.

                    He is a C- level fighter at best. He is 5'10" which gives him an advantage with him fighting at 147 and below. The cage gate door got jammed last night from the looks of it. This fight was a sham. PERIOD.

                      He's got a Masters so he's not a bum but he's not a good fighter.

                      Last night was am embarrassment for the sport
