    Those are sad.
    Pacquiao was coming off a KO loss before Rios, Algieri actually came off a good win.

    Meanwhile Floyd fights Ortiz, who beat BERTO, then Ghost, who beat BERTO, Maidana, who beat Broner (who lost to PDL, barely beat Paulie in fact some say he lost that fight then gets his jaw broken by Maidana)


    Yeah Broner and Berto are great.

          Algeri is straight garbage..i am sorry he is terrible...I am in no way trying to say Guerrero was a great fight for Floyd but atleast he was a mandatory and had fights at ww...still a **** fight..but there was no excuse for Algeri or Rios to ever fight Manny....

            It benefits Arum because he knows Pac will win. It benefits Arum because those bums are also Top Rank so Arum keeps all the promoting fees.

            It helps Arum because he turns these bums into known names, at least a bit, and now he can use them to sell other crappy fights.

                    It's for the political connections. Pacquiao is a politician. Arum has direct contact with little league politicians like Hilary Clinton and Harry Reid. There was some other politician named Barack ***** and Bob Arum arranged for Pacquiao get personal time with him in the Oval Office.

                    The latest in Pacquiao's politics was a few weeks ago when news broke that Hilary Clinton, the 2016 ********ic front runner for President of The United states, formally asked Bob Arum to request an endorsement for Senator Pacquiao of Sarangani Province to stump for Mrs. Clinton.

                    All of this, of course, is minor compared to Money May who claimed that he could get President ***** to carry his belts to the ring when/if he fights Senator Pacquiao.

                      Who would you pick in a fight Ruslan or Broner?

                      I've got Ruslan. Broner is flat footed and went life and death with Taylor FFS

                      Broner got hit with the EXACT same shots Maidana hit him with, did you watch that fight?
