Pac haters are discrediting Pac's win over a young, hungry, undefeated talent like Algieri, because of how easily Pac dominated him. This is unfair, Algieri was coming off beating this perceived beast in Provodnikov, showing lots of resilience, heart and skills in that fight. Algieri got steamrolled by Pac because Pac's a speed beast who didn't respect his power, but i reckon he'd outbox a bunch of top fighters out there. Slow and /or flatfooted fighters like Broner or Danny Garcia would have their hands full with Algieri. Algieri would ¨herrera¨ Garcia again. I expect Chris to become champ again one day
Pac's victory over Chris Algieri will look better over time

Algieiri was a 14-1 underdog. He had 20 pro fights and no amateur experience when he fought Manny. He was moving up from 140 to fight for the ww title at 144. He was a bum when he fought Manny and will be one for the rest of his career. -
Yet if it was Floyd who fought Algieri, he would of been crucified on these forums and by the general public.Comment

Algieri schooled Provo
who in turn almost killed a legit P4Per in Bradley
Algieri has an extensive kickboxing background, that counts for something seeing how Vitali (probably the HW H2H GOAT ) was also a kickboxing champ
Algieri will go on to do big thingsComment

Floyd deserved to be crucified for fighting anyone not named Pacquiao as long as Pac was available and willing.
now that he finally grew a pair, Floyd's future choices for opponents will be much less scrutinized / criticizedComment

You mean that since Manny has overcome his phobia of needles and Arum has given up on his stadium plans the fight finally got made?
Makes sense.
Everyone knows the reason the fight finally got made is because Arum has milked Pacquiao as much as he could and has finally cashed out him for one last huge payday.Comment
