How are fighting undefeated Thurman or Porter a waste. Both Money and PAC are cherry picking pussies. If I am one of them I a crashing their next post fights and undressing them pussies and calling them out like Lara did to Canelo. Otherwise neither is going to be given a chance by these two pussies.
To me, Porter is the bigger threat if the two based on style and mindset. I would be interested to see how he takes a punch vs Manny n how he handles Floyd's defense n skill, but he is a rough go for either of those guys at this point, or any point in their careers for that matter.
My question is: Why can't they fight each other now in order to develop name recognition n demand for those two to fight the winner? It was the same when Oscar was the cash cow in the late nineties. How many fights were lost when Quartey, Tito, Sweet Pea, Norris...etc., waited for the big money fight vice fighting each other? Manny and Floyd have both fought some tough competition to get to their level, Thurman n Porter should do the same.
JMM losing to Bradley doesn't erase the coma-induced ass-whipping he put on Pactrash.
Manny is not the 2nd best WW by beating lil Timmy.
PLENTY guys at WW will beat Bradley....and a LOT worse than Manny did.
That spot has to earned not gifted to him by dumbass fair-weather so called fans.
Tell me who can beat PAC Man other than Floyd little man?
JMM....we already know that;D
Thurman for sure...soon as Pac covers up One Time would blast those ribs.
Porter
Manny wants no parts of those real WW's.
That's why he's fighting/cherrypicking Algeri..Pac is just riding out the rest of his career without getting KTFO again.
Whilst the best Pac Man 2009 has gone, he is still the best challenge for Floyd. It is still the best fight out there.
I'm hearing Algieri is asking for too much cash and the bout is in jeopardy
Pacquiao vs Algieri is official for Nov 22 in Macau, China at 147. Real disappointed here not a solid match up Algieri loses in every way he gets KO'd or loses on the cards since he won't get a decision over Pac in Macau.
i wouldnt mind this fight if it werent PPV. no way is this at all PPV worthy and anybody who buys it should be ashamed of themselves. as i stated in my earlier post, people talk about floyd cherry picking fights, but pac has been way worse. floyd would get his head ripped off by fans for even mentioning an algeri fight.
Arum must be getting huge money from the casinos in Macau to serve this shit up. It's a rubbish opponent and it's in Macau so it's going to do really low US PPV numbers.
Manny is moving down in weight to see if he can still spark 140 pounders. Probably Manny as an exciting KO fighter is worth a lot of money in Macau and Asia so that's where they're going with his career if a Marquez fight doesn't happen.
i must be the only one who thinks this is an interesting fight. algieri showed great heart and nice boxing skills, so i dont think it will be so one sided. in fact, from the one fight ive seen with algieri, id say he has a good chance. i have a hunch he may be all wrong for pacman.
He's being interviewed on FNF, ring center with Teddy and the crowd is shouting the name of the guy in main event and tepid in response. Wow. Tough home crowd :cold: No wonder they are putting this in China
If this fight were on hbo I would be excited for Algeri getting a shot. This is not a PPV and I 'll be watching the replay a week later
Not a disaster of an opponent but it is what it is a tune up fight as were the bouts with the light hitting Rios and Bradley . Pacquiao has earned the right to have tune ups especially off he brutal KO at the hands of JMM. But let's not try to say Pacquiao is back because he is far from it. If he believed he were he would not be fighting blown up lightweights. The better question is what stiff awaits him after this fight. The boxing masses will truly be asking more of an opponent after this fight.
Bradley was ranked #3 p4p when Pac fought him, so I wouldn't consider that a tune up fight at all. I'm with Manny giving Algeri a shot (as most seem to be), I just think having it on PPV is a complete rip off. They won't make much on PPV in my opinion, but Arum is a savvy guy so I could be wrong.
Bump
Vargas and Demarco in the 3rd round if anyone cares. Jessie Vargas is cut by right hand a head butt on review. Good fight.
2-1 Vargas
I'm pulling for the underdog. Here is a guy that nobody has heard of, is dubbed an "opponent" and sub par and yet he had to shrink down 3 pounds to defend his own title because its Manny I decide what weight the fight is going to be Pacquiao. Its pathetic. I hope a rabbit is somehow pulled out of the hat and he knocks Manny out.
3-1 Vargas, and frankly... the 1st round could've gone either way.
Both sharpshooting top notch, solid exchanges. Vargas teeing off end 5th
Demarco ate some choice rights in that melee.
Vargas can't seem to miss Demarco's head.
4-1 Vargas.
Any one got a live link for a poor fellah like me ;) ?
Vargas might not have power... but he's certainly getting the attention of Demarco with those huge shots.
Vargas needs to stop laying in 7th, Demarco can chew him up with uppercuts
