Pacquiao vs Algiergi

[Hulk]

Terrible matchup. I like Algieri a lot, but he doesn't deserve a super fight yet. Pac should be finishing his career with name opponents, not people who were on FNF just a couple of fights ago. Shame on Bob Arum. As usual.

That means three consecutive light hitting opponents after being KTFO in devastating fashion . Guess this is all smoke and mirrors , Pac and Arum no longer have the balls to fight an opponent that can exact a KO on him. Pac needs to be removed from top 10 P4P opponent list with this grand cherry picking fake belt title set up. This cherry picking is now super extreme !! Pac has no business being gifted a Mayweather fight based on fighting feather fisted opponents.

Rios isn't light hitting. Not a true welter or a great boxer either, but he can punch.

He is not a power puncher , flat footed, unskilled, slow , defenseless and brainless ..... = Paquiaio Prey

Sad thing is this will definitely ppv.. Armum will not be putting his most familiar name. Pac could fight Butterbean and it will still be ppv. One thing that has left me baffled is when Floyd Senior made the comment that Floyd's would have no problem beating Pac at this point. Why run your mouth about such things if there remains 0 chance if it's happening. I would rather see Pac fight Prod only because Roach has been running his mouth again. I would hold of on my disgust hoping that we are do for a surprise over Pacs next fight. I'm one of those pactards always hoping for a great fight to be announced. Prod then Floyd, how's that for dreaming.

How is Prod a good match ? The guy is one dimensional and can not hang with boxers . Looking at Pacs last two fights he is not going to mix it up and will dominate and box the ears off Prod. Why no mention of the two younger Thurman or Porter ? Never in his career has Pac fought a really good undefeated young fighter in his prime !!

Think this will be closer than most expect, but Manny gets the edge.

While Pac SHOULD win...at this stage of his career nothing is certain. He clearly isn't the same fighter he used to be. Algiergi is no Marquez. But he is a skilled fighter with good heart. Certainly better "big" names for Pac to fight. But i think some of you are overselling this version of Pac. He hasn't
"destroyed" anyone in quite a while. His speed and power have clearly diminished compared to years ago.

Pac has just beaten the 2nd best welterweight Tim Bradley and he should be fighting the number 1.

What is wrong with boxing?

Why not Thurman or Porter ? No longer can Pac fans say that neither has earned the right. Insted we get Manny continuallly fight light hitting fighters moving up in weight and old retreads . Some things just never change .......

How is fighting your long time sparring / in stable Top Rank fighter wanting the best opponent for Pacquiao? If you were a true believer in Pacquiao's ability you eoikd be clamoring for a Thurman or Porter match

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.

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.
