    The only way that this will not embarrassing is if it is at 140.

    No wait, it is till embarrassing since Garcia is a better option at 140.

    Pac deserves to loose if he accepts this crap fight. This is a spit on *******s faces. Arum must have deminta or something. This is terrible. Rather see Bradley and pac 3, to break the 1-1 record

    Ortiz... consensus #3 WW (albeit not too much experience at the weight; can't rewrite history, he was the next best WW to Floyd and Pacquiao)

    Guerrero... top 10 ranked at various weights through career; consensus top 10 WW (albeit not too much experience at the weight)

    Algieri... consensus top 10 ranked JWW

    --------

    Not on the level of Ortiz and Guerrero. If up at WW, not near their level.

    Plus Matthysse...

    One could also argue the following being better options at 140: Herrera (most had beating Garcia), Peterson (other JWW titlist, TNBR lists ahead of Algieri), Vargas (the other JWW titlist), and Provodnikov (remember, a bunch of you guys thought he had defeated Algieri?).

    PAC deserves a staybusy fight just like what Floyd has been doing with Guerrero and Ortiz

    Algeri wouldn't want to see Guerrero or a motivated Ortiz in his first foray at 147. Pac can do better.

    Not PPV worthy ,this is an HBO fight at best ??But in his defense he just beat Bradley ....I'm not happy with this at all ! if anything Algeri should rematch Ruslan
