Unbeaten contender Chris Algieri (20-0, eight KOs) isn’t
too involved with all the trash talking that WBO welterweight champion Manny
Pacquiao’s trainer Freddie Roach has been creating recently as they head in to
the November twenty second fight in Macao, China.
Roach has talked trash since day one, however recently
he’s enlarged his trash lecture another level in taking additional verbal shots
at the 30-year-old Algieri. You can’t blame Roach for needing to speak
additional trash at now within the game, as a result of he’s have to be
compelled to be usually involved regarding his aging 35-year-old fighter
Pacquiao losing to Algieri.

Pacquiao hasn’t looked sensible during a fight in ages,
and he’s not fought anyone that you just will decision a decent fighter since
his knockout loss to Juan Manuel Marquez in 2012. There are a unit clearly lots
of worries there for Roach, as a result of a loss for Pacquiao to Algieri on
November twenty second might signal the top of the income.
To be sure, Pacquiao can get a direct repeat against
Algieri as a result of Pacquiao’s promoter Bob Arum putting in a repeat clause
within the contract. However, if Algieri out-boxes Pacquiao a second time,
it’ll be tough for Arum to raise boxing fans to still pay to check Pacquiao
fight on HBO. Pacquiao can have lost four out of his last half dozen fights.
“He [Roach] is wasting his time as a result of I don’t
even browse those reports, therefore that’s the primary factor,” Algieri
aforementioned via FIghtnews.com. “It looks reasonably odd for him to be
starting such a lot and speech numerous {different factors various things} and
each day it’s a brand new thing. However like I aforementioned, I don’t browse
them and that I don’t care regarding them and it doesn’t create a distinction comeback
fight night. I might imagine it's some reasonably strategy, a sort of mental
game or knick knackery. Freddie’s been around an extended time and perhaps this
has worked for him within the past however it’s not progressing to work on
American state.”
Roach is trying to induce an additional edge for his
fighter Pacquiao. If his trash talking will cause some self- doubt on Algieri’s
half, then Roach can have accomplished his goal. Roach’s trash talking
conjointly helps things call at terms of attracting some interest within the
fight.
As things stand the Pacquiao-Algieri fight are lucky if
it attracts four hundred, 000 pay-per-view buys as a result of boxing fans
having no clue World Health Organization Algieri is. I’m unsure that it’ll
matter a lot of within the massive theme of things the trash talking Roach
will. In different words, he’s not progressing to be able to budge the PPV buys
during a vital manner by trash talking Algieri.
If something, Roach’s trash talking can hurt the PPV buys
over facilitate them, as a result of casual boxing fans don’t have a clue to
Algieri is, and they’re in all probability not progressing to wish to dump lots
of money on paying to check Pacquiao fight Algieri. Rather than tearing Algieri
down, Roach ought to be making an attempt to make him up so fans can wish to
pay $70 to look at the fight.
