Fight Credential

Form

While Pacquiao remains an elite fighter at 35, there's a clear feeling upon watching him that he's no longer the same explosive force he once was. And regardless of how rightfully large a bettor favorite he is coming into the fight, when it comes to the current form of each fighter in relation to their absolute prime, the advantage swings in Algieri's favor. At 30, Algieri is at the peak of his abilities physically, and on the verge of finding out how good he can be by continually matching himself tough throughout his meteoric rise into Saturday's fight.

Advantage: Algieri
