What should Algieri's nickname be after he beats Pacquiao?

[hulkmaniac]

I don't think his nickname "fighting scholar" or "fighting collegiate" has much of a ring to it.

How about these?
Roach Control
Roach Buster
Overachiever
Italian Wonder

[ReggieDiggs]

His nickname does suck, no question about that. I don't like the odds of him needing a new nickname for beating Manny even an older not quite as Manny Manny, but the Future Filipino President Assassin isn't any worse than his current sh!tty nickname.

[Roars Like Me]

He won't anyway but:
Chris 'the piss' Algieri is the best I can for the moment as it's early for me DD

[sucracristo]

chris "has compromising pics of judges with barnyard animals" algieri
chris "gave his opponent food poisoning before the fight" algieri
chris "ko'd by punch thrown accidentally a 2nd after the bell resulting in dq win" algieri
chris "hell has frozen over" algieri

[Baby Face Finster]

How about "Silky" Chris Algieri? He's still going to lose to Pacquaio though.

[handsofstone]

Chris "whose the guy standing over there,you know the one with the Italy footall top on,is it his brother" Algieri

[sucracristo]

if he even makes it past the 6th round:
chris "did better than expected" algieri

[Tarkus]

The real magic man

[Roars Like Me]

Chris ' Please stop hitting me Manny it really hurts' Algieri

[bfchunk]

Chris "Back to FNF" Algieri

[drunkenpiper36]

I think after this fight it will be Chris " here and gone in a day" Algieri.

[Bard of Boxrec]

chris "has compromising pics of judges with barnyard animals" algieri
chris "gave his opponent food poisoning before the fight" algieri
chris "ko'd by punch thrown accidentally a 2nd after the bell resulting in dq win" algieri
chris "hell has frozen over" algieri

Haha this is brilliant.

[uptconnect]

After the fight, win or lose, call him moneybags.

[chucktaylor]

'Saint' Chris Algieri, as he'll be considered a performer of miracles, and therefore canonized.

[Brut]

Chris The Roid Crusher Algieri
Chris The PED Buster Algieri
Chris The CW Killer Algieri

lol

[tiny_acres]

Chris "Holy crap I won" Algieri

[sucracristo]

if i could just add one serious note, i still don't get why this fight
is at welter. makes no sense for pac. even though these abc titles
mean little, pac still has the wbo 147 and agieri has the wbo 140.
this means if agieri DID win, no matter what his nickname would be,
he would have both the wbo 140 AND the wbo 147. he has a remote
chance of coming out of this with titles in 2 divisions. if he loses, he is
still the 140 champ. the best pac can do is defend his own title and if he
loses somehow, even by some scandal or robbery, he has no titles.

pac wouldn't have to do very much to make 140 and then it would be
pac who would most likely come out of it with the wbo 140 and 147 titles.
i know the abc titles mean little, but these guys still fight for titles, so
why wouldn't pac want to hold titles in 2 divisions instead of one?
there are arguably better fights for pac at 140, especially if golden boy
is really willing to work with TR, as oscar claims. pac is the one who holds
all the cards and he isn't making the most of it. seems like a bad business
decision. if pac is going to fight for titles and pay sanctioning fees, then
he should go for the 2nd title. algieri can't afford to say no.

[punchoutsb]

Chris The Roid Crusher Algieri
Chris The PED Buster Algieri
Chris The CW Killer Algieri

lol

I forget, when did Pac fail a drug test to make these nicknames topical?

How about "The Superfight Killer" since he's already knocked Provo out of a potential fight with Pac or Floyd, and beating Manny would finally squash any thoughts of him and Money.

[drunkenpiper36]

Does anyone think that Algieri stands any sort of chance against Pac? He was after all supposed to get killed by Provodnokov.

I don't, but I would love nothing more than to see him pull off the upset.

I kinda agree. I had never seen Algieri fight prior to seeing him against Ruslan. I was impressed with his speed and super human workrate. He was truly in amazing condition as well and showed a ton of heart. Did he deserve the decision? Questionable I suppose, but I was happy to see him get it regardless. I also liked his personality in the post fight interview. Seems like a gentleman and a smart fellow.

Pacquiao isn't Provodnokov and I don't get why they get compared. They fight nothing alike aside from having Roach as their trainer.

LMFAO. This thread literally made me lol. But in all seriousness, he stands 0 chance of beating pac. The ppv numbers for this are going to be atrocious. Dude looks like member of one directions for ffs. lol

Oh I'm not comparing Provodnokov to Pacquiao. Only stating that Algieri overcame a dangerous foe that he was heavily predicted to lose to. Pac will likely win, but I'd like to see Chris give it his best.

adelson is paying cash up front for these macao cards, and he is doing them for the asian
audience, so ppv is not even expected to play a big role, here.
to be honest, i think that might be why they picked algieri for this macao card.
converted kickboxer who looks like an abercrombie model with a major title
as pac's opponent in front of asia's high rollers in macao, which had gaming
revenues over $45billion last year. this isn't really meant for hardcore american
fans, although hundreds of thousands will buy it and watch
