Who is more likely to lose this month Pacquiao or Klitschko?

Post by hulkmaniac »

Both are getting up there in age and both have things going on in their personal life that might take away from their focus. Also their opponents are both undefeated and hungry. Who do you think has the greater chance of losing his upcoming fight?

Pac More likely to lose, Although I would say Pulev is an intriguing opponent and don't put this down as a slam dunk win for Wlad.

Pacquiao. He is facing a taller unbeaten opponent in Chris Aligeri who is determined to make a splash in the Welterweight division.

If I had to pick one or the other it would be Pacquiao. Don't think that will happen though.

Wladimir.

He's 38 and Pulev is a big boy.

I can see the arguement you are going with however. Despite Wladimir being 38 he is still quite fresh as he has not been in many tough fights.

Pulev is arguably the number 2 or 3 in the division right now, has a solid if not great resume to match a decent skillset.

Algieri has a good skillset, but very, very little to show on his resume so far.

Wlad fight is 60/40

Pac 70/30

I agree with this, however Pulev isn't a highly skilled boxer and Algieri is and on the same token Pulev is a great puncher and Chris Algieri isn't.

The deciding factor will be if MP can land a punch on Algieri that puts him to sleep, I'm not sure if Pulev gets that opportunity vs Wlad.

Since when is Pulev considered GREAT PUNCHER?

I didn't realize I left off the "er" at the end of that meaning that he is a greater puncher than Algieri.
