Former four division champion Juan Manuel Marquez is picking WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao (56-5-2, 38KOs) to overcome unbeaten Chris Algieri (20-0, 8KOs), the WBO champion at 140-pounds, on November 22nd at the Venetian Resort & Casino in Las Vegas. Marquez fought Pacquiao four times and scored a sixth round knockout in the fourth meeting back on December 8th in 2012.
“He barely has a chance to win. Algieri is strong and he’s durable. He has also has boxing ability, as he’s shown against Ruslan Provodnikov – but he doesn’t have the style to beat Pacquiao, who has great speed and power. I believe that [Pacquiao] can win by knockout,” Marquez said.
