Algieri’s height, long reach pose threat to Pacquiao

MANNY Pacquiao’s longtime friend and assistant trainer Buboy Fernandez believes that Pacman must smother Chris Algieri’s long reach for him to be able to defeat the unbeaten American in their upcoming title bout on November 23 at the Cotai Arena of the Venetian Hotel in Macau.

Fernandez said that he is expecting Algieri (20-0 win-loss card with eight knockouts) to use his long arms and height advantage that’s why Pacquiao needs to cut him down and not give him a space to run.
