ANOTHER BOXING IRONY: PACQUIAO-ALGIERI

Manny Pacquiao keeps saying he fights for the fans. This isn?t true anymore.
The fans have spoken. Don?t waste the gains of boxing when the actual pay-per-view (PPV) numbers for the recent fights of Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao were made to look bad and disappointing for those who are bereft of purpose other than their own purpose. Boxing is half way through in beating itself to heal a human sport bitten by vampires. Sanity ruled despite the jerks and crooks.
The people?s win is your win.
Why Pacquiao?s upcoming bout against Chris Algieri in Macau, China isn?t worth watching? Aside from being just a ?money show,? why the ?fight? will not catch the interest of both the hardcore and casual fans enough for them NOT to spend their hard earned bread for it? And why am I not watching this so called ?Clash in Cotai II? and the other future clashes of Pacquiao (except versus Mayweather) when I am full-blooded Filipino and a fan of the Filipino sports icon?
Why pamper Sponge Bob after the people have made Floyd and Showtime realize in the last two Mayweather shows that there is no money in their forthcoming scheduled ?fights? except the fight opposite Pacquiao? Why, for heaven?s sake, let Michael Konzc and Bob Arum wallow anew in excuses to stubbornly make ?boxing circus? for their cash cow and thereby transform each of them into clowns or roadblocks again to the one and only real and richest fight that matters to Pacquiao and the whole world?
Why befuddled that irony never leaves an ironic person? Why patronize the Pacquiao vs. Algieri? Why cause vampires to smile on their way to the bank at the expense of countless thinking people who should be all smiles after November 22? Why there will never be an event in boxing today that could be more intriguing and exciting than Mayweather vs. Pacquiao? And why not join the worldwide PPV (People Power Victorious) movement?
Brats and crocs are hard up for excuses nowadays. Won?t you care this time to take your part in the noble fight?
