Manny Pacquiao will step back into the ring on November 22 in Macau, China to take on...wait for it...Chris Algieri! Oh man, that's going to be zzzzzzzzz. Sorry, we just fell asleep thinking about this bout. Look, Algieri's record (20-0-0, 8 KOs) shows that dude is no pushover, but the current WBO Light Welterweight champion taking on Pacquiao just isn't a huge draw.

I'm formally inviting everyone over to the pad in Tijuana to not watch Pacquiao-Algieri. Bring Your Own Bad Jokes. And beer.
I hoped I would wake up & find out the Pacquiao/Algieri fight wasn't finalized it was just a bad dream...I'm going back to sleep #boxing
