MANILA, Philippines–Manny Pacquiao used the corners and ropes to his advantage as Chris Algieri continued to play the defensive game.

Algieri absorbed a big shot to the abdomen and Pacquiao continued to bring the game to the edges of the ring.

Pacquiao then landed a stiff left between the gloves of Algieri, leaving the American wondering and taking Pacquiao to the clinch.
