While eight-division title holder Manny Pacquiao has several mansions in the Philippines and the US, his Nov 22 opponent, American boxer Chris Algieri, lives in the basement of his parent's house in New York City. The basement, which serves as his living quarters, doubles as his training room.

It is one of the glaring contrasts between the two boxers who would share the limelight in The Cotai Arena in Macau, which explains also the lopsided bets heavily in Pacquiao's favour as well as rules imposed by the WBO.

Other differences include fight record with Algieri having 20 bouts over six years, while the Filipino southpaw has more than 60. Guaranteed purse is another gap between them since Pacquiao, who once worked as a construction worker and tried boxing to bring himself and his family out of poverty, has a guaranteed purse of $30 million, while Algieri made his first million when he won in June the WBO junior welterweight title from Ruslan Provodnikov.

The only thing where there is a narrower gap between the two is age since the unbeaten American boxer with a master's degree in nutrition is 30, while Pacquiao turns 36 in December - considered already as a "ripe" age to retire from professional boxing.

Despite Pacquiao's near-retirement age, many boxing experts said he still enjoys a bigger advantage over Algieri, not in terms of physical height or reach, but in terms of speed and skill that the unanimous decision on Nov 22 is next to a given.
