Rios is painfully overrated. Manny will KO him within 4 rounds. Floyd would beat him to a pulp for every second of every round and stop him by round 9. He isn't worthy of fighting either guy. Berto > Rios. Berto would also pants Rios at 147, as would Ortiz, Guerrero or Bradley.
People need to stop overrating this fat sloppy brawler.
Since people are excited for Manny to fight Rios,no 1 could say a damn thing if Floyd fought Danny Garcis at ww right?
Nope...that would be a perfect fight for Floyd. There would be no health issue at all :lol1:. Floyd would not have to worry about being like Ali.
Rios vs Pac would be exciting and IMO a 50/50 fight, but if you think about Garcia vs. Mayweather; FMJ would be boxing circles around Garcia in a boring ass fight, but could see FMJ possibly stopping Garcia in the late rounds! Also Mayweather is too big 147 -154 lbr. and Garcia @140 not a competitive fight at all, honestly would rather see Rios vs. Garcia!
rios vs pac is stupid. just because rios has ko power that makes this a great fight? Rios has no skills at all and got schooled by Abril. Garcia has ko power too and is alot better than 1 dimensional Rios but i dont want to see him fight floyd either. Theres not many legit people for either of them to fight
I didn't realize a very small minority of posters on this site being okay with Pac-Rios was worth a whining thread from Larryx. Damn, have some pride in yourself. You should be saving these threads to complain about stuff that matters, or to defend Mayweather-Alvarez and tell us why its better than a Martinez or Pacquiao fight.
Obviously you missed the mental breakdown and death threats to fifty this kid had over his hero being insulted

Larry:
I get your point but I wouldn't worry so much about it. The standard is higher for floyd because he is the better boxer and also because he talks the most ****. As such, people want to see him lose so the only fights they accept are with larger opponents who have a better chance of knocking floyd out.
If they don't fight, a small but vocal group of manny lovers will co sign the manny/rios bout because its "all action." you should already know they see an easy manny KO, which is what they want, so they justify it. As floyd fans, we shouldn't want or justify the kind of garbage.
Danny may have earned the big payday a floyd fight brings with what he has done this year, but that wouldn't be a great fight to me. It does nothing for floyd except stay busy. If manny keeps refusing lets hope floyd goes with Sergio or Canelo, with Sergio being my preference.
Again I understand your point, but why hold floyd to such low expectations as beating another JWW moving up just because the small, vocal, birther fringe of manny's fanbase does it with him? Be better than them.

Why are u always crying? So the old saying Manny will never fight a young fighter is out the window now?? Isn't that what u guys cried about for years??? Manny always fighting washed up old fighters, etc. then when he faces a young fighter there's more crying.. What's wrong with ya?? U fllowmos likes to switch your words a lot.
I don't have a problem with either really, neither are the greatest fight but neither are they the worst fights around either. For Floyd if it was his only fight for that year that wouldn't be ideal, but I think that would be people's real issue more than just him fighting Garcia.
Manny will probably fight more than once, the issue with Rios is Rios is the kind of guy Manny thrives against but really he hasn't fought anyone like that in a minute so to me it isn't that big a deal. Not the most challenging fight for Manny I reckon but at least it would be something different.

I don't see people calling for either fight. Pac vs Rios is stupid, Mayweather vs Garcia is stupid. I think a lot of us are simply just giving less of a sh*t about Mayweather or Pacquiao fighting, so if Pac is gonna fight 140 / 147lbers and Floyd is gonna fight 154lbers, so be it.
What is it with NSB when one or two people have a certain opinion, its passed off as a general rule?
Im pretty sure the majority of sensible people think Rios-Pacquiao would be absolutely gash.
But as long as one person says it would be a great fight, you get guys like Larry getting butthurt and making a new thread about "I guess its ok for Floyd to do this cos EVERYONE thinks its ok for Pac to do that"
God this place is retarded.
by fireworks, do you mean a complete and utter slap in the face mismatch? rios isn't skilled enough to tie mannys gloves, let alone fight him. lmao. i know you're a smart poster, but come on dude, this is just plain dumb. rios is garbage and pac brutalizes him in similar fashion to the way he brutalized cotto, if not worse, since rios has no defensive skills whatsoever...
and yes i agree, floyd - garcia would be boring
LOL. Was playing around.
