Comments Thread For: Rios: Marquez Beat Pacquiao, I'm Ready To Fight Him

[hitking]

Don't see how Manny Pacquaio managed to find his way onto this thread. But anywho. Watching live, I thought it was close and wasn't at all surprised or outraged that Pac got the decision, and I was rooting for JMM. After watching it a couple more times, I've consistantly scored it 7-5 JMM. Either way, to say either guy dominated or won going away is ridiculous on both sides of the debate.

That fight would be similar to the Juan Diaz fights, except Rios is slower and much easier to hit. I know Rios has seemed to be unstoppable recently, but I can't imagine him taking 12 rounds of that kind of punishment.

I'd love to see if Marquez still has enough left to school this youngster.

Everyone should just quit feeding into all the Pac-fan nonsense. The majority of them are NOT boxing fans, they are PACQUIAO fans. Their criteria for judging fights consists of whatever Pac does in the ring from fight to fight. They have not studied the game outside of Pacquiao, therefore they use criteria like "the other guys face had more bruises", "he stepped on Pacs toe", "counter-punching is cowardly", "the guy who scores a knock down wins, even if he loses every other round!". These people are not true fans of the sport. Their fanatacism is based on ethnic identity. When Pac retires, they will go back to cheering for their favorite fighting roosters in their back yards. Until then, we will just have to endure their constant trolling of every boxing site so that they can remind the world that Pacquiao is 10 X better than Robinson, Duran, Ali, Armstrong, Chavez, and Hagler combined. It's a shame that Pacs delusional fans have turned so much of the world against him.

Way to stereotype. Remember when Pac clearly beat Marquez and all the Mexican boxers busted out their little twitter accounts and claimed "robbery"? That's what I consider "ethnic identity".

Damn, how are the Top Rank fans gonna defend this? The guys who are defending Rios and trashing Gamboa. Now they will have to turn around and **** on Rios


It's hard to be a Top Rank fan these days.

No, I don't remember when Pacquiao "cleary beat Marquez". On what planet did that fight take place? Is there a clip of it on youtube? I must have missed it. I seem to remember 3 competative fights (with at least 2 bad decisions) between them.

BTW....I'm not Mexican, so save it.

Brandon Rios suspected all along that Yuriorkis Gamboa wasn’t all that interested in fighting him. That’s fine by Rios because it looks like he’s going to get the fight he really wanted if he defeats Richard Abril on April 14 in Las Vegas. Promoter Bob Arum told BoxingScene.com earlier this week that if all goes as planned he intends to match Rios against Mexican legend Juan Manuel Marquez on July 14 at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

From Rios comments it appears he believes he will meet JMM at 140. Why in the world would JMM fight Rios at 140? JMM appears to be his best at 135?
