    because PAC has that DLH-like size advantage over Rios

      your post should read 'typical fight fan...all you want is excitement'


      there is no floyd fight

      make a Lucas fight if GBP allows it

      its better than PAC-JMM 54

      its better than PAC-Cotto CW 2


      unless you want to see PAC-Zaveck?



      prime Roberto Duran could be reincarnated to fight PAC and you'd probably still b1tch about that
      stop with the extreme hyperbole. no one said manny isn't great. i don't know if pac can produce a highlight reel ko against an elite fighter with balance, movement and defense at this weight. Niether do you because you haven't seen it.

      rios is a mismatch. you know he's not on manny's level. if your argument is pac/rios is better than those fights yes we agree. but don't try and sell it as the 2nd coming of anything other than manny/hatton. thats disingenuous and thats what I am criticizing.

        you guys still think we've got a prime, motivated, hungry, full killer instinct PAC


        i see a faded fighter that's gotten lazy off his riches vs a young, hungry, relentless fighter


        but hey, like i said, if you guys wanna see a 6th or 7th JMM fight or oooh, a devon alexander fight, then that's on you guys

          PAC to Roach after the Bradley debacle: 'dont worry coach, we'll make more money next time'



          doesn't sound like the ole PAC to me

            respectfully, I find statements like these to be excuses should manny not KO JMM or loses to floyd should they fight. His performances, or lack thereof, have more to do IMO with his failure to work on certain things throughout his career then they do his lack of hunger and motivation.

            no one wants to see JMM 7 or bradley 2. But I also don't want to see another TR in house glorified sparring session, whcih many people think a rios/manny fight would be.

              Pac would literally murder Rios. How about old ass Arum never makes this fight.

                Not interested in a Manny-Margarito rematch. Give me Manny-JMM VII before I even entertain this matchup.

                Manny would toy with this guy

                  Because you need a size advantage in order for it to be a mismatch. Lord have mercy.
