Rios the front runner to face Pacquiao in November

[Hougigo]

Would love to see my Colorado guy get the fight, get Denver some 24/7 love. I just hope Alvarado represents if it does. Denver only gets a good fighter every 10-20 years. I mean we had Ron Lyle in the 70's, Stevie in the 90's and early 00's, now Alvarado.

I think he'll get it. Arum's a smart guy, Rios will get his shot in, but not off a loss.
Pac will fight Alvarado and Rios can fight someone else. After that he can fight Pac (win or loss) and then Alvarado for a trilogy

Arum drooling over the money

Taking on someone who just lost, can't box and is a division lighter than him.
......

Looks like Pacquiao is back everyone!

I'd love to see Pac fight Rios more than anyone else out there. Rios is tough as hell and Pac is coming off a devastating KO loss. This should be a great fight.

that was funny...but on the real, dude just got KTFO cold in his last fight...he deserves to be fed a TR pawn....don't know about you, but I kinda miss seeing the lil' dude chop up brave souls...maybe he can fight the Bradley-Marquez winner next year for some get back though

Surely Mike would deserve the shot over Rios given his recent win in the rematch? I don't know how Bob spins this one if Rios gets it.

That said, Rios-Pac for me will be just like Marg-Pac (assuming Pac isn't suffering from any JMM hangovers).

I'm not excited about these fights but who else is out there for Pac to fight, with JMM/Bradley being taken,?

Be good to see what Pac has got left in the tank though.

true....would be a good look for yall....Mike probably would do a lil' better against Pac than Rios imo...but the outcome would be kinda the same imo....Pac's style is all wrong for BOTH of them but losing to Ward, Floyd, a Klitschko and Pac is held against NOONE these days....no doubt, Mike will fight his ass off...thats for sure!!

Hasn't Arum been hinting at this though too?

Good fight IMO. I'm not sure what Pacman has left in him.
