Rios the front runner to face Pacquiao in November

[Cuauhtémoc1520]

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

Horrible fight, 50% of Pac destroys Rios. He's going to be a punching bag for 12 rounds or until they stop it. I would be worried for Rios' health.

Agree, I like Rios but his style of standing there fighting inside isn't going to work at all !

Who the hell would want to see Rios at 147 he's already a fat ass at 140! At 147 he would look like Chris Arreola.

I still can't get over the fact that Pacquiao lost to marquez. I hope he gets to redeem his name and win in his next fight.

Bob wanted Rios vs Pacquiao all along

This is what makes it so hard to defend boxing, my sport that I love compared to other sports. I got friends that say boxing is a joke and I get so pissed but look at this bullsht.

Wow, Pacquaio and Top Rank are back to there old tricks..
So a ATG, supposed best fighter of all time is fighting Bum Bum Rios???? At 147? Where he is slower than a turtle at 140???

Why isn't Pacquiao fighting Alvarado?? atlest its a small man coming off a win...

U must have forgotten that PAC is also coming off a lost, a brutal KO lost. Man U just never get tired of trying to descredit PAC. It's early as hell in the morning and u're already on a manny thread hating on him lol. Doesn't Floyd have a fight coming up in less than a week??

Rios is a dangerous fight for PAC, I don't care what anyone else says. If they were trying to make pac look good they would throw him in there with a pillow fisted fighter, not someone who can take and give out his own punches.

read the post again-is it a criticism of manny or of bob?

in no way, shape, or form is this post hating on Manny. You reached way too far.

You are in the minority on this being a dangerous fight. Rios is made for manny-else he wouldn't be manny's opponent after, as one poster called it-coming off a lost, a brutal KO lost
