Comments Thread For: Hopkins Shocked: Pacquiao is Brave To Take Rios Fight

[El Jesus]

Remember when everyone thought Roy Jones would beat Glen Johnson.

It would be interesting if history repeated itself. Unlikely though ... right?

i came here to say something similar. roy jones sat in front of that camera and said "NEVER AGAIN"

like glen johnson brandon rios isnt going to stop coming, hes not going to stop throwing. its going to be an issue.

Don't mind the twat

NSB hypocrisy at its best

Hugh Grant?

Don't mind that wanker. He's still mad and having nightmares ever since Hatton got his face smashed in the ring post by Mayweather.

He told everyone on BoxingScene.com back in 2007 that Hatton would smash Mayweather. Now he just looks ******, got saggy nuts and on antidepressants.

That's what the boxing game has become....you're SHOCKED and consider a great champion BRAVE when he challenges himself.

Flowmoez: Bernard doesn't know shiietz about boxing!! Rios is tailor made for PAC! This is a cherry pick for PAC to look good!! PAC should be fighting a legit WW someone like Paulie.

after that devastating KO, Pac should choose Likar Ramos for boosting his confidence back.but Pac is a warrior and wants to fight dangerous opponent..I think Pac will have a very hard and tough fight against a young and stronger fighter like Rios...his confidence right now is very low..However, Marquez fought the great and legend Likar Ramos after TKO win over Katsidis..

I expect Pac to win, and if he does not do so decisively he should retire. He better train well for this. He will need the stamina because Rios won't just go down like Hatton did. And that was a while ago.

But I won't say Hopkins is "wrong." Lol, people here know better than him. The arrogance of keyboard fighters.

Boxers make wrong fight predictions all the time. I don't think its arrogance to disagree B Hop on this one.

him and weebler have both been screwed up since that fight. i have to say that was a hilarious time on here, people were so convinced mayweather would lose or be stopped. the british invasion on here was intense.

no one saw that knockout coming, not even me.

It's a comeback fight which is why it's shocking, especially after taking a loss like he took one. Now he's getting back in there with someone who can rattle his brain with power, it's not that rios is a superb fighter by any stretch of the imagination it's that the kid punches hard like a mofo. Most other guys would take on a simpler less risky fight. That's why its shocking if he loses to Rios there is no coming back from it.

This is why Pac is Great....Let's it ALL Hang Out!!!

[Silencers]

I don't really understand why it's shocking. If Pacquiao is anything like he once was, Rios' style is tailor made for him, he won't have a hard time finding Rios at all and Rios will be moving up in weight for this as well, I don't think he will be as strong at 147.
