Who is this Brandon Rios guy fighting Pacquiao?

[garfios]

Lots of people think Rios deserved at least a draw in his last fight with Alvarado and he KOed Alvarado before that fight. Rios is a dangerous fighter because he hits hard with both hands and has a very good chin. He is dead game, with good stamina and he never stops coming forward throwing bombs. He is easy to hit and Pacquiao should win by KO but I sure would not call Rios a cherry pick for anyone. If you fight Rios you will know you have been in a fight. He will hit you hard and often.

Not if you are a boxer like Abril...

He is a live fighter in the weightclass unlike guerrero made up to be somebody qualified as a star in the division.

If you dont know much about Rios, chances are you really arent that much of a boxing fan.

LMAO, so true

[Phenom]

because Manny Pacquiao small Rios Big lightweight will probably weight 30 pounds more then Pacquiao fight night

and also because Pacquiao was KTFO and just woke up #warrior

You mean the guy that handed Aydin his first career loss after jumping 2 weight divisions, taking nearly a year off and going through shoulder surgery? The same guy that then handed Berto his second loss?

The Ghost earned his shot, no one fabricated anything.

Come on man, don't be bigging up Aydin, he sucks. Use Berto at least

This fight shouldn't be PPV. Respect to Manny but How many PPVs have happened with the main event both coming off losses?

You're right. But casuals don't care that much, they like fireworks and they gonna get that. And there's the whole Macau thing, it's very clever. You might even get to catch Shiming make 750k for his 3rd 4 rounder.

So who is this guy? I know he is a former lightweight and light welterweight champ and coming off a loss but besides the obvious who is this guy?

Is this a credible fighter to fight Manny? Where does Rios even rank? Is he a good opponent? Does he have a shot at beating Manny?

What does it mean for Manny if he wins? What's next for him if he wins? Does that mean he is back because he beat Rios?

What does it mean if Rios wins?

Discuss.

Do you remember Tyson vs McNeeley? Well, Rios is McNeeley's dumbass, made to order to make Pac look good. Rios will probably charge into Pac like McNeeley charged into Tyson. lol
