Who is this Brandon Rios guy fighting Pacquiao?

Yeah this tune up talk is a little over the top IMO. Yes, Rios may be made to order for Pac, but then again Pac just got brutally KTFO. And Rios is a puncher. He's also 31-1-1. He's not some C fighter scrub that is a lamb to slaughter. He'll come to fight and if he finds a way to hurt Manny then the entire game changes.

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

Thats an absolutely dreadful comparison. Peter friggin McNeely???

I clearly member this. McNeely was wondering why that old lady did a hit and run and didn't stop her car to check if he was alright.

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.

Fairly easy fight (on paper) against a young well know mexican fighter. Set up because the mexican fans buy ppv in large numbers. Rios was also picked so paq can look good and trick the Philippino fans into believing hes still relevant. . .
