    I see what your saying, its not two top ranked guys going against each other.
    But I sure as hell would rather see Manny make $20 mill for this one than Floyd making over $30 mill for that crap fight against Guerrero.
    At least Pac/Rios will have some entertainment value even if Pac dominates him.

      Who brought up Floyd? Oh you did?

      Its not my money and i wont see a dime of it so if they want to pay him it then cool and i buy all PPV fights so i will buy it but it is not worthy of PPV especially when TR does not put on good cards. This PPV reminds me of Dawson v Hopkins or Mosley v Mora.

      But even if Pac dominates itll be cool but if Floyd dominates its crap you say. Got it.

        Good comeback fight but it should be on HBO not PPV.

          At the same time Guerrero had 2 fights a WW and was the #3 guy there coming off of 2 solid wins at ww. Rios has 0 fights at WW and is 1-1 at 140 and isnt even top 5 there,so your post really makes no sense.

            I think a far better question is who actually thought when Manny Pacquiao was dominating the division and so on that years on from then to now that he'd be fighting Brandon Rios?

            Seems to surreal, Rios must be somewhat in awe he knows exactly what's being asked of him and this is going to be extremely tough.

            If Brandon Rios and Manny Pacquiao can sustain 12 rounds this fight is going to be an amazing fight potential fight of the year, I don't see Manny going toe-to-toe with Rios as much as he would do so in the past.

            That's three really hard fights in a row Rios has had now, props to him for stepping up guys not the smartest but he sure isn't a *****!!

              lol...it will draw more than Floyd Guererro.

              Yeah...i for got. to be a great fighter you have to throw pot shots and run around the ring for 12 rds and clinch your way to victory. All while getting booed. :WORD:

                It probably will outsell floyd.guerrero. It's in china. Everyone will be there to see zou in the main.

                Or you just have to beat every 40 yr old you face in the ring!

                    Of course it will its in another country that very rarely gets fights. If it deosnt sell out i would be surprised. They sold out for a 4 rounder!
