    Floyd did try to make the fight, he even went on camera say he only wanted the best and he wanted PAC. Well the next day he did say he never said that but all that count was he said he wanted PAC!

      Exposing me for what? Oscar had his tune ups off of PPV. Carr, Forbes, Gatti, Coley, Forbes, etc.

      You're a TR sucker though so I'm sure you'll be buying whatever they offer you.

      First time a PPV has main-evented 2 fighters coming off of losses.

        i wasn't trying to "expose" anybody, and that's really not what happened. i'm not here to own "flowmos, pactuurds, etc."

        oscar was off ppv twice in the 2000s, i believe, and a few more times in the 90's when he was a ppv type draw.


        my only point is that brandon rios is not a tune up. stevie forbes was a tune up. rios is at least in his prime and very good fighter.


        this should be a hellish fight. i just don't like that i have to pay 70 for it.

          yeah i know, you exposed him accidentally, by bothering to read his stuff carefully

          And right, the difference between Forbes and this is that this one will be fun to watch, guaranteed

            Not right now, no. But when it's an hour away I will be.

            I'm righting Pacquiao off as completely finished after that devastating KO to Marquez, if he comes back and looks great it will be huge for boxing. I'd love to see Rios land at least 1 big shot and see Pacquiao take it like nothing.

              I'm only intrigued to see where Manny Pacquaio is at. Does he have anything left?

              I'm not very excited about the actual fight but like all Pacquaio fights, I'll be watching.

                Anybody complaining about this fight is an idiot...

                Pac just got laid out, Rios has an entertaining style, and is in his prime....

                Yeah sure it will probably look like manny-david diaz fight but who no one knows how the ko will affect manny

                Remember THE GREAT ROY JONES got ko'd by tarver and then took a tuneup with Johnson and got Ko'd again even more brutally.... And it was the end of Roy as an elite fighter..
                Same thing can happen to Manny in this fight with rios

                  Rios is a tune up. He's done nothing of note at 140 let alone 147

                  Carr vs Delahoya was a better fight and that was off of PPV for christ sakes

                    maybe.

                    excited about it? no, but i think a lotta boxing fans are curious to see how much JMM's KO has affected Pac.

                      Even Bernard Hopkins said Rios is no tune up and super dangerous fighter for Pacquiao coming off that type of KO, and all the Flowmos were hating on him because he gave some props to Manny their enemy calling him brave for fighting Rios while they were calling it a tune up or bum fight.
