    And Pac has been on PPV for so many fights straight, what can you do, get with the times. I wish it was all free like in Germany, but there's streams if need be

      Its a made to order fight for Pacquiao and that's great. Its about time we get to see someone take it to him like Hatton did. I'm not to fond of Rios after the way he handled his defeat against Alvarado. I hope Pac completely destroys him.

        It should be a great fight. Both are known for their give-it-all fighting styles.
        Hope no one gets seriously hurt.

          Great fight if all you care about is Manny looking amazing again. He is going to shorten the career of Rios, and I don't think it will be the least bit competitive. That said, I like demolitions on occasion, and I know what I'm getting when I watch this one.

              The only thing going for Rios is the fact that he's got best chin at 140. He's even slower than Margs, possibly even more flat-footed and has ****en zero ring IQ. The way he loads up his uppercuts... It's like he's working out with dumbells... Manny will have all the time in the world to pick him off. Brandon might as well borrow some of Robert's mitts to work in the ring.

                I dunno. Kinda' have mixed feelings on this one. I mean both guys are rarely (never?) in a boring fight. Both have will and heart galore, throw lots of punches usually and will be bent on redemption. Could be fight of the century.

                Thing is, if Pac is 70% or more of himself, it'll be an unusually cruel beating that Rios will take because he's so tough . On the other hand, if Pac is shot and his chin is cracked, do I want to see him be pummeled into submission by the likes of Bam Bam? And that's not even any dis on Rios, but say Pac had won another close one over JMM or even dropped a close one, Pac vs Rios @ one-forty-whatever would have been a cherry pick. Prime for prime they are just different classes of fighter.

                I'm sure I'll watch it at some point, but I dunno' about shellin' out for a PPV. Might if it's a stacked undercard.

                      Everyone loves action fights and you got two of the most offensive minded fighters going at it and everyone wants to see which one is going to bounce back ....Lol jk We all know bumbum getting breastfed To Pacquiao but everyone wants to see Pacquiao beat that Piņata up to at least have hopes of a great comeback.
