    I disagree with this. It's a good fight between two good fighters. So they are coming off loses. So what? Are fighters suppose to retire if they lose? Pacquiao fights for money. How terrible. Never mind that every other fighter today is also fighting for money and if they did not make money they would not be fighting.Money Mayweather who gets praise in this article is all about money.Bob Arum picked a location for the fight that will make his fighters and himself lots of money. Shame on that bad old shark for picking a good location for the fight to make money. What's the matter with that greedy guy?

      It's worth watching just to see if Pacquiao is still relevant anymore. The KO was brutal but other boxers have come back from those before. There's usually not much after that but he should have one or two good fights left. I'm not a big fan of Rios either but it's not like he took a beating in his loss to Alvarado. If it wasn't for the KO loss this would have been a garbage fight but it should be a interesting fight to watch for the unknowns from both fighters.

        Pacquiao has 2 consecutive loses (although Bradley fight was a robbery). I think he still has the power but not much of self confidence...

          He hasn't KO'd anyone at 147 though so maybe Rios can survive.

            Rios was ready to go against college wrestler Alvarado.

            Anything less than a Pac KO is disappointing. How is this on PPV? What!? Even Delahoya and Tyson had tuneups off PPV.

              I cant believe that people complain about this fight...

              Its an all action fight,,,
              Rios just got beat but its not like he got destroyed, and he also stopped the same guy...
              Manny is coming off a horrible ko loss, and rios will check that chin...

              I have been saying this for months now, this could be a roy jones-glen johnson fight where it was suppose to be an easy garbage fight for roy but he got ko'd again...

              Its make or break time for manny, thats why this fight is so interesting...
