Manny Pacquiao expects an all-out slugfest when he fights American Brandon Rios in Macao in November.
The famous Filipino, once rated as the best boxer in the world, pound for pound, hopes to win again and silence calls for his retirement after two consecutive defeats.
Pacquiao, whose record now stands at 54-5-2, including 38 knockouts, returns to the ring on November 24. In his most recent fight, in Las Vegas last December, he was knocked out by Juan Manuel Marquez.
Undeterred, the 34-year-old Pacquiao has lined up a non-title welterweight fight with the aggressive Rios for his first fight in eight months and his first in Asia in seven years.
"It's going to be a good fight because Rios loves to fight toe-to-toe. He loves action in the ring," Pacquiao told reporters in Macao on Saturday. [Click Here To Read More]
