    lol I don't think so, man. Rios doesn't bring anything Manny can't handle. It's gonna be like Pacquiao-Margarito II. It'll going to be target practice. The only question is whether Brandon will see the final bell or not.

        If he means he understands the sense of urgency for his career in defeating Rios, then this is good in terms of commitment and training. If he means he will abandon what works to chase a KO, it could mean curtains for Pac's career. A loss to a B- level guy like Rios while Pac is at the "past prime, still good" point of his career will tarnish his legacy even further than KTFO6 already has.

          I would normally agree with what you just posted, but not knowing how he will be like after the KO he took with a fighter like Rios is 50/50 IMO for Pac. Rios has heart, Is T-made for Manny,s liking. (Manny Likes to fight) Rios can take a punch. And most importantly he can give one too.

                  No, more like the examples below of Neaderthal style of blocking shots with your head.

                    I agree. Manny should just fight the way he always does. He'll batter Rios with no undue risk. If Pacquiao happens to fall, he might very well be done.

                    I'm not worried about the effects of the KO, at least not with Rios. As long as Manny avoids getting into unnecessary exchanges, he'll be fine. I would hate to see Pacquiao's career end because his punch-resistance was compromised.

                      I understand. I just don't think it's gonna happen. Manny may have peaked, but he's still well above someone like Rios. Brandon is a suped-up club fighter.
